Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Highlights
“Outstanding service – couldn’t recommend Barrow Roofing enough! From start to finish, the whole experience with Barrow Roofing was completely stress-free and exceeded all expectations. Communication was excellent throughout, with everything clearly explained and regular updates given, which made the whole process easy and reassuring. Elliott arrived exactly as arranged for the initial consultation and was polite and extremely professional at all times. He was 100% reliable, incredibly hardworking, and clearly takes great pride in his work. The standard of workmanship was first-class, with real attention to detail, and the job was completed efficiently and to a very high standard. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, which was greatly appreciated. I’m absolutely delighted with the final result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Barrow Roofing to anyone.”
“I had a brilliant experience with work done by Elliott and colleague by Barrow Roofing LTD. Very easy to deal with and Elliott gave me a fantastic and more than fair price. The workmanship was second to none, and not only looks great, but more importantly, my bay window roof is now water-tight. I had the bay window roof replaced, fascia boards replaced and same with soffit's. Not only that, but because mine was an emergency with water leaking through to my interiors, Elliott moved me up the queue in their very busy winter schedule. I can't thank them enough or recommend them enough. I would not hesitate to use them again. Just an outstanding service from start to finish. To both you guys, Thank you very much indeed. It was such a relief to get this work done so competently and professionally. Barrow Roofing fully deserve all this praise and more. Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year to Barrow Roofing and employees. Thanks again - Leandro Romano”
“Polite and professional team, easy process, looks great!”

Elliot is great, he's done work for me previously too. He's friendly, responsive to communication and reliable. The only reason I have given 4 stars not 5 for quality is because it hasn't rained yet, so, I haven't tested my guttering. It looks good though. A pleasure to deal with!
Shaun has done work on our roof and other parts of the house for 20+ years. We have always been overjoyed with the work done and value for money. Shaun is trustworthy, reliable, professional and friendly. Thanks a million.
Shaun has provided excellent service for me on several occasions, I can sincerely recommend him.

Many thanks Danial we are happy you were satisfied with the service provided.
New Velcos windows replaced and pointing to roof.
Elliott took a while to fit our work into his schedule. However, when work started, he was clear in his communication and very accommodating with our roofing repairs. He replaced guttering, re-bedded the ridge tiles and replaced broken tiles. He was polite, punctual, very tidy and a good communicator. Elliott is also going to complete some flashings on our bay window. I highly recommend him.

Hi Olivia, thank you so much for this glowing review. As a growing company with high demand, we appreciate that our lead time can be slightly longer. We thank you for your patience, and are delighted to see that our service was up to the impeccable standard we always strive to achieve.
New gutter and fascia board, slates replaced and dry edging.
They are very professional and keep everything tidy and on time. Did a good job for my roof. I am very happy with the results. I will recommend them to others.

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.
