Get Flat Roof Friendly With StormCheck

Get Flat Roof Friendly With StormCheck

Tuesday 01 May

StormCheck is a local Ripon-based family business, operated by business partners Colin and Neil in Ripon and surrounding areas.

From a background in the building trade, StormCheck can offer customers the satisfaction that their flat roof will be renewed safely, quickly and securely by a local, reliable small company.

“We don’t really have a sales pitch,” said Colin, “we are very honest and open, and don’t need to make any extravagant claims about our workmanship or products that we use, as their quality speaks for itself.” StormCheck are happy to offer a free, no obligation site visit and a full written quote for the work that needs doing, and they commit to sticking to the quote once the job is under way.

“We will never add anything extra on to our written quotes, so our customers can feel assured they know exactly what the price is for their job. Our work is backed up by guarantees and insurance which gives full peace of mind.”

The special Firestone EPDM synthetic rubber membrane that StormCheck use is guaranteed by Firestone for 20 years, and the work is guaranteed by StormCheck for 20 years and also protected by a 10 year HomePro insurance plan at no cost to the customer. “If a customer had any reason to call us back within those 10 years, the insurance plan means that even if StormCheck are not trading, our original work is still covered and the insurance company will then arrange for any necessary follow up work to be done by another reputable flat roof company,” explains Colin, “we are confident enough to offer this extra guarantee as we know our workmanship, our company and our materials will stand the test of time.”

As Colin makes clear, they don’t want to be called back again by unhappy customers - and this is why they do the job right first time. “In our time fitting flat roof systems, we’ve only been asked back once to a job, and that was something minor. That’s the way we like to work - do it once, do it right.”

A new flat roof normally takes a full day to fit, and the fully trained installers at StormCheck always make sure the site is totally cleaned up afterwards and all rubbish removed.

With summer fast approaching, it’s a good time to think about replacing any old flat roofs even before they start leaking. “House insurance policies don’t cover the cost of repairing your flat roof if there is a problem,” said Colin, “they will pay out for damaged contents in your house, but not repairs to the roof itself - so its wise to renew an aged flat roof before it starts to leak and have problems, as in the long run its much more cost effective and simple than dealing with a long and complex insurance claim when your old roof leaks and causes damage.”

If you’re planning to sell your house, felt covered flat roofs will usually be flagged up by any survey. To present your property to the market in order to sell at the best price, StormCheck recommends renewing the flat roof in advance. A clean new roof will also greatly improve your property’s visual appeal.

So, don’t put it off any longer! If you have a weary old flat roof in need of attention, that you look at and think, “One day I must get that sorted out...when I get chance!”….why not take advantage of the good weather and give Colin or Neil a call for a free home visit and written quote, and replace your roof before you have a nasty leak!
