Highlights
"The original start date was postponed because of weather, but we were kept informed of change and new date. There was a neighbourhood issue which was addressed both immediately and during the actual work. All arrangements were advised in advance, happened as planned, with no delays, and we were kept up to date with progress. The job, existing roof stripped out and replaced, was finished ahead of schedule - extra staff available. The whole area was left clean and tidy. All of the lads were pleasant, friendly and helpful. We have no hesitation in recommending Rix Roofing"
"Excellent service from start to finish. Great communication from George on the daily plans and how to limit the effect of weather disruption. Team on the job were always considerate, tidy and a pleasure to have around. The overall result looks great."
"The Rix team were great, really good communication throughout the process, from quote to time estimates, and updates provided throughout. The team were also pleasant and respectful, and the roofing job itself was carried out quickly and professionally. Can't recommend highly enough."

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.
