Highlights
“A SUPERB team to work with. Crew arrived early and began work immediately. Job completed exactly as discussed in the quote. Crew were helpful, friendly and professional. All waste was taken away and the site was left clean and tidy. I would happily recommend Abe and his crew to anyone.”
“Seriously leaking chimney and extractor flue flashing despite new roof on Edwardian house 10 years ago. Tried contacting the local roofer who’d done the work by phone, text and website, with no response, but I’d known Abe from work for my daughter and myself and trust him. He was on it immediately, very competitive quote in hours, and work all done one week later. Gary and his team were first rate, showing me photos of the previous work’s deficiencies, which required more extensive work than was quoted for BUT at no extra cost! I’ve suffered to my cost from cowboys… this team are the real deal.”
“Professional and trustworthy team. They explained everything clearly, used quality materials, and finished the work right on schedule. Couldn’t be more pleased.”

Very pleased with the work carried out by Abe and his team. Proffesional outfit who worked all day to complete the task of repairing my roof.
Verified by CheckatradeReplacing roof felt
Abe was able to come and take a look at my roof and provide a quote quickly. Once I gave the go ahead he arranged scaffolding & materials. They were then able to work on the roof a few days later. The team arrived and just got on with job at hand, all hard working people. Thanks again!

They arrived when they said they would and did the job quoted for. They worked. The team didn’t stop for coffee or a chat, they weren’t on their phones. They worked. Efficiently. As a team. An excellent job well done, and the same attention was given to clearing up at the end of the job.

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.
