South Yorkshire Roof Repairs is the real deal. Last Summer, they replaced our soffits, fascias, and gutters, and put a fibreglass roof on the front bay window. Today, at 8am, Tom arrived to shorten the downpipe they had fitted at the back of the house. It was a minor adjustment but a necessary one to give us proper access to unblock the drain. When I phoned bossman Dave about this yesterday afternoon, he did what few other tradesman would do: accepted responsibility, got it sorted and refused to charge us. 'We look after our customers', he said. They do.

Cannot recommend enough. Our roof started leaking the day before we were supposed to go on holiday and Dave and team managed to make the roof watertight and safe within 12 hours of posting the job on Checkatrade. Absolutely amazing team with great communication.

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.
