Hi,
We have been pestered by people knocking at our door to do roof coatings. They never give you a price but want to make an appointment for a surveyor (salesman) to come and see you and they always insist that your wife is present.
This smells of the old double glazing scams where they start at £10K and then work thier way down to £3K after 4 hours in your house and phone calls to their manager to extend special offers etc. provided you sign now.
Are there any reputable companies that do coatings with a legitimate guarantee as we actually do need our roof overhauled. Also any comments would be appreciated.

Think of it as more of painting your roof rather than improving it. The tiles should have a manufacturers guarantee around 40 years, painting it will void this. Also painting the roof doesn't solve any problems under the tiles i.e.rotten battens, damaged felt. They'll get called up on it in a few years. A complete overhaul isn't far off what they charge in some instances.
