“Pleasant, professional and good communication throughout. The work was completed within 2 days as per the quote and I hardly knew they were there. I had one minor concern and they were happy to come back to fix it. I would definitely recommend them.”

The work was carried out to a satisfactory standard and useful comments provided. The office and roofers were polite and helpful.
Verified by CheckatradeRotten Facias replacements with new gutters
Complete Cowboys. Paid Sam to have my rotten fascias replaced and caped along with new gutters. Instead they just capped the rotten fascias trying to hide the issue with minimal work. I complained and they came back to address. The next day it rained and water was pouring off everywhere. Gutters had not been put in place properly. They came back to address. Recently I noticed a joint in the new gutter was loose. On inspection clearly cut too short. I have spoken, emailed and sent photos and videos but they are ignoring me. I will need to pay for another company to come and fix their shoddy work
Professional job and great communication throughout. I would highly recommend Sam and the team.

Cant recommend these guys enough. Great communication before the work was due to start and the quality of work was superb. The price they charged for the work was very affordable. Very happy with their service.

Sam was very clear about the work that needed to be done and responded quickly to queries. The roofers themselves were efficient and completed the work in good time. As far as I can tell they did a very good job.

Sam the owner done site visit and then carried out the work , his work is just stunning the way the lead was done is just a piece of art it looked amazing our clients was very impressed
Verified by CheckatradeNew roof slates and leading installed
When Sam came round he couldn't have been more helpful, explaining the work he thought would need doing and why - and also managing to keep us calm and reassured as our roof was in a worse state than we'd realised. Sam was able to make a start on the work really quickly too, which was great as having a dodgy roof during winter tends to play on your mind. The team worked really hard to battle through some grotty weather to get the job done for Christmas and were so curteous with our neighbours too. We couldn't be happier with the work and we're even getting compliments from...
Roof Repair to fix a leak
Great job, good price, great people to deal with and Sam was very trustworthy.
Verified by Checkatrade
I am incredibly impressed with the work completed by East London Roofing. It was refreshing to see the suggested plan in writing before signing up. The team are professional, polite and treat your home with respect. Sam inspected the roof and discussed the options available to us, he took us through the pro and cons of each and then followed up in writing detailing the full scope of the work that needed to be carried out, and his final recommendation. After an intense process of reviewing potential roofers to work with, I am glad we went with them.

Sam was incredibly honest and diligent throughout the process. The work was done to a high standard and he was always more than willing to amend any areas we weren't happy with
Repair to Roof
Very satisfied
Verified by CheckatradeNew fascia and guttering
Sam and team did a very good job of replacing old rotten wood fascia and guttering at the front and back of the house. Also new fascia and guttering above bay window. They were professional and had no difficulty in relocating electric wiring attached to the old fascia which we had thought might be tricky. A good job done and we would use them again. Thanks Sam and team!

Great roofing company. Sam was the only roofer I had got to look at the work needed who actually explained what was wrong and what was needed to be done. Kept me informed throughout the process. Would definately use him again and would recommend him to others.
Excellent! Very communicative about what was planned, what was going on, and how to work around other trades on site doing other work. The quality of the finish is both technically good and visually impressive, and it’s been fun to have the team on site - they have been keen to get me up ladders to show what is going on. Compared to other quotes this was very competitive and despite finding additional work the quote did not escalate - very straightforward assessment of additional work, prompt re-quote, no delay to getting it done. Really recommend a call to these guys if you need work doing.
Verified by Checkatrade
Sam has an extremely courteous team of workers. He communicated exactly what was happening and when. Everybody was friendly and hardworking. I felt very confident throughout that the work was being done to the highest standard. I was very happy with the end result and the process. I would have absolutely no doubts in recommending Sam and his team for any job, big or small.

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.
