“Daniel Ellis did an excellent job fixing our leaking roof. He was very honest by explaining that there was nothing actually wrong with the existing flashing -- all that was required was to replace some roofing clips to hold everything in the correct place. The job was completed to our total satisfaction and he refused to accept a penny. What a thoroughly decent honest guy!”

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 7 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

“Prompt response and matter was dealt with efficiently and cleaned up afterwards. Would use again if needed in the future and would recommend to others looking for roofing work. Thanks for your help.”
“This trader did not even climb a ladder to inspect the garage roof to assess. Merely said he could quote from ground level. Quote never arrived!”

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.
