Highlights
"Cliff and his team were fantastic from the start. We had a small blip with high winds blowing up the felt before the roof went on and they were so helpful with getting everything sorted efficiently so no damage occurred. They are all incredibly nice, efficient and communicative - highly recommend!"
"Cliff and his team put a new roof for me on an emergency basis due to leaks on 29 November 2025.. They were all excellent. Highly recommend them."
"Really pleased with Cliff and his team. Always happy to answer questions and assist with the decision making process. Had a new roof fitted and very happy with the results. Have since recommended Cliff to friends. Cliff also assisted with work inside the property and very happy. Recommended."

Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
