Highlights
"Mick was the only roofer I originally phoned (and I phoned 4 others) who responded with a sense of urgency, which I greatly appreciated given the leaking roof. He was quick to call round and provide a quote, and gave two different options that we could choose. He came on the day we agreed and was very efficient - he did a great job, providing a 15 year guarantee on the work done. I would highly recommend him and would definitely use him again should the need arise."
"A great job. The finish looks fantastic. Such an improvement."
"We were very pleased to be able to have a real natural slate roof fitted by Mick Hester this year. We had thought that we could only afford cheaper man made slates but Micks very competitive price allowed us to have the real thing. In fact his price was so good that our next door neighbour has also just finished having their roof replaced by Mick as well. His stage payments were reassuring because we only paid after each stage was reached and so we are happy to recommend Hester Roofing. Best Wishes"

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.
