looking for recommendations for a great local roofer, and good Damp specialists

Hello, I'd love recommendations from forum users (not businesses thanks) for a really good local(ish) roofer, and an excellent Damp company that people have had good experiences of using - I need a weird mystery Damp stain diagnosed! And I think I should get a roofer to check the seams/slates of a roof join to check it's not coming from there too. Thanks all so much.

Just wanted to add my recommendation for Russell Perring at RJP Roofing and Building. They just carried out a number of repairs on our house, the work is good quality and they were quick and the price was reasonable. 07852 972052 [email protected].


Steve Mumford has done jobs for us in the past and we asked him to quote in November. Strangely he never sent the quote after the site visit and didn't reply to various messages we left.

Hello, does anyone know if Russell Perrin is still operating? He has such good recommendations I would like to contact him. I sent a message a few days ago and tried calling with no reply and no a/m to leave a message. Maybe he's on holiday?

Sorry this is probably too late for you, but yes he is.


I texted him on Friday because I was concerned about the quality of the rebuilding of my bay roof which was recently done by others as part of an insurance claim (annoyingly, as he had done a very good job on it himself a few years back and it was still under his ten year guarantee).


He phoned me up within half an hour, said he would come to have a look at it the following morning (today - ie a Saturday), came as promised, told me exactly what had been done wrong (GRRRRRR), showed me on other nearby houses how it should have been done, and made sure I understood exactly what I needed to tell the builders/other roofers for it to be put right.


He also said if necessary he would come and do it himself (and charge the insurance company!).


I really can't recommend him too highly - oh and sorry but I've been misspelling his name for years, as I found out when I tried to google it - it's Perring not Perrin. Apologies!

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
