Highlights
"Eddie has recently carried out some work to our roof and chimney. We have used Eddie in the past at previous houses and he has always been very professional and carried out the work efficiently and to a great standard. Communication has always been great and we have highly recommended McLean Roofing on numerous occasions to friends and neighbours."
"We contacted Eddie after water was leaking through our bedroom ceiling. He responded very quickly, visited & identified the problem & gave us a very reasonable quote. A few days later, the scaffolding was erected & within 10 days the work was completed to a very high standard. Eddie was very friendly, punctual & worked efficiently. We were very happy with the results, would not hesitate to use him again and would highly recommend him."
"Eddie was recommended to us by our neighbour, who was very pleased with his work. He installed a cowl on our unused chimney and repaired several slipped and broken tiles on both the front and rear of the house. The scaffolding was erected and taken down within a week, which we really appreciated. Once we decided to go ahead with the work, Eddie came within the week and completed it all in one day. He was kind, professional, and helpful throughout, and we’ll definitely use him for any future roofing work."

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.
