Highlights
“We had the back part of our roof and extension done in November 2021 by another roofing company which they did a complete sham of a job and we had nothing but issues with it, mainly leaking in the loft conversion. We called them out over 10 times but they couldn’t fix the issue so then we were recommended J Shepherd Roofing by a friend. Josh came out and could see immediately what the issues were. He and his team redone the whole roof including the front for a very reasonable price and have done an amazing job. They also left no mess at all. We can’t Josh and his team enough for sorting it out”
Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for J Shepherd Roofing, including the highlights above. The 29 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
We found Josh to be eager once he got started, and the work was done to a good standard. We still have some outstanding issues, including scaffolding holes still unfilled, the skip still in our drive several weeks after the roof tiles were put up. The Chimney repointing caused dust in the process of doing it, plus lime to drip owed to heavy rain (should have tarp'd it)... and now the 'new' roof has mortar dust all over it. I'm hoping he will get round to fixing these three issues.

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself
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.
