Every job comes with a written 10-year workmanship guarantee. We carry £5 million public liability insurance and are registered with the National Federation of Roofing Contractors. All materials come with separate manufacturer warranties. If any issue arises within the guarantee period, we return and fix it at no charge. We have been serving Nottingham homeowners since 2005 and our reputation depends on standing behind our work.
Nottingham's housing stock spans every era from Victorian terraces to modern estates. Each type has different roofing materials, different failure patterns, and different repair requirements. A roofer who knows Nottingham can diagnose faster, specify the right materials first time, and anticipate problems before they become expensive. We have worked on roofs across every postcode in the city and surrounding areas for over two decades. That experience means faster diagnosis, better solutions, and fewer callbacks.
We start every job in Basford with a proper inspection — from the roof, not the ground. We check every element: tiles, flashings, valleys, ridge lines, chimneys, gutters, fascias, soffits, and the roof space timbers. You receive a written report with photographs, a clear explanation of what needs doing now versus what can wait, and an itemised quote with no hidden costs. If we find something unexpected during the work, we photograph it, show you, and agree the additional cost before proceeding. No surprises, no pressure, no inflated invoices.

We have regular jobs in Basford throughout the year. This means we know the housing stock intimately — the materials, the common failure points, the access challenges, and the specific problems that the local conditions create. When we arrive at a property in Basford, we are not diagnosing from scratch. We already know what the likely roof type is, what materials we will need, and what the common problems are for that era of housing. This local knowledge means faster diagnosis, more accurate quoting, and fewer surprises during the work. It also means we carry the right materials for Basford properties on the van, so many repairs can be completed on the first visit without waiting for a special order.

Every payment triggers a receipt and your guarantee documentation is issued on final payment.
After the job is complete, we do a final walkthrough with you to check every detail. Any snags are fixed on the spot. We photograph the completed work for your records and for our portfolio. Your 10-year workmanship guarantee is issued in writing with our company details, the work specification, and the date of completion. If any issue arises within the guarantee period, call 0115 670 1242 and we will return to inspect and resolve it at no charge.
