I asked Russell from R Harris Roofing to quote for a leak in our flat roof, he arrived very promptly and came back to us with a very competitive quote. The Work was carried out in a professional manner, he was very polite and tidy, he also resolved a couple of other issues that he found with the roof which he did not charge any extra for. I would have no hesitation in recommending R Harris Roofing .

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.
