Highlights
“Quote was competitive. Ryan turned up when he said he would. Job completed quickly with pictures provided to document the work. 10/10 would recommend”
“Top notch guys. Came from east Lothain to Fife in Buckhaven to sort my issue out that several other roofers tried to charge a fortune for and couldn’t find the issue. These guys were up there and within minutes they found it, done a few extra bits and bobs while they were there, chatted away, told me what was done and reassured everything was sorted, water tight and fine. Not in a rush to get the job done either, took their time and made sure it was done right. Refreshing to see! If like me you’ve had issues with unreliable, expensive roofers, get these guys and they’ll sort you out 👍🏻”

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.
