Recommendation for reliable roofer needed urgently!

Any recommendations for a reliable roofer?

Have a leak (I think it's the flashing) that will only get much worse after tonight storms!

I had contacted someone on Wednesday who comes highly recommended on here and they agree to visit yesterday but were a no show. And no response to calls, text and email either. So I'm not impressed!

Also tried McCanns - but he is off on a weeks hols.


So can anyone suggest a reliable roofer who may ( fingers crossed ) be able to get to me early this week to assess and repair my leaky roof?

That is the correct number for Russell, and he is extremely reliable so I'd be very surprised if he didn't call back if he actually received the text.


Possibly he is on holiday?


I also highly recommend him.

I sometimes have issues texting from my phone. The phone reports the message has been sent, but when I check the delivery status, it says 'waiting'. I only realised this after digging deeper into my message statuses due to friends reporting my texts weren't arriving. It's not that uncommon an event for both email and texting systems to be glitchy.

Hi


I'd really recommend Adam from www.adwo.co.uk and team. He's reliable and explains well what's needed, takes photos of the roof so you can see what's going on and is priced the right side of reasonable. He has done 4/5 roofs that I know of - everyone happy.

Unfortunately Russell was the roofer who let me down...

Anyway issue got sorted. Thanks to Brian from Dulwich Roofing.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
