I contacted AJ Tiling about a leak that I thought was coming from either porous tiles/degraded grout or a cracked shower tray. On inspection, Tony quickly identified that the problem was insufficient silicon between the shower tray and tiles - so a much cheaper fix than tile/tray replacement. Tony's response to my enquiry was super-quick, he arrived (for both the initial quote and the subsequent work) on time and was very friendly and professional. Very happy with the work, and would hesitate to use Tony again, and very happy to recommend him.

Roofing isn't licensed, so anyone can set up - and it's a trade with more than its share of cowboys. A big re-roof must meet building regulations; CompetentRoofer (the Government-authorised NFRC scheme) registers roofers who can self-certify that, and vets and inspects them at least twice a year. Check they're on it before you hire.
Check the CompetentRoofer registerNever agree to roof work from a cold-caller at your door or an unsolicited 'we noticed your roof' note. That is the classic roofing scam.
Get a written quote that itemises access (scaffolding or a tower), the exact materials, and the workmanship guarantee, not a vague day rate.
Be wary of demands for a large cash deposit; agree staged payments against work you can actually see completed.
