Job description

New & Replacement Metal Roof
Wellington

Published: 6 November 2011

I am in Khandallah, Wellington. The house is around 633 m2 so the roof (trough section aluminium, flattish) is not large. I was looking up at it yesterday and noticed weeds growing from the gutter in a corner of the roof. I got out the ladder but am afraid I chickened out at going up there. I have regularly cleaned other gutters in my time but those roofs were easily accessible for me, and also I'm older now and live alone so it's possible no one would hear me if I fell. So the job is: To clean out the gutters of my roof. With the possibility of painting the roof as well, if you think it needs painting and the quote seems reasonable. I've lived in this place nearly three years and had the house itself painted about 18 months ago. By the way, I took the photos from a bank in front of the house and contemplated stretching the ladder from there to the roof but chickened out on that idea too. The roof does slope slightly. There are gutters at front and back and also there would be smaller gutters at the back as the house is not completely oblong - a couple of rooms jut out at the back. November 7: I'm sorry I've "ignored" so many of the responses, but I've had quite a number of them, and think that getting three quotes will really be quite enough for a smallish job, otherwise it could be wasting too many people's time. Thanks again.

Lindsay did a really good job and is a pleasant, friendly person. He found a few other things that needed doing on the roof and in the gutters but still charged the quoted price. I wouldn't hesitate to employ his firm again. Very happy.
