Service overview
What Is Remedial Roofing?
Remedial roofing means putting right poor work left behind by other roofers. Craig fixes roofs that were done badly the first time.
Who it's for
It's for homeowners who've had roof work done that is leaking, looks wrong or wasn't finished properly, and who want someone honest to put it right.
When you need it
Call if a recent roof job is leaking, if the workmanship looks poor, or if a previous roofer has stopped returning your calls.
Why professional help matters
Lauren D. said: 'From first contact I have felt that Craig has been honest and genuine.' When you've been let down before, honesty matters most.
The cost of waiting
What Happens If It's Ignored
Poor roofing work doesn't get better on its own. It usually gets worse, and the damage it causes adds to the cost of putting it right.
Risks and damage
- Leaks continue, damaging the inside of your home.
- Money already spent is effectively lost.
- Poor details can cause damage to other parts of the roof.
- Stress and uncertainty about what's actually wrong.
Common mistakes
- Letting the original roofer keep 'having another go' without results.
- Leaving it because you don't want to spend more.
- Not getting an independent view of the work.
- Hiring another roofer on price alone.

In detail
Remedial Roofing: The Detail
Independent inspection
Craig inspects the previous work and photographs the problems so you can see them clearly.
Common problems found
Poorly fixed slates, badly formed flat roof details, failed lead work and valleys that weren't finished properly.
Putting it right
Faulty work is corrected using the right materials and methods, including approved single-ply flat roofing systems where relevant.
Honest advice
You'll get a straightforward view of what needs doing and a free, no-obligation quote.
Areas covered
Perth, Blairgowrie, Dundee, Pitlochry, Alyth, Coupar Angus, Aberfeldy and across Perthshire and Angus.
Signs previous work wasn't done right
A leak that starts soon after roof work was done, slates that don't sit in line, sealant used where lead should be, flat roof edges that are lifting, or a roofer who stops answering the phone are all warning signs. If something doesn't look or feel right, it's worth getting a second opinion.
What Craig looks for
Common problems include slates fixed incorrectly, lead that hasn't been dressed properly, valleys left unfinished, flat roof coverings laid over wet or rotten boards, and details at edges and junctions that don't shed water. Craig photographs each issue so you can see it.
Putting it right
Remedial work fixes the root cause rather than adding another layer of patching. Depending on what's wrong, that might mean relaying slates, renewing lead, or stripping and renewing a flat roof with an approved Armourplan, Fatra or Sarnafil system.
Rebuilding trust
If you've been let down by a roofer, it's natural to be wary. Craig's approach is straightforward: look properly, show you what he's found, give an honest price and do the job he says he'll do. One customer, John H., now calls him his 'roofer of choice'.
Getting a second opinion
A free, no-obligation quote gives you an independent view of the work. Even if you decide not to go ahead, you'll know what the problem is and what it takes to fix it.
What to expect from your free quote
When you get in touch, Craig arranges a time to come and look at the roof. He'll go up, look at the problem properly and take photos so you can see exactly what he's seen, which matters on a part of your home you can't easily check yourself. You'll then get a clear price for the work, with no pressure and no obligation to go ahead. If something can be repaired rather than replaced, he'll tell you. If the roof is beyond repair, he'll explain why.
Why a small, owner-led team makes a difference
Ericht Roofing is a small, hands-on team led by Craig. That means the person who quotes your job is the person responsible for doing it, and the person you phone if you have a question. There's no hand-off between a salesperson and a subcontractor you've never met. Customers pick up on this in their reviews: they describe Craig as honest, genuine, punctual and hard working, and many come back to him for further work.
Preparing for the work
Before work starts, Craig will talk you through what's happening and roughly how long it will take. It helps to clear access to the side of the house where the work is being done, move cars away from the driveway if materials need to be dropped there, and let neighbours know if access passes their property. Throughout the job the team keeps the site tidy, a point customers mention again and again.
