Can anyone recommend a good roofer?

[artined]

Hi I am trying to get a few quotes for a roofing job since I need several for my insurance claim.

If you have experience of a good roofer I would appreciate hearing from you.

Many thanks!

If you search this site for roofers there should be a fair few recommendations, I think Russell from RGR Roofing has a fair few good reviews - also see http://www.freeindex.co.uk/profile(rgr-roofing-building)_440291.htm

Good luck!

I would highly recommend Darren Long, just done some long overdue work on our guttering - prompt, reliable, polite, professional and reasonably priced. Worked around times we were available. All round great service.

I have just had my new but botched/leaking roof repaired by Jeff Latouche and have to say he has done a fantastic job. The original roofers were uncontactable so I had 3 quotes and Jeff matched the other 2 but did a couple of extra bits above and beyond what I expected. He did a thorough clean up afterwards ,left it looking great and so far no leaks.

His no is 07904892111

We got quotes from recommended people on here and mybuilder.com - we went with Danny who wasn't the cheapest (nor the priciest) but was the most straightforward and the only one who actually got on the roof and had a proper look. Have used him for other works since. Highly recommended.

If your still looking good roofers here :)

[Forest1]

I'd also like to recommend Russel at RJP roofing, we got his details from the forum and used him for a flat we've now sold. Am about to get him to look at our house!

[johnnyninefingers]

We can recommend Russell at RJP wholeheartedly. He was very good, and honest about our problem, and gave us a good price too.

I would recommend John at Aroofa Ltd - he did a job for me in the Autumn. Really quick to respond to the initial call, punctual, friendly and reliable - good quote - and the job was done properly. There are other recommendations available on the Forum.

Danny Read has just re-done our back roof and he was excellent. He was reliable, reasonable, professional, totally trustworthy and did an excellent job. He managed to do it without scaffolding too. Tel: 07737131600

I know OP was 4 years ago, but I think this thread is invaluable for others looking for SE London recommendations online. Here's another recommendation for Danny Read / DR Roofing. Though I'm in Lewisham/Bromley border myself I registered to give my recommendation and I have no association with Danny. I found Danny on this forum and he was able to do the works without additional scaffolding costs (he works safely using a portable scaffold tower they erect themselves). So his initial quote was ?900 less than others. However once you have a roofer in, its a good idea to get them to do as much stuff as possible (re-paint soffits, clean gutters etc) He was very accommodating. Next time I'd try to itemise all work up front and barter a bit :) His team seem like trustworthy likeable chaps. The initial works required were to repair a very poor chimney removal job by another SE21 based company.

There do seem to be plenty of portable scaffold tower/cherry picker options, so it's worth researching roofers that are more flexible in this area whilst remaining safe. I did initially go for another recommendation here but they were let down by their scaffolders, so could not meet timescales. This actually worked in my favour because I found Danny.

As an aside, I've learned if you ever find yourself looking for recommendations from the checkatrade type websites look at the number of recommendations as well as the score. The company that first bodged my roof have 9.5 out of 10 on checkatrade but only 7 reviews. I suspect a good company will have more +ve reivews, as people are wary of leaving -ve reviews.

Hi

I would recommend Russell at RJP Roofing. He is now doing our second roof (different house) for us and we are always impressed at how helpful he is, plus his attention to detail is excellent. Feel free to contact me if you would like more information.

Tomlinson Roofing, a local SE London outfit, just did an excellent job re-roofing my property in East Dulwich. It's a small family business and they did the work themselves - no sub-contracting the job or anything at all dodgy. Their estimate was fair, communication excellent (plenty of updates on progress) and the work was first class. Nice people & I can't imagine a better experience for such a major renovation. They're members of all the appropriate trade associations (WHICH Trusted Trader, Competent Roofer etc) and their other reviews look 100% positive. I would definitely employ them again.

David O'Connell!

My old Victorian slate roof had been deemed by others beyond repair. But David painstakingly repaired it. That shows skill and dedication. And at a reasonable price. I've recommended him before and can only reiterate that, apart from doing a good job, he is reliable, calls back and turns up when he says he will.

If your looking for a roofer i highly recommend S C S Roofing services.

They did a amazing job with my roof.
