Been having an issue with water damage to outer wall for about a year and half. We finally narrowed it down to the roof. Brain contact us straight away from post our issues. He came out the next day and je provided us with a quote. The job did unfortunately end up being a full roof renewal, I was so upset, but Brian was so reassuring and supportive and gave us the best deal he could. Sean and the team were amazing and carried out the work in just two days removing and fitting brand new roof to the best standard. I really can't recommend Brian and his guys enough!! Fantastic

Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Caretaker & Sons Ltd, including the highlights above. The 222 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Caretaker & Sons took on our roof repair at very short notice (24 hours). The repair turned into a full roof replacement due to battens and roofing felt being totally degraded. The men all worked extremely hard and any problems that cropped up were dealt with without any fuss. All debris was cleared at the end of each day and the end result is great.
Brian and his team have done an excellent job. The original task escalated once Brian got the scaffold in place and was able to assess the full extent of the deterioration of the 60 year old roof. Brian shared videos every step of the way and communicated constantly by WhatsApp, text and phone to keep us apprised of progress. He rearranged his schedule to accommodate this emergency job to ensure the property was safe, dry and fully repaired within just 2 days. Super service and the roof looks great!

Roofing isn't licensed, so anyone can set up - and it's a trade with more than its share of cowboys. A big re-roof must meet building regulations; CompetentRoofer (the Government-authorised NFRC scheme) registers roofers who can self-certify that, and vets and inspects them at least twice a year. Check they're on it before you hire.
Check the CompetentRoofer registerNever 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.
