Detailed reviews

Mr Willing4.8 / 5 ·

Very quick response to my initial enquiry. Reg and his men were very tidy and did more than was planned to a very high standard,

Jo4.8 / 5 ·

Reg and his team did a sterling job. They were always on site on time and approachable all the time. Reg came across unexpected issues, the process needed to resolve them were discussed with us and the work then undertaken promptly. We could always contact Reg easily and if he couldn’t respond immediately, he contacted us ASAP (which was never a long time). His team worked very hard, the weather was appalling, it was at the time of storm Goretti! We were very concerned at this time, as can be imagined, Reg always reassured us at all time, I will admit, I still didn’t relax, however he was right and it was all ok. They left the area lovely and clean at the end. I would happily recommend him and his team for any roofing problems.

Jock5.0 / 5 ·

Reg and his team have done work on our roof in the past to an excellent standard, for a competitive price. So after we discovered an issue with our guttering recently we asked Reg and his team to inspect the issue and see if they could sort it. Turned out to be less of an issue than we thought and Reg was kind enough to waive the cost of sorting out the problem. Would I recommend Reg? Absolutely. He's busy, that's earnt from the good work he does, but he's more than fair with his pricing and his team crack on and get the work done to a proper standard in good time.

Worth checking 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 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.
