Highlights

"The contractors, CG Roofing Specialists Ltd. undertook comprehensive refurbishment of an extensive tiled roof and chimney stack, including flashing repairs, refitting/repointing of tiles, cleaning, moss removal and moss prevention treatment. The work was carried out to a very high standard, consistent with the specification provided by the contractor. The site was kept clean and tidy at all times and all waste materials were removed when the work was complete. Without hesitation, I highly recommend this company."

"Craig is clearly an expert at his work. He and his team did an excellent job renewing two areas of flat roofing on our house that were getting towards the end of their life. He recommended the most appropriate and cost effective solutions for each. Sections of guttering were also replaced or repaired, again in the most cost effective way, and valley repairs were carried out very thoroughly. Everything was left vey tidy, as if they had never been there. Cost was as per the original quote and price competitive. Really impressed and would not hesitate to recommend to others."

Excellent service, turned up on time, completed the work in the time allowed and with no hidden extras, really clean and tidy respectful it was an occupied building and was extremely willing to assist where required as access was very limited.

We would use Craig and his team again and would recommend Craig to any of our neighbours and friends. (And did so.) They did a good job (they know I was checking as the work progressed). Craig kept to his quote. Which was much better value than a number of others I had. Craig also made suggestions when quoting the job which nobody else had thought of and were great options we took up. Craig’s team were respectful and polite and given the job they were doing, they were tidy. The only issue for us was when the start date changing and how long it took.

Top quality job, great attention to detail. I did my research before I called Craig, I have an old Victorian property and wanted someone skilled at working with these materials. Very high quality skilled tradesman. Very satisfied, highly recommended.

Craig turned up when he said he would and provided a quote by the date he said it would be sent. The quote was very competitive. Work has been completed and so far so good.

Craig responded quickly to my request, assessed the work required and quoted me a price. He completed the work early the following week as agreed and the roof looks perfect, with all the broken tiles replaced and all debris taken away. It looks as if he hasn't been here at all! Great service and highly recommended.

Craig was very professional and performed an excellent job. He came round quickly to assess what needed doing and after receiving the quote we decided to get him to carry out the work. He arrived on time and work was completed as promised and would have hesitation in recommending him.

"Architect" is a title protected by law - only people on the official Architects Register (held by ARB) may use it. Confirm they're on it before you commission a design.

Check the Architects Register
Smart checks

Before you hire an architect

Only someone on the Architects Registration Board (ARB) register may legally call themselves an 'architect' in the UK — ask for their ARB number and check it free at arb.org.uk. An 'architectural designer' or 'technologist' is a different, unregistered role (often capable, but not the same protection).
Agree how they charge before any work starts — a percentage of the build cost, a fixed fee, or an hourly rate — and exactly which stages it covers (concept design, planning application, building-regulations drawings, work on site), so there are no surprises later.
Confirm what they will actually handle versus what is excluded — the planning application, the building-control drawings, and whether they will administer the builder's contract on site — and get it, and a portfolio of similar projects, in writing.
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.
