Statutory notice roof repairs in Stockbridge — common questions
What is a statutory notice for roof repairs in Stockbridge?
It's an order requiring owners of a shared building to carry out essential repairs — common on Stockbridge tenements. We survey the roof, quote the works, and bill each owner a fair share, with photos and paperwork throughout.
How is the cost shared between owners in Stockbridge?
Usually by the title deeds or an equal split between the flats sharing the roof. We set out each owner's share clearly before work starts and liaise with the factor so there are no surprises for Stockbridge owners.
Who is the best roofer in Stockbridge?

Our yard is in Leith for fast local response, and we cover everything in Stockbridge from a single slipped slate to a full re-roof.
How much does a roof repair cost in Stockbridge?
It depends on the roof, the access and the materials. As a rough guide, minor slate or flashing repairs in Stockbridge typically start in the low hundreds of pounds, while a full re-roof runs to several thousand depending on size, pitch and access. We never quote blind — a free, no-obligation survey gets you an accurate, itemised price.
Do I need a repair or a full re-roof?
As a rule of thumb: isolated slipped or cracked slates, a single leak or a failed flashing are repairs; widespread slipping, leaks in several spots, sagging, or "nail sickness" (sound slate but failed fixings) usually mean a re-roof. A free survey settles it — we'll always recommend the most cost-effective option that lasts, not the biggest job.
How long does a slate roof last in Edinburgh?
A natural slate roof in Edinburgh typically lasts 80–150+ years. The slate itself rarely wears out first — the fixings (nails), lead flashings and timbers usually fail before the slate does, which is why re-fixing and "nail-sickness" repairs are common on older roofs in Stockbridge rather than full slate replacement.
