ABOUT US
We are a family run Lochgilphead based company that have been in the area for 23 yrs.
At M Battle & Sons Roofing Services Ltd, we are dedicated exclusively to roofing, and over the years, we have developed a deep understanding and respect for the needs of our local clients. Our commitment to building mutual trust with our customers—whether they are on-site or not—allows us to deliver exceptional results. We believe that clear communication is essential, particularly in Argyll, where strong relationships with clients are key.
We operate with the understanding that every job we complete reflects not only our work ethic but also our high standards. In a close-knit community like Argyll, where word of mouth travels quickly, our reputation is everything. We take pride in the fact that much of our business comes from referrals and personal recommendations, and we strive to continue earning that trust through quality craftsmanship and reliable service.
The cost of a new roof depends on various factors, including the size of your roof, the type of materials you choose (e.g., slate, tile, flat roofing), and the complexity of the installation. We offer free quotes and site visits to assess your specific needs, so feel free to contact us for an accurate estimate.
A typical roof replacement can take anywhere from 3 to 7 days, depending on the size of the roof and weather conditions. For larger or more complex roofs, it may take a little longer. We'll provide a clear timeline before starting any work, and we'll always aim to minimise disruption to your home.
The best roofing material depends on your needs and budget. Common options include:
Slate: Long-lasting and durable, great for traditional homes.
Tile: Affordable and widely used, offering good durability.
Flat Roofing (EPDM/Felt): Ideal for extensions, garages, and commercial properties. Our team can guide you through the pros and cons of each material based on your specific requirements.
The lifespan of your roof will depend on the materials used:
- Slate roofs can last 50-100 years.
- Tile roofs generally last around 40-60 years.
- Flat roofs (EPDM, felt) usually last 20-30 years with proper maintenance. Regular inspections and maintenance can extend the life of your roof significantly.
Yes, we provide guarantees on both the materials and the workmanship. Most roofing materials come with manufacturer warranties, ranging from 10 to 50 years depending on the product. We also offer a workmanship guarantee for added peace of mind, ensuring any defects related to installation are covered.
Absolutely! We have a portfolio of completed projects, and we are more than happy to provide references from previous clients. You can also view some of our work in our online gallery or request to visit a recent job site.
If you notice a leak, it's important to act quickly. Contact us immediately for an inspection. We'll assess the damage and provide you with a solution, whether it’s a simple repair or a more extensive fix. Temporary measures can sometimes be taken to prevent further damage until a permanent repair is carried out.
In most cases, you do not need planning permission for repairs or replacements, as long as the materials and design are similar to the existing roof. However, if your property is listed or located in a conservation area, planning permission may be required. We can assist with the process if necessary.
We recommend having your roof inspected at least once a year, or after severe weather conditions such as storms or heavy snowfall. Regular inspections help catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs, and they help prolong the lifespan of your roof.
In most cases, you can stay in your home during the roof replacement. We work efficiently and aim to minimise disruption to your daily life. We will discuss any specific arrangements or safety considerations with you before we start the project.
