## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "We are super pleased with the work that Dean carried out for us at home, it's our second time using Dean (D Whiteman and Son) and we honestly can not fault anything! Dean was quick to respond to our initial quote request, provided a time he was available to fit us/ the job in. He turned up on time (something which is a bit hit and miss with some trades people- not Dean!), kept us in the loop throughout the work, and was clean and tidy. We cannot recommend Dean enough, he will be coming back to tile our kitchen soon!"

> "This team of father and sons are superb. Not only are they polite and professional, they are absolutely spot on with their work ethic and results. I met and discussed the job with Ryan who saw it through with every detail being ticked and completed to perfection, with Dad being the tiler and wow what a super job! I could not recommend these chaps enough!"

## Before you hire a roofer
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- Never 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.
- A major re-roof must meet building regulations. Prefer a roofer on the NFRC Competent Person Scheme (CompetentRoofer), who can self-certify the work and is vetted and inspected at least twice a year. Check they're listed at nfrccps.com before you commit.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
