Roof covering
in Lasne
Isolated properties pile up square metres of roof and outbuildings that are often forgotten until the first leak. That is why roof covering comes back so often in our schedule in Lasne.

The context in Lasne
Why here in particular
What changes in Lasne is the context: large detached villas, renovated fermettes, outbuildings and stables, wide roof areas. Isolated properties pile up square metres of roof, plus outbuildings that stay forgotten until the first leak.
A roof is not judged by what you see from the street. What makes roof covering last is what sits underneath: the roofing underlay, the ventilation, the quality of the zinc joints.

Frequently asked questions
Roof covering in Lasne
The questions we get asked most often before this kind of job.
What warranty?
Ten-year structural warranty on the workmanship and manufacturer’s warranty on the materials. Both are stated on the quote.
Tile or slate?
Natural slate lasts longest and suits Walloon buildings well; concrete tile costs considerably less. The choice also depends on the pitch and on the setting of the street.
Does the whole roof need redoing?
Not always. One slope can be redone on its own if the other is sound. We tell you, even when it makes the quote smaller.
Do you come out to Lasne with no extra call-out charge?
Yes. Lasne is one of our 17 municipalities: the call-out is included in the quote, not added at the bottom of the invoice.
Other work in Lasne
While we are on site
Combining two jobs in one visit brings the invoice down. We suggest it when it makes sense, never to pad the quote.
