Highlights

"I'd seen some loose flashing that had opened and was funnelling water in. Hornby roofing came to the rescue, told me it would require a proper permanent repair and they would be available in the new year. Gave me a quick temporary fix to get through the winter season, there and then he was on the roof and temp fixed the issue. 20 minutes he was done. I'm so impressed with his service I'll be renewing all the flashing next year, im that impressed I'm even considering using them to renew the roof as a whole job lot. Absolutely fantastic service! Cannot recommend highly enough."

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.
