These guys are true professionals and incredible at what they do. The whole process from start to end was faultless and exceeded expectations. I cannot recommend the team enough.

I cannot really express in words how fabulous this company is. I have received faultless service from both office staff and the guys who came to fit my wood burner! They are all absolutely delightful. Would not hesitate to highly recommend them.
Polite, friendly and informative! The quote provided for the work was competitive. Attention to detail was excellent and really personal service, taking time to explain the process of the works carried out and answer all my questions. Would definitely recommend and use again for annual sweeps!

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.
