Highlights
“Great roofers. Communication was quick and they answered all of my questions well. The job looks great and a very clear improvement on the previous Roofing. It looks great and trustworthy. I would recommend this firm.”
“Even though the work was a smaller job (fixing blown guttering on roof and cleaning and sealing conservatory guttering), I felt I got the same standard of service I would for a much larger job. Communication was excellent from start to finish and everything happened in a timely and professional manner and according to what had been discussed and in line with the quotation. I was very impressed and will certainly use Essex Roofing Limited again.”
“Trustworthy and efficient. Essex Roofing Ltd were a local company who were friendly and helpful to deal with. These roofers came and did the job on time, and cleared away after finishing their work. Altogether a good experience.”

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.
