The work was done on time, and he was even kind enough to patch up a couple of defects in an adjoining roof. The main roof that he replaced is now in excellent condition, and we couldn't be happier with the work. We highly recommend Matt and his team." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "I contacted The Flat Roofing Specialists after being let down by multiple other companies when looking for someone to repair my flat roof. From first contact, Matt was a pleasure to deal with. He came out to assess the work when he said he would and sent the quote promptly. When it came to carrying out the work, everything was done to a very high standard with the utmost care and attention to detail. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Flat Roofing Specialist to anyone, we struck gold when we found Matt, and that's no exaggeration!" > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) ## Trades Roofer ## Areas covered _Towns and areas this trader lists serving.

Where we hold a date, the check shows it. ## Before you hire a roofer _What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_ - 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. - A major re-roof must meet building regulations. Prefer a roofer on the NFRC Competent Person Scheme (CompetentRoofer), who can self-certify the work and is vetted and inspected at least twice a year. Check they're listed at nfrccps.com before you commit. - Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact. ## Contact - Phone: 07308 514311 --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/the-flat-roofing-specialists Real public evidence only: every figure traces to its named source.
