Highlights
"Master builder knows his trade inside out very knowledgeable and excellent communication. You always know where you stand with his work also supplies Photos off work before and after."
"I have used Billy of Jesmond roofing many times over the last 10 years. He is a great character and absolute perfectionist. He will not allow anything except perfection, - which is unique in the dodgy world of cowboy roofers. I would give him 11 out of 10 in everything except time / reliability. This is because his work is soo weather dependant, he cannot risk coming and opening up your roof if there is a rain possibility. Simililarly, if he has an emergancy call, he has to attend when my work can wait a few hours. This is typicall of all roof work, - but he is honest about it."

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.
