Some Advice
Choosing the Right Roofing or Scaffolding Contractor
Selecting the right roofing or scaffolding contractor can be a daunting task, but checking a company’s online presence and customer reviews is an excellent way to gain confidence. As shown above, we hold several industry memberships and are Trading Standards Approved, giving you peace of mind when placing your work with us.
From my experience surveying around 50 roofs a week, I’ve found that at least 5% of customers have unfortunately been ripped off. Rogue traders sometimes erect scaffolding during inspections without authorization, demand cash payments upfront, or start work only to demand thousands of pounds more midway through the project. This unprofessional behaviour puts both clients and traders in difficult situations where clients feel pressured to pay.
My advice for anyone seeking a quote is to:
Always check the company’s online reputation and customer reviews.
Choose a Limited Company whenever possible.
Ensure the work is insurance-backed.
Always get your quote in writing.
Always ask for a detailed invoice after completion.
Taking these steps will help protect you from scams and ensure your project is completed professionally and fairly.
Some Important Advice When Choosing a Roofing or Scaffolding Contractor
Selecting the right roofing or scaffolding contractor can feel daunting, but doing your homework is key. Checking a company’s online presence and reading customer reviews is a powerful way to gain confidence. As a trusted contractor, we are proud members of respected industry bodies (see above), and we are Trading Standards Approved, which means you can trust us to do the job right.
In my experience surveying around 50 roofs a week, at least 5% of customers have unfortunately been ripped off. Rogue traders sometimes erect scaffolding during inspections without permission or demand cash payments upfront. Another common scam is starting work and then demanding thousands of pounds more halfway through the job—this is unprofessional and puts both you and the trader in a difficult position.
Here’s my advice to anyone seeking a roofing or scaffolding quote:
Always check the company’s online reputation and reviews.
Choose a Limited Company whenever possible.
Make sure the work is insurance-backed.
Always get a written quotation before authorizing any work.
Always ask for a detailed invoice after completion.
Important Safety Tips:
Do not authorize any works or pay deposits without a written quote.
If you feel pressured, stop and ensure you’re comfortable before giving any approval. Remember, you have a 14-day cooling-off period unless you request the work to begin sooner.
Verify that your contractor has the correct insurance, especially for working at height or using heat on your property—this is often overlooked.
Never pay cash. Always pay deposits and final payments into a business or director’s bank account for your own protection.
If you’re ever unsure about authorizing work with any contractor, you’re always welcome to contact us directly. We offer a free service to help ensure your chosen contractor is operating professionally and ethically.
