7. Warranty & Guarantees ⚠️
🔧 Repair Work - NO GUARANTEE
IMPORTANT: Repair work to existing roofs, fascias, soffits, gutters, or roofline systems is provided WITHOUT GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY.
Reason: The longevity and effectiveness of repairs depend entirely on:
- The age of existing materials
- The current condition of the roof, fascia, or gutter system
- Previous damage, deterioration, or wear
- Weather conditions and environmental factors
- Hidden defects not visible during inspection
We cannot guarantee repair work as we have no control over the condition or remaining lifespan of existing materials. Repairs are carried out to the best of our ability, but we cannot be held responsible for further deterioration or failure of old materials after repair work is completed.
✅ Full Replacement Work - 20-Year Guarantee
Full replacement installations of fascias, soffits, guttering, and roofline systems come with our 20-year guarantee on:
- Materials (subject to manufacturer warranty)
- Workmanship and installation quality
- Structural integrity of new installations
This guarantee covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and weather conditions. It does not cover damage caused by extreme weather events, accidents, misuse, or lack of maintenance.
🚨 Emergency Repairs
Emergency repair work is intended as a temporary fix to prevent further damage. Emergency repairs carry NO GUARANTEE and are priced accordingly. We strongly recommend full replacement for long-term solutions.
❌ Guarantee Exclusions
Our guarantees do NOT cover:
- Damage caused by extreme weather (storms, floods, high winds above normal conditions)
- Damage caused by third parties (builders, other contractors, vandalism)
- Lack of maintenance or cleaning (blocked gutters, debris buildup)
- Alterations or repairs carried out by others after our work
- Natural wear and tear beyond reasonable expectations
- Damage to existing materials during repair work where pre-existing deterioration was present
8. Limitations of Liability
Maximum Liability: Our total liability for any claim arising from our services shall not exceed the total amount paid for the specific service that gave rise to the claim.
Consequential Losses: We are not liable for any indirect, consequential, or special losses including (but not limited to):
- Loss of business or profits
- Damage to property contents
- Costs of alternative accommodation
- Losses arising from delays beyond our reasonable control
Insurance: We carry public liability insurance. We are not responsible for damage caused by hidden defects, pre-existing conditions, or issues beyond our reasonable control.
Inspection Limitations: Our inspections and quotations are based on visible conditions at the time of assessment. We cannot be held liable for hidden defects, concealed damage, or structural issues that become apparent only after work commences. Additional charges may apply for unforeseen work.
