Professional and friendly service
The team arrived on time arrived on time and worked with a minimum of disturbance to us. They were professional, polite and friendly, explaining the work they would be carrying out. The job was completed to a high specification and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards.

Determined to do a good job, friendly and left everything tidy at the end of each day
Aldridge and Sons were replacing our flat GRP leaking roof with a felt roof. On removing the GRP they realised a section of the roof was 'sweating' so the wooden boards had to be completely replaced. When inspecting and pricing the job John Aldridge actually spent time on the roof having a thorough look, as opposed to the other three people we asked in for quotes! Sam, Toby and Louis worked hard over the four days with us. They were polite, hard working and cleaned up at the end of each day. At various stages in the job, Sam explained to me what was happening and why particular decisions were being made. Communication was excellent throughout the job. The job was done to the agreed schedule and budget. We're really pleased with the work.

Replacement of leaded skylight with Velux Window
I contacted Aldridge & Sons after recommendation from a friend. John attended my property at the agreed time for the quote, this was received a couple of days later and was very reasonable compared to other quotes obtained. The scaffolding went up on the agreed date with particular care taken to ensure our sky satellite signal was not affected, the skylight was replaced the following day, the 2 roofers were very professional and polite, and I am very pleased with the completed work.

Hard working
The team worked hard to remove the old roof and replace the wood and fit new tiles. They took away all the old material and left the garden tidy.

Renovation of roof-edge and gutters at front and back of house.
Analysis of problem with back gutter may not have been correct but other problems were found during the work so all work covered in their Estimate was done and done to a high standard. The key worker was excellent - polite and helpful and discussed the work that was needed when I asked as he went along. Estimate was more expensive than competitor bids but we selected Aldridge because he is more than a 1 or 2-man company, he has been in business for a decade or so and he is vetted by Which? Trusted Trader (although there have not been any other reviews this year). Subcontracted scaffolders did damage back lawn some while we were not present.

Professional and courteous
Chimney repair and painting. Good looking job carried out by polite and professional workmen. Mr Aldridge was on site when the scaffolding was taken down to ensure that if any tiles were damaged they were replaced. I have confidence that if any broken tiles are subsequently spotted they will be replaced. The major expense of the job was the need for scaffolding. This company adheres to current Health and Safety Regulations rigorously. Will use in the future should I need any further work done and will recommend. Thank you

Roofing work
We have just used Aldridge & Sons Roofing Ltd to replace a flat roof that was at the end of its life and had started leaking. They did an excellent job installing a new felt roof. After they started work, it emerged that the bricks in the ridge adjoining our neighbours’ roof had crumbled and needed to be rebuilt at a small additional cost (this could not have been seen at the time of the quote). They recommended a builder who did the repairs quickly and efficiently. Sam and his colleagues were always helpful, friendly and polite, they worked hard and tidied up at the end of each day. We would certainly use this company again and would recommend them to friends and neighbours.

Replacement of front roof valleys
We have used Aldridge & Sons before to replace our original skylight fitted in 1907 so knew the great service we would receive. John attended the property and recommended the work which was required and followed this up with a detailed estimate fully explained the work to be completed. The work was done as quickly as possible to the same high standards we had experienced previously and his work team were polite and efficient.

Chimney and Bay Roof repairs
From start to finish Aldridge & Sons were courteous and competent. Appointments were kept and although they have quite a full order book, the work including scaffolding installation and removal all went exactly to the schedule. John and his team (especially Sam) explained in detail the work being undertaken and answered any questions without hesitation. Emails received prompt reply and the invoice came in as per estimate. Even the neighbours were impressed by the professionalism, asking us to pass on contact details!

Flat roof replacement
Aldridge and Sons recently replaced leaking flat roof on kitchen extension, whilst also bringing it up to date with current regulations. Estimate was clear and thorough and competitively priced. All members of the team were polite and courteous and worked efficiently in the very cold weather to get the old roof stripped back and replaced quickly to ensure it was water tight, coming back on the Saturday to complete the work. Very happy with the work, would recommend.

Happy Customers
We are very happy with the work carried out at our home. We requested an estimate for guttering work and when we asked Mr Aldridge if he could recommend someone to undertake some outside paintwork repair and repointing of patio he said his Company could do this work too. It was all carried out in a very professional and polite manner. The quality of work is to a very high standard. We would not hesitate to contact Aldridge & Son for work in the future.

Excellent work
I spent a long time researching various roofing companies, and Aldridge and Sons gave the most professional detailed quote, with added document on safe Covid guidelines and working. As I live across the other side of the country to the property which needed the work, and this quote was for my home which I let out to tenants, I needed to be sure that they were trustworthy and could do the job well, as I needed a whole new roof. I was booked in as the first job in January, and it took them only 8 days if that, to take off the old roof and put a new one on. They were polite to my tenants, they were extremely hardworking, and worked from early morning till it got dark every day. They cleaned up any mess promptly. They were especially thoughtful when my tenant needed to make an important business call, they stopped all the noise, and got on with something quieter until the call was finished. My tenant was very happy with them. John sent photos half way through the job, and then also, on completion of the work, sent a video, so I could see the whole new roof. They were always on the end of the phone or an email when I had a query. I would thoroughly recommend this company, and will definitely use them again.

Great Job & Nice Firm to Deal With
I contacted Aldridge & Sons following a recommendation as I needed to replace the flat roof of a garden shed. John & his team couldn't have made the whole process easier, from the initial quote to scheduling the work, and the final installation of the new roof. The roofing team were courteous and engaging and left the place clean and tidy when done. I wouldn't hesitate to reach out again for further work, and thoroughly recommend them.

Great Work
Aldridge has just completed all my guttering on a 1930s bungalow. Great communications to quote/organise work and fantastic service and quality of the finalised job. Great to have a job done without having to supervise or micromanage. Very polite, clean and efficient workforce - always arrived on time. Highly recommended.

Very satisfactory job
Aldridges fitted new fascias and guttering on a long and complicated run, plus small repairs to a slate roof. This was all done very efficiently with attention to detail and everything left tidy. The team were friendly and helpful. The work was begun on the agreed date and cost was as quoted. This is the second time we've used Aldridges and will use them again. Highly recommended.

Tiling of vertical gable
We had the our front gable tiled. This involved removal of the existing old weatherboarding, checking the brickwork underneath, removal and repositioning the downpipes at the end of the job. The roof over the gable showed unexpected problems which the chaps repaired and modified to fit the new tiling. All work was carried out to budget and within the stated timeframe. At all times, they were very helpful and explained anything that was asked. No complaints whatsoever and would definitely use Aldridge & Sons again.

Would highly recommend
I would highly recommend this company. John visited our house and quoted for the job back in February. We appreciated that we had to wait a few weeks for the job to be completed as like most good companies they have a lot of work on especially because of lockdown. It is worth waiting for a company that will do a good job and you can trust. John was professional, personable and easy to chat too about the work and followed up the meeting with a written quote. As a woman it is always daunting getting traders in but John filled me with confidence in his company's ability to do the job. Ray and Harry completed the work this week and were a joy to have working for us. Worth the wait. Hard working and personable and left everything tidy and did a good job.

Renewal of 3 sides of a slate roof on a detached Victorian house
John Aldridge & Sons was recommended by a neighbour and in 2019 carried out remedial work comprising a lead valley replacement to a bay on the house. This went well and the company were asked to quote for major work. A detailed two page high quality specification was submitted by John and followed exactly on site. This became a month long project to replace 3 of the 4 sides of a 123 year old Victorian villa with Cupa H12 slates, new battens and breathable felt to the relevant BS standard and use code 5 lead for chimney flashing, valleys and hips to the front bays - the latter carried out by one of his sons is a work of art. A complexity was the removal and subsequent reinstatement of PV and hot water solar panels by others contractors, but with help and co-operation, everything went well and some beneficial up-engineering was also possible. Scaffolding, a skip and welfare unit were organised by the company and arrived on site in time for a start on the predicted date; thereafter, various pairs of hands turned up regularly every working day before 8am to get on with the job. Luckily, the weather was almost perfect for the 4 week period. The end result has enhanced our family home and provided a top quality roof. Thorough craftsmanship, a polite, friendly workforce, the site kept tidy, attention to detail, good for another 120 years. Passers by have taken note and recommendation conveyed. Thank you John and all your staff.

Good job and considerate
The team who fixed our roof have done a great job. They were considerate and friendly, and from what we can see everything is solid. They stripped and recovered two flat roofs, and replaced some tiles. Also removed a chimney vent. All done in around 5 days total.
