## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I contacted Harris and Son Ltd for assistance in preventing birds accessing the insulation materials in the roof via open eaves. We arranged a site visit and Colin got a ladder from the van to fully assess the problem - and discussed possible solutions to prevent the birds from accessing the insulation material. On Monday 2nd March 2026, Colin and Eddie were on site. Colin explained the solution to the problem and how it would be implemented. Both Colin and Eddie were very friendly and good team workers and completed installing the solution to all the open eaves concerned that day."

> "Clear communication throughout. There was an initial on site visit to assess the work required in order to provide an accurate quote. The issue and work required to fix it were explained in detail. The team arrived on time and carried out the work quickly: replaced the bracket to fix the overhanging gutter in place, tighten the clip and sealed in the lose downpipe, cleared gutter of moss and debris. All areas left clear and tidy."

## Before you hire a roofer
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
- A major re-roof must meet building regulations. Prefer a roofer on the NFRC Competent Person Scheme (CompetentRoofer), who can self-certify the work and is vetted and inspected at least twice a year. Check they're listed at nfrccps.com before you commit.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
