Six grand is right ..Martin how did you know that?...Roofer told me that if I tried to claim for it all they will say that it is 45 years of wear and tear and is not covered...Said to claim for damage to back corner  of roof for 2.5 grand and that will probably go for that...What do ya think I should do...Don't be nasty now!

if you have gaff insurance call out the assessor first let them tell you what your entitled to .roofer wants cash for a reason .you paid  the premiums so make the claim .

I'm too honest for this..Loss adjustor says he won't consider the claim until he sees a detailed quote ...A nyways I posted because I can see that tradesmen have got greedy again but taxis are not making the bug bucks per hour.

Get the slates replaced and waterproof it and ya could get years more out of the old roof.Sometimes the lads are pulling numbers out of their holes to get more work.I repelaced a few tiles on me own gaff a few weeks ago for a few euro.The only guy we knew was too busy even though we told him it was leaking.If yer afraid of heights send the wife up the ladder.

Boola ring around and get a survayor cost you about a ton .Get him to give it a coat of looking over cant see how timbers which are usually treated would rot over 45 years .You probably only need to strip back a few slates /tiles and redo the membrain or it might just be a problem with the flashing around the chimney .Get a n independent assessment tnen go from there .

Dont be silly I couldnt climbe into the attic .Most roofers are spoofers .I would pay an independent enginerer as I said about a ton.Makes no sense to spend coin you might not need to spend .

Chartered Surveyor..........€400-500 for an assessment. Do you still watch Out of Town with Jack Hargreaves with those prices?

I've seen him around town but always looks like he's late for an Airport pickup.I reckon he would be less stressed just working the cab normally and getting paid to sit in the traffic.
