Empire Roofing assessed and repaired our roof, and got the work done on a short timescale

I found Ely's company at 7am, when the torrential rain had caused a massive puddle in my master bedroom - which was leaking in to the lounge through the gaps in the floorboard. Ely attended the property the same day, and frankly saved my house from potentially even more damage - the work was done very quickly and they left the place impeccable, we barely even felt any distruption. Super super happy with everything and glad I used Ely and his team. Would very highly recommend!

I was contacted early after placing my job and arranged to have a quote and job information , Ely and I came to an agreement on cost and job requirements plus a starting date, When the team arrived , Michael was up on the roof in a flash, scraping and cleaning the heavily collected moss and debris, he gathered most and cleared any that had fallen down , he took before and after photos of the work which were forwarded to me for my information showing what had been done and also an area that may need some attention in the future, for which I will be calling on them to do.

Ely and his team were brilliant. Excellent communication throughout the work. Timely, explained all stages of the work completed and checked I was happy with the finished result. Respectful and a clear customer-centric approach, offering value for money. I’m very happy with the work they have done and would recommend and use again.

We were very pleased that we had Empire Roofing and Building to remove the moss from our roof. We also had ridge tiles repointed, chimney work done and cracked tiles replaced. They worked very hard and are very nice people. We recommend them.

We contacted Empire to replace some broken tiles, ancient guttering and rotten fascias. They responded immediately, were highly consultative during the initial survey and were upfront and fair with their invoices. The actual work itself was excellent- special mention to Michael and Ely both, managing to complete the work to an excellent standard, quickly and left the work site immaculate. Both Michael and Ely explained the work they were planning, presented us with options and were exceptionally professional throughout the entire job. 10/10, will absolutely be using again, a real class act!

Great job by Empire Roofing & Building. Ely and his team were friendly, polite and professional. Ely explained all processes before and during the job, and provided pictures along the way. The work was completed quickly and finished to a very high standard & at a reasonable price. A 25yr guarantee was also supplied at the end of the job. What’s not to like, do not hesitate to book Empire!

From the outset, Ely was polite, professional, warm and friendly. When I met him, I got a really good feeling about him and knew he would be a trust worthy tradesman. His team worked efficiently and were keen to ensure that was happy with the job (which I am!). Thank you for an excellent service. I'd highly recommend Empire Roofing. I will be passing on their details to my friends and family.

I made an enquiry with Empire Roofing with regards to repair work on my soffit boards and guttering. Ely contacted me and visited the same day to see the site and provide a quote. The work was carried out within days to a good standard. I was so satisfied that further work has been agreed.

We had a leak in our guttering, Ely came out and gave us a quote, the next day he came back and fixed the issue. We’ve had no leaks in the gutter since, Ely and his team are very polite and professional, he even fixed my down pipe clip free of charge. Couldn’t recommend Empire Roofing and Building enough.

Smart checks

Before you hire a roofer

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.
