Very helpful in tracing my problem and even though it proved not to be the roof did all they could to help. (Reviewed April 2022)
Edward and his team are one the best tradespeople Iâve had the pleasure of hiring. Upon advertising the work, Edward contacted me within seconds. Edward kept me regularly updated on when they would be able to complete the work.
Edward and his team completed the work to the highest standard and even tidied up other jobs that were left unsightly. Edward gave additional advice on what to do when looking at hiring tradespeople in future.
Would definitely use Edward and his team in future and I highly recommend them to anyone not just friends and family.
Fantastic job!!! I am a very satisfied customer!!! (Reviewed April 2022)
Came out straight away. Started work the next day, very clean, no mess was left. 2 more jobs need to be done, done this free for me. (Reviewed February 2022)
Mr Reed came back to my house to repair a tile that was close to falling off the corner of the roof. He was concerned that the tile could fall off and injure someone. (Reviewed February 2022)
Water was coming in to our bedroom along the entire length of the wall under the eaves. Edward and his team diagnosed the problem and made repairs promptly. When he provided a quote Edward assured me his team would thoroughly inspect our roof, fix any other problems they found and this was part of the service and the price would not go up. True to his word, additional problems including broken tiles and split lead work were all taken care of and they were even good enough to remove an old satellite dish for no extra charge. Edward and his team were polite and friendly throughout. (Reviewed January 2022)
Excellent & professional, good value & fast service! (Reviewed November 2021)

Came to help very quickly. Polite and friendly. And did the work we asked of them. (Reviewed November 2021)
Repair of leak down a wall from ceiling in main bedroom in old cottage.
Repairs carried out included -
Cleaning out main roof gulley. Cleaning moss from roof tiles and replacing broken tiles.
Cleaning out main lead valley and applying fibre glass to gulley.
The on site assessment by Mr Reed led me to believe this company was the right choice. I was encouraged to obtain several estimates and I also checked out reviews.
Mr Reed kept me updated on the start date.
The polite team arrived with him on schedule with everything needed to complete the work which was carried out efficiently with minimal disruption. (Reviewed October 2021)
We were very impressed at Edward Reed's prompt response to our enquiry. His communication skills at keeping us informed of progress were excellent & he has been utterly reliable. The lads he employs have also been competent & hard working. The jobs were completed quickly & they tidied up and took away the debris. (Reviewed October 2021)
Roof repairs made quickly and efficiently with full explanations and recommendations given. (Reviewed October 2021)
Edward and his team gave excellent service. There were a number of relatively small maintenance jobs to do including replacing some spalled bricks on a chimney stack, repointing some bonnet tiles, resetting a stretch of guttering so that it flowed better and a general roof inspection.
The inspection threw up a few more minor problems that were fixed at no additional cost.
Including getting scaffolding erected, the whole job took barely 2 days. (Reviewed May 2021)
Edward and his team did an absolutely brilliant job repairing two holes in our roof. He was extremely responsive and came out to do the repair job only a few days after he quoted us for the work. His quote was very fair and competitive. Edward and his team take great pride in their work and go the extra distance to make sure the job is done properly. I would certainly use his services again and would recommend him to anyone requiring roofing services in the Oxford area. (Reviewed April 2021)

Called them shortly after 9am. They came out straight away, inspected my roof, quoted a good price, and had tiles replaced by lunchtime. Recommended. (Reviewed July 2020)
A good family-run business. (Reviewed January 2020)
Having discovered a wet patch on our bedroom ceiling following heavy rain over an extended period I searched on line for a reliable, recommended roofer.
I phoned on Monday & left a voice message. About 30 minutes later Edward called back. He confirmed they could handle the job & would call to examine/estimate later in the week. Edward called Tuesday morning & had to be very persistent to get hold of me as I was either driving or out in the Countryside with no signal. He came to view the problem & my son gave the go-ahead to do the job. This was completed very efficiently on Wednesday. With such wonderful service I was happy to pay immediately - it is important to me not to keep good local traders waiting for payment. Today is Thursday & it is raining hard with no sign of a leak! (Reviewed October 2019)
Billy came out quickly to quote for repair of the garage roof and sottits and fascias of main house roof. Quality of work was excellent. Indeed I requested further work of de-mossing the roof of the house and garage. Billy also recommended eaves skirt to further protect the roof and help direct rainwater to the guttering. I am extremely happey with his work and would not hesitate to recommend him. (Reviewed June 2019)

They came out and fixed roof issues in a day. They were all polite and professional and did a great job. We couldn't ask for more will definetly be first call for further roof issues. Great to trust someone for work on roofs. (Reviewed December 2018)

We were delighted with the service. I emailed with one small complaint and Edward was on the doorstep the next day and fixed it. He was happy to do so and no mention of extra charge. (Reviewed February 2017)
Edward visited to give us a quote when the Autumn rains made us realise we had an issue in the roof, around the area of our flue pipe, with water leaking into the loft. We got the quote immediately, and he was also willing to wait until I had honoured my other contractor visits. His price was extremely competitive, and I was also impressed with his strong reviews on here and Check-A-Trade. He squeezed us into his schedule at short notice, and when he came to do the repair it was completed within the morning. (Reviewed October 2016)

Our original 1930s guttering was in poor repair. Edward was happy to advise us and our guttering and fascias have now been repaired and restored. We are really happy with the work as they look some much better and improve the whole look of the house. We are so pleased that we were able to keep the original guttering instead of replacing it. Happy customers. (Reviewed November 2014)
