Highlights
"We recently engaged the services of Dovestone Roofing to carry out a complete roof replacement to a mid terrace house. Mason & his team were extremely professional, helpful & friendly from the outset and all the way through to the completion of the works. The project was priced competitively and the works were delivered on budget & on time. We will look no further when similar requirements/projects arise in the future. Thank you Mason & the team.

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.
