Why us

Why Chelmsford homeowners choose Sherlock Roofing

Chelmsford has Victorian terraces near the city centre, inter-war semis in Broomfield and Springfield, and plenty of flat-roofed extensions and garages. Slipped tiles, tired felt and leaking valleys are the usual jobs. We find what has actually failed, show you photos and put the price in writing first.

FAQ

Common questions

How quickly can you come out?
For active emergencies we usually get someone out the same day or next morning. Standard quote visits are typically within 2-3 working days, scheduled at a time that suits you. We can also survey the roof by drone, so nobody has to climb up just to look.
Is the quote really free? Will you pressure me to book?
Yes, completely free, with no hard sell. We give you a written quote and follow up once and that's it. Most of our customers compare a few quotes; we're happy to be one of them.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full public liability and employer's liability insurance. We're happy to email a copy of the certificate before any work starts. Just ask.
What does your guarantee on new roofs cover?
Every new pitched roof we fit comes with a 25-year guarantee on our workmanship, and every new flat roof a 15-year one, in writing. If something goes wrong because of how we fitted it, we come back and put it right at no cost. Repairs are priced in writing with photos before we start, and we explain what is covered for your job on the quote.
Do you work outside Chelmsford?
Our core area is Chelmsford, Writtle, Broomfield and surrounding villages. We can occasionally take jobs further afield, but it's best to call and check.
Do I need to pay anything up front?
For repairs, no. You pay on completion once you're happy. For larger jobs we ask for a materials deposit once the job is booked, then the balance on completion.
