We had a small leak in our roof so I put the feelers out for some quotes. When Chris from MB Roofing came around I was immediately impressed by how honest and professional he was while also very polite and friendly. The quote arrived a couple of days later and the price was very reasonable so I agreed to use them to fix my roof knowing that I might have to wait because of the weather! But as luck would have it the guys turned up a couple of days later as they had a job that got cancelled but then it stopped raining and my job got fitted in - result :)

Roofing isn't licensed, so anyone can set up - and it's a trade with more than its share of cowboys. A big re-roof must meet building regulations; CompetentRoofer (the Government-authorised NFRC scheme) registers roofers who can self-certify that, and vets and inspects them at least twice a year. Check they're on it before you hire.
Check the CompetentRoofer registerNever 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.
