Roofing Installation or Replacement
Ben recently replaced our roof and from the first time I spoke to him on the phone to completion of the job the service was outstanding. Ben responded to my initial inquiry for a quote very quickly and came out on a Sunday to assess the work and provide a quote. We obviously had other quotes but Ben was the only one who brought some samples of slates and materials for us to choose from. His quote was very reasonable too. He booked us in very quickly, did the job without fuss and within the time frame that he said he would and we were VERY impressed. Ben even worked on his own on the last day in order to complete the work before Storm Eunice hit. I cannot recommend Ben highly enough, absolutely brilliant and we are really, really pleased with the work done. More...

Ben replaced the asbestos tiles on my two-bed bungalow with slate. From start to finish the service and workmanship was excellent. He was prompt and very fair with the quote, liaised efficiently with scaffolders, skips and neighbours, kept me informed at all stages and kept the site tidy and clear of clutter throughout. The work on the roof was carried out to a very high standard with a meticulous attention to detail, neatness and precision. Ben takes a pride in his work and goes the extra mile to do a good job. I am delighted with the result and can’t recommend him highly enough. More...

Roof replacements.
When carrying out a roof replacement first I would see if the client could keep the existing slates or tiles so that they could be reused to go back on the roof and minimise cost. Secondly alot of roof replacements will need new tiles or slates put back on the roof due to damage or age. When carrying out a roof replacement you would start with taking off all the existing materials. Then lay a damp course into the guttering along the eave course followed by a new felt, treated batten, slates or tiles and completed with either a cement ridge line or a dry fix ridge system.
