After having various repairs done by Falcon in the past, we knew it was coming up time to have the full roof re done. Daniel came round, helped with picking the most cost effective, but also great looking tiles! We couldn’t be happier with the result. Would highly recommend Daniel for any of your repairs or re roofing needs!

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews
Very happy with the work. Carried out a great job which wasn't easy as had to work around Thatched area. Daniel and his assistant worked hard and did a really good job, very efficient. Cleared up after. Would highly recommend.
Superb, really happy with the work. Great lads, very polite and trustworthy. Daniel is excellent. If only all trades people were like this. Besides the high quality output and finished result, the customer service element is 2nd to none, something all too often missing with most trades people sadly. I will 100% be using Falcon Ltd and Daniel for future work needed.

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.
