Looking for a roofer

Hello,


First time post, as I was looking for a roofer myself. I used D&J about 4 years ago when we moved into our flat (Victorian conversion), which we knew had roof leaks. D&J seemed to do an okay job, but I'm not interested in using them this time round for a few reasons.


- their scaffolders were incredibly rude and damaged things in our neighbour's garden.

- the rudeness was not helped by D&J failing to tell me when the scaffolders were coming to take scaffolding down (8am on a Saturday...)

- The guys from D&J were an absolute joke when trying to install a loft ladder for us. I had to help this really unfit wheezing bloke lift the ladder up, then his mate in the loft exclaimed 'Wait, I can't see anything!' as if it somehow wasn't going to go dark when the ladder fit into place. Clearly not a planned operation... D&J didn't seem to think there was a problem that I paid full quoted price for the installation despite them requiring my assistance to lift and provide lighting for the job.

- I've already replaced some flashings and tiles on one side of the house this summer, and I'll find out shortly if water coming in on the other side is the result of their handywork not going the distance. But I'd rather another roofer take a look for the reasons above.

    • It certainly was😁 Bob S
    • Niko was recommended to me through a group chat for my road, where everybody raves about him. I soon realised why as he did an amazing job installing an outdoor tap for me. I needed it done quickly but had a hectic schedule, and Niko did everything possible to accommodate this, bringing the parts and working late on a Friday, having worked out the best solution for my maze of pipes. The tap looks great and works amazingly with good pressure. He made minimal mess and cleaned everything up, and charged me a very competitive price. On top of that he is delightful to chat to and willing to give advice on other matters. He’s a lovely man and will be my go-to for any issues in the future! Recommend to anybody in the Dulwich/ Peckham/Camberwell area!! 
    • We've used Aria a couple of times - this time a tap that was causing water hammer elsewhere in the house, he replaced it and checked all was well. He was prompt, quick in his work, and charged what he said he would. Will use him again.  
    • Hi I found a phone on the pavement near the bus stop half way up lordship lane opposite M&S and have handed into one of the estate agents there (KFH). Please call in there if you have lost it.
