Comments:
We knew we had a leak and could see some broken tiles, when we were recommended to Neil; he made us feel very confident that he could do the job and was very accommodating with his time, fitting us in.
Once he got into the job, we could see that much of the structure was rotten, and that wear and tear and aging had caused more damage than we expected.
Neil’s approach was simply brilliant. He went through the options, put on a plaster or fix it properly and we could see that he hadn’t scheduled the full fix, and so was worried about leaving a job half done.
I am pleased to say that Neil worked around our schedule and his own, and this enabled us to properly fix the problem fully with materials that won’t erode and because we worked with Neil’s schedule he fixed the problem and was able to do it for a very reasonable price. The finished job is so much better than we expected and we can now decorate.
Thanks Neil, and if anyone needs to talk with me personally, they can.

Summary:
Replaced and repaired a poorly constructed roof.
Comments:
When we first meet Neil, he came across as knowledgeable, understanding and reassuring that he knew what the problems were. Out of the 3 contractors he was the only one who actually got up on the roof and inside the roof to identify the problems. The main roof had to be stripped back and the trusses set at the correct angle, re-felted, retiled with the good mortar work on the valleys and verges which were now installed with the correct overlap.
Neil explained how long it would take and advised us each day what he had been completed and what was left to be finished. At the end of each day he ensured we were always left watertight.
His finished product is a 100% improvement on what the builder tried to do on a simple roof. I would highly recommend Neil.
