What to check when hiring roofers in the United Kingdom

MyTrustedTraders ranks on independent public evidence — no ads, no paid placement. Use these checks alongside the evidence on each profile before you decide who to contact.

  • Never agree to roof work from a cold-caller at your door or an unsolicited 'we noticed your roof' note — that is the classic roofing scam.
  • Get a written quote that itemises access (scaffolding or a tower), the exact materials, and the workmanship guarantee — not a vague day rate.
  • Be wary of demands for a large cash deposit; agree staged payments against work you can actually see completed.
  • Look for consistent reviews across several named platforms, not one polished profile.
  • Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.

How to judge a roofer

Independent, no-ads guidance — the trade-specific checks that matter most, the warning signs, and what to ask before you hire. Use it alongside each trader’s public evidence above.

Verify before you hire

  • Check the roofer is on the NFRC CPS register (nfrccps.com) — this means they can legally self-certify re-roofing work to Building Regulations and must issue you a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee.
  • Confirm they hold NFRC or CORC membership, which requires a physical inspection of their business and ongoing compliance checks — it is the strongest vetting a roofer can carry.
  • Ask to see proof of public liability insurance before work starts — NFRC, CORC, and TrustMark all require it, so a genuine member can produce it easily.
  • For older or listed buildings, check they appear on the NFRC Heritage Register — endorsed by Historic England for specialist slate, clay, and traditional roof materials.

Warning signs of a cowboy

  • A stranger knocks unsolicited and claims to have spotted damage from the street — this is the single most-reported doorstep fraud in UK Trading Standards data.
  • They ask for a large cash deposit upfront and have no written quote, no scheme membership, and no insurance-backed guarantee to offer.
  • No NFRC, CORC, or TrustMark membership of any kind — unvetted roofers have no independent audit of their work or finances.
  • They plan to work off ladders only with no scaffolding — this skips the legal working-at-height requirements and signals they are cutting every corner.

Questions to ask before you hire

  • Are you on the NFRC Competent Person Scheme register, and will you issue me a building-regulations compliance certificate and 10-year insurance-backed guarantee?
  • Can I see your current public liability insurance certificate before you start?
  • Will you give me a full written quote itemising materials and labour before any payment is made?
  • How will you protect the roof and my property if it rains before the job is finished?

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose a trustworthy roofer?
Compare the public evidence on each profile — how many independent reviews they have and across how many named platforms, the rating and how recent it is, any verified credentials, and the company record. A roofer backed by several named sources is harder to fake than one with a single listing.
Does MyTrustedTraders rank or recommend roofers for payment?
No. There are no ads and no paid placement. Roofers are ranked only by the strength of independent public evidence — no one can pay to rank higher, add a badge, or change their reviews.
Where do the reviews come from?
They're imported from named public review platforms and always shown with the source named — they aren't reviews written on MyTrustedTraders. We cross-check the same business across sources rather than creating new reviews.
What should I check before hiring a roofer?
Confirm credentials and insurance directly with the roofer, get a written quote, and run the Cowboy Checker on the business first. MyTrustedTraders helps you shortlist on the evidence — it doesn't replace your own checks before you hire.
