    Shed roof installation

    They were good. Apart from some niggling issues (not there fault) with old brickwork at was done in 1954, that was sorted out after raining heavily. The job looks like it was always there.

    Replacing of two gutter seals

    Chris was friendly, communicative, fast to respond and completed the work quickly and for a fair price. Grateful he made time for a minor job where others had declined the work. Would recommend.

    Two Separate Recommendations.

    Very impressed with the quality of work carried out, for what I consider a reasonable price. Never used Above the Rest Roofing before but they came with two completely separeate recommendations from people in other trades, so I was very happy to use them.

    High quality, good price and tidy tradesmen

    I called them on the Tuesday , Friday they came and quoted me and job was done by the Monday. The quote was reasonable and the work completed to a very high standard. They cleared up after themselves and were very polite. I have already recommended them, it’s a minefield trying to find goods trades persons. Can’t thank them enough, for the prompt , high quality work,

    Punctual, Professional, Communicative, Tidy

    Chris and his team were fantastic. They have done an amazing job replacing a storm damaged polycarbonate roof with a solid one. It’s transformed the look of our house, so delighted

    Leadworks Repair

    Posted 02 September

    Unreasonably expensive

    Avoid unless you have money to burn. I was charged £96 for a 20-minute job to unblock the top of a downpipe. The original agreement was to clear two gutters along the main roof, but the gutters and most of the downpipe were actually free from debris. They did not even wash the gutters, only fixed the top of the downpipe. Chris refused to revise the invoice to reflect the much smaller job that was actually carried out and the time spent. The only positive was the communication about their arrival time and arriving when they said they would, which is unfortunately quite rare these days.
