Highlights

“Fast, reliable and friendly service. A fantastic job carried out Would recommend 100%”

Sandra JamesTrustATrader5.0 rating

“We've been having issues with birds getting in and nesting in our roof for the last couple of years. The guys came and put wire in where the nest was, and as there's a possibility of the birds trying to get in further up, they put more wire underneath all the tiles which separates my roof from our neighbours'. Very professional service and the job was complete within a week of contacting them.”

John Thomson4.8 / 5 ·

I contacted 4 local roofing firms following discovery of a lost ridge cap and damage to corresponding tile caps on my roof. Anthony from Gavin Davidson & Co was the first to respond, arriving at my property within 2 hours of my call. He gave me a straightforward assessment of the work needed and a reasonable price for the job. Within a further hour he had collected the required parts and brought a team to effect the repair. All done without pressurising for work that was not required or increasing the initial quote. Exactly what you look for in a roofing company. I will definitely use Gavin Davidson & Co again in the future if the need arises.

We had an issue with waste water coming through the drain in our shower after trying all the usual stuff I phoned Anthony on Sunday night he advised as to what the problem would be and what to do. He attended on Monday and within an hour the issue was solved . Ive used the company on several occasions for lots of different jobs always pleased with the punctuality and advice given. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company. I've no photo to show as obviously the repair has been done

Anthony came in person to provide a free quotation for some repair work required to the exterior of my property. He was incredibly knowledgeable and offered clear, concise advice while taking my budget into consideration. After the work was completed, Anthony also took the time to address some concerns I had about the roof, as it is not a traditional roof and I was unsure about its ongoing maintenance. His expertise and thoughtful guidance gave me real confidence moving forward. I would highly recommend Gavin Davidson and Co to anyone looking for quality workmanship and a reliable, professional service.

Adrian Russo5.0 / 5 ·

Anthony Davidson is honest and reliable. He has done roofing and roughcasting work at my old house with excellent results. In particular, 2 difficult chimneys after a firm before him blanked me and dropped me in it. I have recommended him already to others and will continue to do so. I will be using him in the future. To be trusted.

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 register
Never 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.
