Hi - I was hoping you guys could give me the benefit of your experience on a quote I received for a re-roof on my 1900s 4 bed semi-detached property.
It's more than I was hoping to spend by a considerable margin... we're getting more quotes in but what do you think overall? I was thinking around 15k, am I just being unrealistic?
I'm in Fife in Scotland.
Thanks
