“We recently had our kitchen extension roof repaired by Runnymede Roofing Ltd and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the first point of contact, the team were responsive and a pleasure to deal with — any questions we had were answered promptly and clearly. The work itself was carried out efficiently and to a high standard, and we felt the pricing was very reasonable for the quality of service received. It’s rare to find a company that ticks all the boxes, but Runnymede Roofing managed it effortlessly. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them. Peter Scarf”
