Recommended roofer

I?d like to recommend Steve Evans of S Evans Roofing (07810 202130 or [email protected]). He is local to the area and recently completed a flat roof investigation and fix for me. I found Steve via CheckaTrade, where he has very positive feedback. I use the ED Forum to find good local tradespeople so wanted to recommend Steve here. Steve was looking into a tricky slow leak from a balcony which sits above a flat roof structure. I?d been quoted significant amounts by 2 builders to take up the flagstones and insulation of the balcony structure - with one telling me the answer was a full new roof. Steve undertook a more local/appropriate investigation of the area above the leak and talked me through his findings so that I could follow his thinking. The issue was nothing to do with the flat roof asphalt, which was intact and in good condition. What was actually needed was to improve the flow of water through the side gutter to stop it backing up and working its way under the lead fold. Steve put in place a sensible fix to do just that at a fraction of the cost quoted by my builders. He?s a nice guy, comes when he says he will and is clearly knowledgeable. A good find, so passing his details on.

I approached Steve Evans based on this recommendation - our issue was also related to a flat roof - and I thought he was thoroughly decent. He was responsive (it was a leak so we didn't want to hang about), arrived when he said he would and didn't try to oversell a solution we didn't need. I got in touch with him by phone: 07810 202 130.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
