Comprehensive Roof Inspections
Identify hidden issues and prevent costly damage with a thorough, professional roof survey.
About Our Roof Inspection Service
Your roof is your property's first line of defense against the elements. Often, minor issues like a slipped slate or failing flashing go unnoticed until they result in a major leak and significant interior damage.
Alpha Roofing and Building Edinburgh provides detailed roof inspections for homeowners, buyers, and commercial properties. Our experienced roofers thoroughly examine every component of your roof, providing you with a clear, honest assessment of its condition and any recommended maintenance.
Common Problems We Fix:
- Hidden leaks causing slow timber rot
- Slipped, cracked, or missing slates and tiles
- Degraded mortar on ridge tiles and chimneys
- Blocked or failing valley gutters
- Inadequate loft ventilation causing condensation

What Our Customers Say
Don't just take our word for it.
"We asked Alpha to inspect a roof on a house we were buying. They found some failing leadwork the surveyor missed and gave us a quote, which helped us negotiate the price."

"Very honest inspection. Another company told me I needed a whole new roof. Alpha inspected it and told me it just needed some repointing and a few tiles replaced. Saved me a fortune."
