"Good price and excellent work."

"Very competitive quote for the works. A future date agreed but works completed today, as the company had a cancellation, so the work was brought forward. All along communication has been great, with a same day visit to assess the works and provide the quote and all my questions answered. The work was carried out today, with both roofers working really hard in searing temperatures to complete the work. They were both pleasant, helpful and considerate. Happy to recommend this company."

I just wanted to say a Big Thanks to Christopher and his team. Christopher replied very quickly to my message, we agreed the price and date. Two his colleagues done a very good job, which stopped cold coming through the fireplace to the rooms and reduced the noise. Very professional Company. Would highly recommend.

From the start we found Chris very professional in advising what needed to be done without any pressure selling. The work was carried out by Chris and his team this week, rebuilding a woodshed roof that had rotted in places and then refelting . They also replaced the felt roof on our annex roof. We are very pleased with the result and found them to be very prompt, courteous and hard working. We would definitely recommend.

I called Essex Roofing & spoke to Chris about the repair to my roof vent. He came to assess the job &arrived on the day & at the exact time he said he would. Very good first impression. A quote was given promptly for the job. A date was agreed for the work to be carried out. I received a phone call asking if it was convenient to come on an alternative day as they had finished another job earlier than expected. They arrived when they said they would. Work carried out & I am happy with this. Work men were courteous. I don't have a bad word to say about my experience with this company. Thank you.

I called them in to try and sort out rain water pouring in from my roof (which a previous roofer never bothered to sort out). They saw a few possible causes and carried out repairs but until it rains i will not know for certain it's solved as could be from anywhere. Highly recommend and will definitely use them again.

I found Chris and his team to be absolutely excellent. Chris contacted me within the hour of posting the job, came to view the work needed the same day & his team arrived to do the job within 3 days. Cannot fault their professionalism & communication skills at all.

Chris initially came out, was honest and got back to us in good time with a quote and date to sort the repair. Other roofers had told us our roof needed re felting. It was a simple re mortar of ridge tile. Dean came today to repair, he called before hand with a time frame. Both very polite and kept us updated. On time.

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 sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
