Roof and chimney
My chimney needed repointing a tile put back in place and top ridge tiles pointing. Phoned Dave. He came round and looked took photos for me to see what it was like. Gave me a quote. He came round and done a fantastic job in a timely manner too. Completely trust worthy guy. Would recommend 100% he will be my roofer and gutter man for life now. 5/5 stars.

Full reroof plus replacing plastics. Fitted dry verge system. Removed chimney stack from roof.
Dave, the boss, was very friendly and approachable. Couldn’t do enough for us, and after 30 years in the roofing business he knows his stuff. Would use again 👍🏻Verified reviewerJob location: BB4RCarl P10 Roof Replacement

Would Highly Recommend this company!
Came recommended by friends and was VERY satisfied. Our contact, Dave, stuck to everything he said re timings, work carried out and price quoted. All his team were really lovely lads, very respectful to my elderly mum and she felt safe and happy when they were there doing the work. Scaffolding and skip hire were all dealt with by Dave very smoothly and all work and clearing and tidying up were all completely very quickly and smoothy. We would highly recommend using this company for any roof repairs or, as they did for mum, a full roof replacement.Verified reviewerJob location: BL910 Pitched Roofing Installation

New roof. Fabulous job.
Found Dave of DG Roofing on Checkatrade. Had good reviews. Came around to provide quote. Very pleasant guy. Price agreed and date set. Dave stuck to every deadline, arranged scaffolding, skip and materials to be delivered and completed job in 2 days. Great team of lads, all friendly and polite. Worked solidly, only stopping for quick brews and worked 7 hour days. Would have no hesitation in recommending DG Roofing to anyone.Verified reviewerJob location: M2610 Roofing Repairs

Guttering repair
This is a follow up review from one I left back in September just to back up what was said then. Neighbour highlighted an issue with guttering at the boundary of our terraced property. The issue was no fault of Dave’s or what was done previously but went out of the way to sort on a Sunday anyway at no cost. Would recommend as stated previously.Verified reviewerJob location: M2610 Pitched Roofing Installation

Reroof of terraced house
I can’t rate Dave and his lads highly enough. Asked for a quote on Monday, came round that very day and gave what seemed a reasonable price for the full re roof. Intended on getting further quotes but hired on the spot as he seemed so genuine and was a local firm. Within the week job has been completed in full with no issues and Dave kept me informed the whole way. Did what he said he would do throughout, which goes a long way, and the lads he had working for him were all decent and grafted as well. Like I said can’t rate highly enough and would recommend to anyone looking for a roofer.Verified reviewerJob location: M26RChristopher H
