Highlights
"We required a box gutter repair which required removing the first two courses of tiles and re-felting etc. I had already been let down by two roofers and so to Jacob. Well what can I say, this is how it should be! Jacob and his team were polite, punctual, clean and tidy and did a fantastic job at a reasonable price. As I said, this is how it should be but we all now that this is the exception and not the rule. I can't recommend Jacob and his team highly enough."
"Jacob was really responsive and gave me a lot of advice on my flat roof. The work was carried out quickly and the team didn't cause any disruption. Price was also really reasonable! Thanks Jacob!"
"Replied rapidly, kept me informed of time suitable date and time, work carried without any disruptions to me, clean and an agreed reasonable price. Very pleasant and polite."

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.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
