Lee gave a very competitive quote to fix water damage to my ceiling. He went above and beyond to do a meticulous job. The old plaster was removed, rubble taken away, new plasterboard installed and smoothed over, then sanded, stain proofed and painted. Everything was left in an immaculate condition. The work did take slightly longer than expected, but as we all know, the best tradespeople are in high demand, so I didn't mind the wait. The end result is of very high quality and I am extremely pleased. I highly recommend Lee, as he is a tradesperson who cares about a job well done.

I highly recommend Lee. I requested his help to install internal insulation on the external solid walls of my 1930s flat, and he did an outstanding job. He assessed the property’s needs and designed a bespoke plan to ensure the best insulation solution, preventing future issues while improving warmth and energy efficiency. From the start, he listened to my needs, was communicative, and provided regular updates. He planned and organized the work seamlessly, tackling challenges with ease. Beyond the insulation, Lee identified and addressed other important issues in the flat. His team of skilled tradespeople—including electricians, carpenters, painters, decorators, and cleaners—transformed my flat into a stunning, much warmer, and more comfortable space. Lee’s attention to detail, problem-solving, and pride in his work were evident throughout. Everything was completed to a high standard at a fair price. If you're looking for a skilled builder, Lee is the one to call.

Lee renewed my loft insulation and installed a new loft ladder and hatch. The job involved removing the old hatch and broken ladder, plus the contents of the loft, which included a wooden bed frame, two redundant water tanks & the old, filthy insulation. He kindly removed all the cobwebs too! This job was completed in one day. Lee took great care in my home to ensure no damage & no mess. Communication was excellent from start to finish. Completely professional & reliable, my go to for all building works & repairs. Highly recommend.

We engaged with Lee from Red Squirrel Insulation to insulate our new roof. From initial quote to completing the work, Lee was super helpful and did an excellent job. We were very happy with the insulation work and the high standard of the finish. Most importantly, the new roof and insulation work passed the council inspection for our building notice application with flying colours. Well done and thank you

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 platforms, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
