    Roofing Repairs

    Posted 23 October

    Roof replacement

    We used Checkatrade to identify reliable roofers to deal with a leak and selected Richards Roofing to carry out some repairs. Following an inspection Jess, the company’s owner, identified major problems throughout our roof, including rotting battens and deteriorating felt amongst others. He showed me the problems and explained the remedy which, inevitably, was complete replacement of the roof. This was carried out professionally by Jess and his two sons in a timely fashion, with storm Austen rapidly approaching! I would certainly recommend his firm to anyone with roofing problems.

    Very professional and knowledgeable. Richard’s roofing completely overhauled our barn roof with new timbers, velux windows ,linings and fascia’s . Jessie was very easy to communicate with, and clearly outlined the process from start to finish . The standard of work was high and our roof not only looks good, but will last many years to come.

    roof replacement

    Richard's roofing were an absolute joy to work with from starting to finish. They responded to my request with in the day and turned up the the survey on time. Jesse was very polite and knowledgeable about roofing, upon surviving the roof several tiles were missing and the tiles had visible slide so got a quote for felt , baton new tiles and a new ridge system. also quoted for new Gutters and Facia. Scaffolding went up on the date advised. Job commence on the agreed date Unfortunately upon removing the old tiles several of these main timbers were found to be rotting, The implications of these rotten timers were explained along with the cost of replacing the timers. Decided to have the timber replaced after climbing the scaffolding to see just how rotten they were. All the work was completed in good time site was left clean all rubbish and rubble removed.

    Pitched Roofing Repair

    Posted 29 July

    A lucky find.

    Jesse was working across the road and I asked him to come and look at some loose tiles on the rear of my roof. Unfortunately he found the cause was rot on the wall plate supporting the roof. He came back 2 days later and stripped the roof down to the bare timbers. He carefully cut out all the rot and replaced it with new wood, then rebuilt the roof with new membrane, battens and tiles. Looks fantastic. Probably as it did 200 years ago when the house was built. He kept me well informed throughout the job and explained exactly what he was doing. A very high quality job with no corners cut.

    Felt Roofing Repair

    Posted 16 July

    Richard roofing company is a professional body worthy of highly recommended

    Having a problem with my roof I called a local contractor and left my details. The contractor didn’t return my call so I contacted Richard’s roofing after checking check a trader. I left a message on Mr Richard’s mobile and was contacted promptly and informing him of my problem he arranged a home visit 2 days later. On inspection of my roof it was apparently clear that a roof overhaul was required. Within 3 weeks of this visit scaffolding had been erected and a date set for the following week to start work on repairing the roof. The work has been carried to a very high professional standard.

    Quality, Professional Somerset Roofing Company

    Jesse and his sons recently recovered/retiled my double garage and outbuilding (May 2026, Glastonbury). Very responsive from first contact, followed up with written quote as promised, commenced work at the precise time and date pre-agreed. He runs a tight ship and his sons are proper hard workers. No messing about, time wasting or cutting corners. Attention to detail, quality finishing (eg rendering on edges, plaster soffit repairs). Delivered as per quote with no game playing on the final numbers. I can wholly recommend Richards Roofing.
