Verified by CheckatradeRoof and chimney repair.
Andrew came and had a look at repair that was needed to my roof and chimney. I agreed for it to be done after getting quote. Job was completed on Saturday after bad weather delay, which Andrew kept me fully informed about. Very efficient and careful workers, all clean and tidy when left. I would recommend and use this company again. Very happy with job done.
The team did a fantastic job fixing the drooping roof at the back of my house. They installed new soffits and guttering, completing the work in just two days despite the recent bouts of heavy rain. Competitive pricing, good communication, and excellent workmanship throughout. I’ll definitely have them back to do the front in the summer.

Good, prompt service. Polite workmen who showed pictures of the work they had done which was helpful. Repair is good as there has been no leak following heavy rain since. The workmen arrived several hours earlier than expected..

We used Wiffen & Sons for repair roofing job. They arranged and coordinated the front scaffolding and carried out ridge tile repointing, re-flunching to the top of the chimney, renewal of the lead flashing around the chimney, and fixed broken slates. Everything was clearly explained from the start, and the work was completed to a good standard. Despite rain during the job, everything ran smoothly with no issues. The site was left tidy. Reliable, professional, and easy to deal with. I’d recommend them.

Andrew and his team delivered a good result on a critical fix. After inviting proposals from many traders, Andrew stood out due to his extensive experience and reliable approach. He clearly communicated the difference his solution would make, and I am confident this will be a durable fix that serves us well for years to come. I highly recommend him.

Andrew & team recently replaced a pitched roof for me. I couldn't fault the quality of the work, the quote was very reasonable, and they took the time to explain the various options for replacement so I understood exactly the work that needed to be done. A pleasure to deal with - I'd recommend to anyone looking for a roofer in East London.

The roof of our summer house was damaged during a wind storm. Andrew assesed what needed to be done, gave us a fair quote, and did the work. Everything turned out great and we are very pleased with Wiffen & Sons work. Highly recommend.

Andrew Wiffen team did a great job on our flat roof extension. They arrived at 7.45am to get working straight away, hardly stopped and finished well within the day. I would certainly recommend them to anyone else.
We are happy with the work Andrew and Ricky did fixing the issue with our roof. They were punctual, polite and tidy. Sweeping away all the fallen debris and they cleared away the fallen leaves on our pathway.

Andrew and his team did a brilliant job repairing our pitched leaking roof, and replacing an old velux window. The job was done speedily and to a brilliant high standard. The work also comes with a 10-year guarantee. The price was fair and communication excellent too. Will be working with Andrew and his team again, and would recommend to anyone who needs a roof repaired or a window installed.

It is so rare to find a great company that delivers exceptional service even before being paid for materials and work. Andrew and Pam are truly trustworthy people whom I will definitely use again. Andrew replaced/repair the roof of a garage damaged by fire in just 3.5 days — all while I was on holiday! I came back to find everything perfectly done. I wish there were more people like Andrew and Pam.

This is the second time I've used Wiffin & Sons at my elderly parents' property, and once again, Andrew and his team did a fantastic job. They fitted new EPDM rubber roofing on a flat roof and applied flash banding to a conservatory. The work was completed to a very high standard, with great attention to detail and professionalism. The team were punctual, tidy, friendly, and very courteous. It's clear they take pride in their work and genuinely care about delivering great results. We're very pleased and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and skilled roofing services

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.
