“Mike's quote was very competitive compared to others in the same trade. He turned up on time for a site visit and both my wife and I concurred that he was very knowledgeable in his field and that the job would be completed to our satisfaction. We arranged a day, he turned up with everything he needed and fitted our new stove exactly as planned. We are both very happy with the result and would definitely recommend Mike to anybody who needs a stove and flue fitted. Just make sure you get the kettle on...he's partial to a cup of tea. Thanks MIke !”

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.
