Insurance-Backed Roof Repairs in Birtley
When a storm rips slates off a roof in Birtley, the insurer wants three things fast: a dated photo record, a written cause-of-damage report, and a repair quote that itemises materials and labour. We produce all three from a single visit. We're regularly on roofs close to the A1(M), through Lamesley and Kibblesworth.
- Same-week survey with dated, geo-tagged photos
- Written cause-of-damage report worded for loss adjusters
- Itemised quote split into materials, labour, access and VAT
- Direct liaison with your insurer or broker if you'd rather we handled it
- Temporary make-safe on the day if the roof is actively leaking

Insurance roof claims in Birtley — FAQs
Do you deal directly with the insurance company?+
Yes, if you want us to. Most clients prefer we send the report and quote straight to the adjuster and copy them in — it removes the back-and-forth.
How quickly can you produce the report?+
Usually within 48 hours of the survey. If the roof is actively leaking we'll make-safe on the day and write the report the same evening.
Will you match the existing tiles or slates?+
On Birtley roofs that usually means sourcing reclaimed to match — new concrete tiles next to 40-year-old ones stand out. We source and price the match into the quote.
Do you cover all of Birtley?+
Yes — DH3 in full, plus Gateshead, Chester-le-Street, Washington.
