“It’s been a pleasure to have Kevin and his colleague Steve replacing our roof. They’ve carried out a significant amount of work on our house which lies in a conservation area. It was not an easy job - lots of rafters needed replacing and the roof was bowing significantly. Kevin is very good at communicating and giving updates as the work progresses, sharing photographs and discussing what needed to be done. The team were professional, hard working and experienced. Would highly recommend.”

Highlights
“Kevin was able to repair two leaks from chimneys on an old roof which proved tricky to do. Very methodical and highly experienced and I would thoroughly recommend.”
“Kevin was recommended to me by my surveyor to assess the structural integrity of a roof with solar panels of a property I am buying. Within a couple of days of contacting him, he had arranged the appointment with the estate agent and been to inspect the roof. His report was detailed and thorough. I have been very impressed with his efficiency, knowledge and helpfulness and will be contacting him again for any future work.”

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.
