Roofers & Roofing

Are you looking for a local roofer? Trust A Trader’s online directory of trusted local roofers is on hand to help you to find a local trader that can provide you with the service that you need, when you need it.

Whether it’s a leak in your roof, or you require a complete re-roof, Trust A Trader is on hand to help you. There are different types of roofing, and it is important that you get the right person for the job, but when it comes to finding domestic or commercial roofers, it can sometimes feel as though everyone claims to be a specialist. Even with endless research, it can be hard to know who is genuine; who can you trust and who is likely to leave you with a big bill (and substandard work or an ongoing leak?). Our tried and tested vetting and review processes allow you to pick from a broad selection of trusted roofers in your area. Knowing that you can rest easy, safe in the knowledge that our roofers are of a high standard, is our priority.

Vetted and Accredited

Before a roofer can be registered in our directory they must first pass our strict vetting   process. As well as providing us with at least 5 customer references, we ask for evidence that they are appropriately accredited and insured to undertake the work that they will be offering on their Trust A Trader profile.  Only when we are satisfied that a trader will uphold our excellent reputation and high standards will they be invited to join our directory of elite tradespeople and organisations.

Once they have been approved to join us, traders are invited to complete their profile page with relevant information, including details of the types of roofing services that they offer, their location, images of previous work, contact details and links to send an email or SMS message.

Reviewed

We know that nobody is better placed to tell you about the service that you can expect from a trader than their former customers. Once a trader is up and running on Trust A Trader, customers are invited to give us their honest opinion of the service that they received. In addition to a written review, customers are asked to rate their trader across six categories, including punctuality, quality and value. An overall star rating of up to five stars allows you to see, at a glance, how others rate the roofing services offered by the traders listed in our directory.  You can see details of each review on the trader’s Trust A Trader profile page.

You may wonder why it is rare to find a negative review on Trust A Trader. This is because negative reviews are extremely rare; our traders all operate to our exceptionally high standards. On the very rare occasions that a trader does receive a negative review, our communications team will work hard to help both parties reach a satisfactory resolution. If this is not possible and the trader is deemed to be in the wrong, they will be removed from Trust A Trader’s directory and blacklisted.

Information About Roofers

Roofing is a specialist skill. An experienced roofer can identify weak spots or potential leaks that an untrained eye would probably miss. From leaks to insulation, broken tiles to thatching, solar panels to sky lights, we will help you to find the a roofer who can meet your needs.

We know that home maintenance can be a pain. It can be easy to turn a blind eye to roof problems but, if left untended to, seemingly minor issues have the potential to develop into bigger, more costly problems if not correctly fixed. In addition to the skills and experience required to diagnose and fix roof problems, roofing can also be a high-risk task if not conducted by a professional. As such, it is recommended that roofing is not done on a DIY basis. Falls from a roof are a serious hazard; in fact, a third of professional roofing fatalities are from falling. Considering this statistic is from experienced professionals, amateurs are at greater risk of injury; a professional roofing service is a small price to pay to keep you safe.

The traders listed on Trust A Trader have access to a broad range of roofing materials and offer most types of roofing service. If you are unsure whether a trader offers the roofing service that you need, do not hesitate to get in touch with them via their Trust A Trader profile; they will be happy to advise you or provide a free, no-obligation quote for your roofing works.

At Trust A Trader, we are proud of our professionalism and integrity. We expect all of the traders registered in our directory to uphold these standards, too. To help facilitate this, we encourage our traders to build relevant partnerships, memberships, accreditation's and affiliations to help them to stay abreast of industry changes, requirements and innovations. This helps our traders to continually deliver the high standards that we expect.  If you are unsure what accreditation's a trader has, just look for the logos on their profile page.

Trade Insurance and Public Liability Insurance for Roofers

Are you a roofer, or do you work at heights? Considering roofing is a high-risk job insurance, it is important that you take the appropriate measures to ensure the safety of yourself and those around you. Roofer insurance is important as it helps to protect you in case of injury or damage to yourself, a third party, your property, or that of others. At Trust A Trader, we provide our traders with an insurance service so that we can make sure that you and your customers feel safe and protected, no matter what happens.

Surprisingly, public liability insurance for roofers is not a legal requirement. However, for our traders’ peace of mind of our traders and our clients, Trust A Trader Insurance provides bespoke, industry-specific insurance policies that provide value for money while keeping you covered.
