Guildford is at the northern edge of the patch and takes a substantial piece of work to justify the run, which is normally exactly what comes from there. From a single flashing to a full lead roof, Paul covers Guildford and the surrounding GU1 area as a matter of course, supply and fit or labour only.

Guildford is a cathedral city with a protected historic core, so a good share of the leadwork there is on churches, institutional buildings and listed property where the finish has to match what it replaces. Every job starts with a proper look at the roof rather than a price guessed off a photograph.
No. Travel is included in the price of the work. Guildford is roughly 34 miles from Brighton, and that is stated up front rather than added at the end. For anything more than a small repair, the job gets planned as a proper visit rather than a day trip.

It does. A good share of the leadwork in and around Guildford is on churches, institutional buildings and listed property, where the code, the profile and the fixing method all matter to whoever is signing the job off. That work is planned around approvals and access rather than started on a Monday morning.
Yes. Builders, main contractors and roofing firms around Guildford bring Paul in for the lead element they do not cover themselves, priced by the job or by the day on your material and your programme. Supply and fit is offered on exactly the same work if you would rather have one price for the lot.
Usually within a week or so, and faster where water is coming into the building. Guildford is around 34 miles from Brighton, so a look at the roof is straightforward to arrange. Quotes are free, carry no obligation, and you get the price in writing before anything starts.
