Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Smyth's Roofing, including the highlights above. The 76 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Glenn and his team carried out several pieces of work for me, all of which I’m very happy with. Glenn is a lovely guy, very straight forward and good at communicating. He sent photos of the work before and after which was very helpful too. Work is of a great standard, he hand made a trough for between our houses, replaced guttering and tiles and also did some pointing too. He provided trust advice and guidance throughout and if I do need to replace the main roof I would definitely be using him and his team again. All the best Rachael
We were having the ceiling in our room above the garage replaced, but when it was removed we discovered that the flat roof above needed to be replaced. Our plasterer recommended Smyth's Roofing, and we couldn't be more pleased. They came out quickly and were able to fit the work in and they did a great job. It's been two years since the roof was replaced, and it's holding up well. I'd heartily recommend them.
Great service from Glenn, who came to fix a botch job by other roofers. Absolutely reliable and trustworthy. Showed us photos of what he found in and on the roof that was causing the leak - and, once done, photos of the work he completed to fix the problem. A fair price and no attempt to scare us into other work (again, our experience with the other roofers). Smyth's Roofing have been providing roofing services to many households around us for years. Thank you.

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.
