House renovation – Choosing the right building contractor

If you own or are considering investing in a rundown property that requires repair, it’s critical that you take the time to select the right contractor to tackle any roofing work. Many empty buildings will suffer from deteriorating roofs due to lack of maintenance. When the damage is extensive, it will usually require a roofing specialist with experience and expertise to conduct a thorough assessment and carry out a professional job.

St. Albans based Stanleys Roofing & Building Ltd. is a trusted roofer and driveways contractor that can deliver such a job.

Roofing Work

When buildings fall into disrepair, some of the most common parts of the roof that require inspection are the tiles, chimney stacks and pots, valleys and the guttering. An attentive contractor will always fully assess a job, determining which areas they can repair and which will need replacing. Once the check is complete, and an itemised quote agreed to, all re-pointing and other remedial work will be completed to a high standard. Any items that need replacing, such as ridge tiles, should be in keeping with the existing roof.

Patios and Driveways

As with roofs, driveways and patios can also exhibit a sorry condition after a period of inoccupancy at a house. New hard material driveways, in either tarmac, gravel or block paving, can breathe new vibrancy into a tired looking property. Similarly, patios can also help create a fresh feel to a house and increase it’s rental or resale value.
