We recently had roofing work done and were genuinely impressed. Rob handled everything professionally and efficiently, and his communication was clear and timely throughout.

Christophe S · Google

Rob was amazing. A detailed quote was provided, and the times and dates were agreed and kept.

Stephanie Smith · Google

We have used Rob on a number of occasions. He is thorough, honest and a great guy to work with. He went out of his way to quickly fix broken tiles that were leaking into our bedroom. Always on time, a good communicator. 100% recommend.

Competitive quotation. Good communication, always keeping me informed, and he arrived as promised. New roof including boarding, new soffits, fascias and gutters, and all debris taken away. Looks fantastic.

Steven Diett · Google

Robert did an absolutely fantastic job on our roof. Top quality, reasonably priced, and a pleasure to deal with. If we have another roofing issue I will be calling Robert again.

Anna Nolan · Google

Robert helped us with a repair to the lead flashing on our extension roof. Reliable, courteous, and a reasonable price. I would happily use him again.

Questions people ask

How quickly can you look at a leak in Hornchurch?

Call Rob or WhatsApp a photo. If water is coming in, we aim to get to Hornchurch, Romford and the immediate Havering streets as soon as the diary allows — often the same day or the next morning. A proper repair follows the temporary stop, not a tarp left for a month.

Do you replace old felt flat roofs with EPDM?

Yes. That is the job we are asked for most. Felt and asphalt crack, pond and let go at the edges. We strip back to a sound deck, replace rotten boarding, and lay a Firestone-style EPDM rubber membrane in as few pieces as the roof allows, with proper outlets, trims and upstands.

Which areas do you actually cover?

We are based at 93 Billet Lane, Hornchurch. Regular rounds are Hornchurch, Emerson Park, Romford, Gidea Park, Collier Row, Harold Hill, Elm Park, Rainham, Upminster, Cranham, Brentwood, Shenfield, and East London including Barking, Dagenham and Ilford. If you are just outside that, ask — Grays and Wanstead are already on the reviews.

Will you work around solar panels?

Often, yes. A lot of our flat-roof photos are renewals between existing arrays. We detail the upstands, walks and outlets so the panels can stay, instead of paying to have them lifted off and put back for the sake of it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Workmanship is guaranteed, and EPDM systems carry a long manufacturer warranty — we confirm the exact cover on your written quote, rather than a vague promise. You get the price before we start, and that is the price, weather delays excepted and explained.

Do you only do full new roofs?

No. Slipped tiles, a split in the lead, a bay that drips, gutters pouring down the wall — those are most of the week. If a repair is the honest answer, that is what we quote.

Got a roof that needs a decision?

Leak, old felt, a survey before you buy. Call Rob or send a WhatsApp — include the postcode and a photo if you have one.
