“Having just moved into my new property a few issues came up in the home buyers report to have quoted, so I left a job on check a trade. A few companies contacted and came out to see the job, most wanting to redo the whole roof which I didn't feel was necessary. Will came out and actually got on the roof to have a proper look at the job. He gave me a fair quote and was out to do the work with his workmate a couple of days later. No fuss, no mess left just got the job done even fixed my garage door with some WD40. I would recommend Will highly he is fair, honest trader who gets the job done 😃”

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.

Highlights
“William came over to check my roof after I posted my job here. He was professional and helpful and explained the different options I had in-depth. The work was completed shortly after his first visit and I appreciated how professionally and efficiently the job was completed. Great experience and I will definitely get in touch for future work.”
“William was very helpful, willing to check the roof quickly as water was pouring in via the ceiling. He was quick to find out that someone on the roof had left the roof door open, and didn't charge for coming out. What a gent!”

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.
