A Faster, Safer Alternative to Scaffolding for Quick, Awkward, Hard-To-Reach Jobs

At Boomdob, we know how frustrating it is to maintain or repair high or awkward parts of your home — especially when it’s a small job that doesn’t justify the cost, time, or disruption of scaffolding.  Sometimes scaffolding would even need to go on a neighbour’s property — and they won’t allow it.  Whether it’s gutter maintenance over a conservatory, a slipped roof tile emergency, or cladding repair you just can’t safely reach, these quick hard-to-reach jobs are difficult and risky to tackle yourself

That’s where Boomdob comes in. We do your quick at-height jobs for you using our own cherry picker, combining 30 years of roofing and cladding experience with the equipment to reach what others can’t — quickly, safely and efficiently with minimal disruption. No scaffolding. No delays. No extra tradesmen — which means you save time, money and hassle compared to traditional scaffolding. Just the job done properly, first time

The Hard-to-Reach Work on Your Home We Take Care Of — Quickly and Safely

Fast Roof Repairs, Leak Detection & Roof Surveys

We carry out quick, skilled roof repairs, maintenance and surveys without the delay or cost of scaffolding and ali towers — ideal for homes where roof access is too high or awkward for ladders. Using our own cherry picker, we safely access slipped or broken tiles, ridge damage, flat roof issues and more, installing tile vents and handling minor lead or verge repairs as needed. Regular roof maintenance helps prevent bigger problems down the line, and if you’re dealing with leaks, Dob can quickly trace the source and carry out targeted repairs. We also provide clear, photographic roof surveys to assess condition, identify issues, and support planning for larger roofing works

Cladding Repairs & Maintenance

Cladding is Dob’s specialist trade, with decades of hands-on experience diagnosing and fixing faults others miss. We carry out cladding repairs and maintenance on properties where access by ladder isn’t safe or practical — using our own cherry picker and working without the delay or cost of scaffolding and ali towers. Whether your home has timber, fibre cement, composite or metal cladding, Dob can identify and repair a wide range of issues — from rotting timbers, blocked weep vents, and loose or damaged panels to failures caused by poor installation or workmanship. Leaks inside the home are often traced back to cladding that’s been badly fitted or finished, and Dob knows exactly what to look for. He identifies the root cause and carries out precise, lasting repairs — not just cosmetic fixes. If your cladding has failed, come loose, or never worked as it should, Boomdob can put it right

Glazing Repiars & Servicing

From cracked or misted double glazing to failed seals, slipped units, or loose frames, glazing repairs often mean working at height where a ladder won’t do the job safely. Boomdob provides a smarter solution. Using our own cherry picker, we carry out high-level glazing repairs and servicing — including UPVC window repairs, double glazing resealing, and frame adjustments. No scaffolding. No towers. Just quick, professional glazing work done safely and with minimal disruption to your home

Gutter Clearing & Repairs

Blocked gutters from moss, leaves and debris can lead to water ingress, damp, mould, and long-term damage to your home. Our service is ideal for properties where gutter access is difficult — such as tall buildings, awkward extensions, or roofs above conservatories — where ladders aren’t safe or suitable. Using our own cherry picker, we clear out debris safely at height and carry out any necessary repairs or gutter replacements — all without the delay and cost of scaffolding or ali towers — to keep water flowing and your property protected

Soffit & Fascia Repair & Installations

Boomdob carries out soffit and fascia repairs of all sizes, as well as partial installations in areas where access is awkward or too high for ladders. Whether it’s replacing a damaged section above a conservatory, installing new boards on a tricky extension, or working at height on larger buildings, we use our own cherry picker to get it done safely — without the hassle of scaffolding and ali towers. This service is ideal for targeted repairs and one-off installations, rather than full roofline replacement

Storm Damage & Emergencies

When storms cause roof damage, Boomdob delivers fast, safe emergency repairs without the delay or cost of scaffolding or ali towers. This service is for damage that can’t be safely reached by ladder — such as high or awkward roofs where urgent access is needed. Whether it’s slipped roof tiles, dislodged ridge tiles, broken vents, sudden roof leaks, or fallen tree branches that have caused damage or need removing, we act quickly to secure the area and prevent further issues. Using our own cherry picker, we get straight to work. For more serious problems, we can install temporary make-safes to keep your home watertight while full repairs are arranged. It’s the ideal solution when quick, professional action is essential

Pigeon Proofing Solar Panels

Pigeons nesting or perching under your solar panels create a mess, noise, and potential damage — and can reduce the efficiency of your solar investment. But accessing them is often difficult, and scaffolding can be expensive, obstructive and time-consuming, leaving you stuck with the problem. Using our own cherry picker, Boomdob can access your roof quickly, safely and efficiently to install pigeon-proofing mesh that blocks the gap between the panels and the roof. We also remove nesting materials and clean up pigeon mess — saving you time, money and frustration

Chimney Removal & Roof Patching

Boomdob can safely remove the external portion of your chimney without the need for scaffolding or unsafe ladder access. Using our own cherry picker, we carry out chimney removals quickly and efficiently — ideal for homeowners looking to modernise their roofline or eliminate problem stacks. We also patch and make good the roof so it blends seamlessly with the surrounding tiles, leaving no visible trace that the chimney was ever there

 

Flue Installations for Wood Burners

If you’re having a wood burner installed, it’s worth checking whether scaffolding is really necessary. In many cases, Boomdob can install the external flue down the chimney safely and efficiently using our own cherry picker — completing the work for your HETAS-registered installer in a fraction of the time, and at a fraction of the cost, compared to traditional scaffolding

Chimney Cowl Fitting & Replacement

Fitting or replacing a chimney cowl is rarely a quick or safe job with just a ladder — especially on awkward roofs or high ridgelines. Boomdob makes it faster, safer, and more convenient. Using our own cherry picker, we carry out quick chimney cowl installations and replacements, protecting your home from rain, birds, and downdrafts. No scaffolding. No towers. Just safe, professional work done quickly and with minimal disruption to your home

Bird Deterrent Installations

Boomdob installs bird deterrents such as anti-roosting spikes, netting, and other systems in areas that are difficult to access safely by ladder. Whether the solution has been specified by your pest control provider or you’ve chosen the type yourself, we carry out the installation quickly and efficiently using our own cherry picker — with no need for scaffolding. Ideal for rooflines, ledges and other awkward spots, we help keep your property protected from nesting birds and the mess they leave behind

Vegetation Removal From Roofs and Chimneys

If plants, moss or other vegetation have taken root on your roof or chimney, they can cause serious damage over time — leading to water ingress, cracked tiles, and structural wear, especially in freeze/thaw conditions which we have. They’re also unsightly and can make your property look poorly maintained. Boomdob removes roof and chimney vegetation quickly, cleanly and with minimal disruption, using our own cherry picker to access areas that can’t be safely reached by ladder. No scaffolding, no mess, no faff — just a fast, effective solution

Light Tree Work & Branch Removal

If you need branches pruned or removed, Boomdob can carry out the work quickly and safely using our own cherry picker. This is especially useful where branches are overhanging buildings, blocking light, blocking access, or threatening overhead cables — situations where using a ladder isn’t safe or practical. We also take down trees from the top where they’re not large enough to need a tree surgeon, but still too big to remove safely without cutting from height. We’re not tree surgeons, but we offer a fast, efficient solution for light tree work that doesn’t justify the cost or disruption of full-scale tree services or specialist equipment

Balcony & Ballustrade Repairs

Boomdob carries out safe, efficient repairs to balconies and balustrades — including fixings, panels, and structural issues. With hands-on experience installing these systems earlier in his career, Dob brings practical knowledge that ensures repairs are done properly, not just patched over. Whether your balcony is suffering from damage, wear, movement or corrosion, we can inspect and carry out targeted repairs using our own cherry picker — with no need for scaffolding or risky ladder work

Aerial & Satellite Dish Removal

If you’ve got old or unused satellite dishes and TV aerials on your roof or chimney that can’t be safely reached by ladder, Boomdob can remove them quickly and with minimal disruption. These fixtures are often left behind after upgrades or disuse and can become rusted, loose, or simply unsightly. Using our own cherry picker, we access high or awkward areas safely — with no need for scaffolding — and carry out the removal efficiently and cost-effectively. Whether it’s a single dish or multiple aerials, we’ll help restore a cleaner, tidier roofline

Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal

Moss bombs be gone! Boomdob makes roof cleaning safer, easier, and more thorough — especially on properties where access is awkward or scaffolding would usually be required. With the reach and flexibility of our cherry picker, and a jib that lets us get closer to the roof surface, we can access difficult areas and remove moss, algae, and grime properly — not just from the edges, but right across the roof. We can also apply a treatment spray afterwards to help prevent moss and algae from growing back. Whether you’re tackling years of buildup or simply want to improve the look of your home, we get the job done efficiently and with minimal disruption
