Highlights

"The Gutter Man has done various work for me, including Replacing Guttering, painting & decorating, & various repairs around the house. His work is always accurate, professionally done & he obviously really cares about the job he’s doing for you. His attention to detail is impressive, & he is always tidy, respectful of your property & above all, a really nice chap. Nelson has done many varied repair & maintenance jobs for me over a few years now, & I highly recommend his work to anyone. It’s always a 10/10 job each time."

Gutterman guy did not turn up and did not contact me to say why, very unreliable and wont use Gutterman even if he subsequently did it for free.

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 sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
