Do I need photos to ask for a visit?

No. You can request an assessment without photos. If useful, we can ask for a couple of photos later. Never climb or move equipment to take one.

Will I have to pay before someone looks at the problem?

There is no payment to make an enquiry or for the initial local assessment. We confirm the visit with you, explain suitable options and provide a written quote before you agree to installation.
