Dormer Flat Roof Repairs for Flashing & Tiles
Have just used Bennett & Sons (Jonathan & team) to carry out some dormer flat roof repairs, to reapply some flashing & tiles which lift in strong winds and to also replace other slipped tiles. We have been very impressed with the service offered from start to finish. Jonathan arrived dead on the appointed time to review the work (certainly a plus these days) and to advise best solution to fix our problem. He provided a competitive quote, backed up by a small video which helped us to view the problem & solution for ourselves. Jonathan & team have now completed the repairs, (again providing photos of finished work) with minimal disruption to us. Would fully recommend their services, particularly as they also provide a 5-year guarantee for their work. The team were very easy to deal with, as was Siobhan in their office.

Repairs done on leaking roof near chimneystack, valley & gutters cleaned
Thank you to Jonathan, Siobhan, and the team, I am very pleased with the service (roof repair & gutters cleaned) provided. They went an extra mile to do some other work which was spotted during the repair. I would recommend them to anyone for any roof work needed. They also assured me to call them to resolve if i find any leak for the work done which till now it was not needed.

Bennett & Sons to the rescue
I had a small section of my corner verge that needed re-cementing and having used Bennett's earlier this year I knew I would be in good hands. I didn't bother obtaining further quotes as I was so satisfied with their previous work - dealing with reliable professionals who took time and effort in explaining what needed to be done, carrying out the work quickly efficiently and as a bonus were so tidy. Thank you so much guys

Bennett's visited yesterday. They were friendly, courteous, helpful and respectful . We had a problem with our gutters.They quickly identified the problem and gave an on the spot quote which I thought was fair and which I accepted. They then fixed the problem with clear, ongoing commentary of what they were doing and it was very apparent they took pride in their work. We have used Bennett's before and are always very happy with the standard of work and the service they provide. Will continue to use them without a doubt in the future.

Quality Service with good value
We needed our flat roof over an extension to be replaced, and after obtaining 3 separate quotations for the same scope of works, we opted to appoint Bennett & Sons. They installed a torched on 3 layer felt roof, and worked solidly to complete the job within a day and a half in order to beat the forecast rain. Just over a month on since completion, and with some heavy rainfall during that time, we remain completely satisfied with the work that has been done. We would certainly recommend Bennett & Sons based on our experiences. Jonathan Bennett was very experienced and informative, with a pleasant and positive demeanor, and willing to go the extra mile to please the customer. Siobhan was equally efficient in scheduling the whole process, and keeping us informed along the way. They were always punctual, treated our property in the correct manner, and also left it in the right way. Add to this their competitive pricing and you get what ultimately, every customer wants which is great service at a fair price. Thank you Jonathan, Siobhan, and the team.

Work on flat roof and tiles fixing
Best trades guys I have dealt with in a long time. Not only were they friendly but their knowledge is so fantastic that they really want to understand the issue rather than just create a big job for no reason. I could not recommend these guys more. Their advice is always honest and measured and really explain what needs doing and how, followed by possible solutions. Team also super friendly and hard working.

Really helpful and clear advice
Bennett & Sons came to look at a flat roof leak and quote for repair/replacement. They arrived on time and were friendly and polite. They completed a thorough assessment of the problem, found defects which could be the cause of the issue. Rather than immediately suggest replacement of the entire roof at great expense, Jonathan suggested a relatively simple repair option to see if that resolved the leak and he carried out the repair at no charge to me. As a first impression of Bennett & Sons I was left extremely happy with their professionalism and their treatment of me as a customer. They didn’t just quote for work that could be avoided, and gave genuine assistance free of charge. If the repair doesn’t resolve the issue I’d have no hesitation in asking them to quote for the roof replacement work.

After contacting several roofers with no response Bennett & Sons was recommended to me. I rang and left a message and got a call back within 2 hours setting up a date and time to visit and inspect the job. After inspecting the job and showing me a video which was taken whilst the roof was checked the problem was fixed on the spot. The service was absolutely fantastic. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these guys. Honest, decent and knowledgeable

Replacement of a ridge tile
I called Bennett & Sons limited due to damage caused by a previous builder to our roof. Not only were they able to turn up four days early but did such a good seamless replacement of the roofing tile but also took the time to advise us on what our options are concerning the damage caused by the two previous builders. I found Bennett & Sons limited on trustedtraders.which.co.uk as advised by Trading Standards and was more than relieved at how nice and professional they are.

We would gladly recommend Bennett and Sons Ltd to friends and family. This is because when we approached the company for all the roofing work that was required, we got the following:- 1. A free & reasonable quote with honest, friendly, expert advice. 2. A reliable, polite & friendly team who were punctual, hard-working and kept us up to speed in respect of the progress made during the day. 3. Work was carried out to a high standard using good quality materials. They even dealt with a few odd jobs that needed taking care of without hesitation. We cannot thank the whole team enough for their kindness and willingness to get the job done as quickly and efficiently as possible. Keep up the great work. Definitely worth giving them a call if you have any roofing work that needs to be done.

Prompt efficient clean and tidy
I had my guttering, soffits, facias and the felt on my front bay replaced. When inspecting my property to give me a quote Jonathan was upfront and honest gave me lots of options and did not pressurise me into something I did not want to have done. The estimate came through promptly and I was impressed with how quickly they were able to fit me in. Jonathan and his team were even able to come a few days earlier than expected to start the work, due to them having finished another job earlier than expected which was brilliant. They were prompt efficient clean and tidy. When I had an issue a few days later, I spoke to Jonathan and explained the problem, he was happy to come straight away and resolve the situation. I highly recommend Bennett & Sons, you will not be disappointed.

We had several quotes to replace the gutters, fascia, soffits and removing and redirecting a downpipe. Jonathan gave us honest advice and guidance with regards to carrying out only the work that was absolutely necessary. The team arrived earlier than arranged as the rain was predicted for later that day. They worked efficiently and finished most of the work by mid-afternoon. They came back the next day for a couple of hours and completed the job to a very high standard within the specified timescale. The driveway was cleared of all debris and left very clean. A first-class service from start to finish – very impressed! The soffits, fascia and gutters look great too! Absolutely no hesitation in recommending!

Superb, Ethical Traders!
Bennett & Sons are a credit to their trade! Professional, honest and hard working! From start to finish they communicated well and always updated us. Their standard of work is excellent and the work schedule fell over the heatwave, yet they continued to work relentlessly in the outside heat and remarkably stayed cheerful throughout! No payment was requested until they had completed all the work and we were satisfied. Many traders should learn from Bennett & Sons and we will always recommend them and use them in the future! Well Done Guys!!

Jonathan was friendly, dependable and efficient. He clearly also acted in my interest in order to ensure that his knowledge and experience resulted in me only having the repairs which were necessary, rather than racking up a big bill. It's uncommon in this day and age to feel that you can trust a trader to ensure that you get a robust repair whilst also keeping the costs down, but that's what we got from Jonathan, and so I would have no hesitation at all in recommending him.

If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing properly
I had a tricky problem with gutter overflow in these thunderstorms of late, with water getting inside the windows. Bennett’s came and discussed the problem with me and proposed a solution. When they were up and replacing the gutters they found an additional problem that they then fixed. There was no extra charge and their concern was clearly to do the job properly for me. They were on time, and they were supported by efficient and pleasant office staff who were a pleasure to deal with.

Happy Customer
This is the first time my roof got a problem in the past ten years time. My roof is leaking during the downpour this summer. I called Bennett & Sons on 5 July. Jonathan and his helper came to inspect on Friday, 9 July and had a free estimation. They inspected both indoor and outside on the roof top. He recommends the work include replacing a few valley tiles, ridge tile repointing, and refit some broken and missing tiles on the roof. The quotation came on Monday, 12 July by email that the price is reasonable. I agreed on the quote and called to schedule the repair work on 16 July. Jonathan and his team of two workers came today and worked professionally under the heat and managed to finish the job with high standard. Before they leave, Jonathan provided me such a brilliant idea, that is to use a pencil to draw on the wall following the water mark. It will help to prove whether the leaking problem is 100% fixed (if the size of the water mark didn't increase) This is the first time I use Bennett & Sons. Thank you Bennett & Sons. I am a happy customer! Highly recommended!

New roof
Was not the cheapest quote I had, but certainly the most professional. John came and assessed the work and I had a written quote by email the following day. The old roof was completely removed and a new roof using Redland 49 interlocking tiles was installed. A team of 4 roofers arrived promptly and worked throughout the day. They arranged the skip and the scaffolding. On the first day, the old roof was removed and a new membrane installed. By the end of the second day, the new roof was pretty much complete, and only a few finishing touches were needed so that everything was finished by lunchtime on the third day. They also fixed a crack in the back wall, for which they didn't charge extra! I had used this company before to clean my gutters and was pleased with the service, which is why I turned to them to do this rather large job. I have already recommended them to one of my neighbours.

Called them to get a quote to repair a roof leak. They came early next day and easily identified the issue and fixed it which was such a relief as another roofing company had quoted us £1,800 to repair the leak. They did not charge for this even though we were willing to pay. Found them to be very helpful and honest and would highly recommend them.

Arranging the appointment was easy and quick. Jonathan visited to look at some faulty guttering at the front and back of our property. He instantly saw that the guttering at the back required a quick fix and went ahead and fixed it. I was happy to pay as they did come out to us. He said he would not charge. He then proceeded to carefully check the front, told us what the solution would be and said he would send a quote on email. Made the whole process painless and easy. They have done work on our roof previously and I have found them to be trustworthy and efficient.

They’re determined to make you a happy customer.
The job was to reinsert part of some lead flashing that had come away from a chimney stack and to repoint it. I got 3 quotes (all from Trusted Traders), Bennett and son weren’t the cheapest but neither the most expensive. I was happy to accept their quote because I wanted someone with a 5 star review even though it was more than I expected for a small job. They actually did the job twice and this is my amended review. The reason is that the first time they did the job they used lead sealant instead of mortar to repoint the lead flashing into place. This looked odd being a mixture of sealant and existing mortar here and there and I mentioned this in my initial review. Very soon after my review was published Mr Bennet called me and asked if he could correct the work. Although I now wasn’t bothered he preferred to leave me a happy customer. His team came by today and took out the sealant and removed the existing mortar along the length of the stepped flashing and replaced it with new mortar making it look consistent. So, I would recommend them and use them again. The workers that did the job were very polite and professional. A couple of things to note - Mixing lead sealant and mortar for pointing a line doesn't look good, stick to mortar if that's what you have already or replace the entire line with sealant. - The person that comes to look at and estimate the job is not necessarily the person that does the job. - If you are unhappy with the work carried out then let Mr Bennett know, he will try to make you a happy customer.

Outstanding service
I've had a leak from the roof for a while but it isn't clear where the leak is. The service from calling Bennett & Sons to make an appointment, through to them visiting on time and offering advice was great. Jonathan inspected the roof and identified a few possible causes and advised how I could resolve by myself by buying some sealant and applying. There was a crack in one of the tiles which could have been the cause but would have required taking quite a lot if tiles out. He sealed the crack and asked to monitor. He wasn't at the house for long and I didn't know how much he would charge. I would have expected him to charge £20-30 for the work but to my surprise he offered to take no payment! Will definitely call him back if I need some roofing work done.

High quality, professional and friendly roofers
I've used Bennett & Sons numerous times and on each occasion their work has been of a very high standard and met what it set out to do. Jonathan, Shane and the rest of the team are friendly, both diagnosing issues and making sure the right work is completed as specified. On occasions they have had the opportunity to do more than what's needed but every time they present the options, recommending what is required. Dealing with Siobhan, the booking process is very efficient and everything is managed very well. I appreciate their very good service and knowing a good roofer. I've used them for the following work: - Repaired leaking dormer roof - Replaced slate tiles (on locally listed property) - Large repairs to a garage roof - Fixed and replaced drains

Fast & friendly service - very fair charge
I had a leak coming though a Velux window on my rear pitched roof. Bennett & Sons detected this to be a possible leak through a gap between the flashing and rear wall or screw fixing on the Velux window itself. They applied silicone to the wall and Velux and this appears to have fixed the problem. Also, noticed a few days later that guttering on the roof was leaking on to the Velux window when heavy rain was falling. They came back and cleared the gutter and re-secured. I had previously had a quote from another roofing company to fix the roof (they recommended jet washing the tiles) which was unnecessary and would have cost me hundreds! This company is very reasonable and do not create unnecessary work. Would highly recommend.

My gutters were leaking and i thought it needed cleaning or worse replacing but when inspected by Jonathan, he found that the down-pipe had a blockage which was causing the leak. When the blockage was cleared (didn't even charge me as he felt he hadn't done any work) and tested by pouring a bucket of water, there was no leak and so cleaning or replacement was not needed. I was extremely impressed by Jonathan's honesty and professionalism, arrived within the given time slot, highly recommended, will certainly use them again.

Replacement of a sub-standard roof
Wayne, Jonathan and Siobhan are a truly professional team. We had a new extension completed with sub-standard workmanship and the wrong materials used, to the extent we needed the existing contractors back on three occasions to carry out repairs as water was penetrating, ruining the ceiling and laminated floors beneath. It got progressively worse. In desperation to find a permanent solution that was guaranteed our research and reading reviews paid off. We needed local top-quality roofers and quickly, no surprises Bennett and Sons Limited were right up there with the best. From the start, their telephone manner was professional and empathetic and immediately gave me some degree of comfort; we choose right. Wayne visited as agreed and without delay spotted the problem immediately and an estimate promptly arrived. All agreed, the date was set and Jonathan with his assistant turned up early to start. The job took 2 days, all the discarded materials were removed and agreed additional work also completed. The guys were courteous and professional explaining (as I needed some reassurance) what would be needed to replace the whole roof. What a great looking roof and we know it will keep all out. We are now getting them back in to repair some further sub-standard work to each side of the roof extension. We can’t praise them enough, highly recommend, if you have a small issue or in need of a whole new complex roof, call them you won’t be disappointed. Chris and Kalpana.

They used the proper tool to lay the gutters while most builders merely judge with their eyes. Water no longer splash out of my gutters even in heavy downpour. Some of my neighbors' new gutters look good but water overflow in places during heavy rain. Yes, I will recommend this trader.

My key points are that they: - arrived promptly - emailed a written quote the next day - were very friendly and easy to talk to - did a good and neat job - Kept to their quote without issue In fact they also noticed a couple of minor issues with a separate flat roof that was outside of their quote and were happy to fix this free of charge.

They gave a very reasonable quote and were available within a very short time. A team of five did the work within two days (they worked very fast), and did a couple extra things for me at no extra charge (the aerial was falling off and there were a couple of bricks that needed to be reset in the chimney and they just did it). They made sure to update me throughout and advise on what the best mode of repair is. They are a great team of people who clearly take pride in their work and I definitely recommend them.

I have used Bennett and Sons before but still checked them out for ratings at C-A-T. I obtained three quotes for the works and Bennett and Sons offered me a market competitive price and confirmed the use of the best materials. They came on the agreed day, completed the work exactly as discussed and showed me their plan and intentions at every stage. They completed a very neat and tidy job for me and offered me full inspection on the roof with Mr Bennett Jnr showing me all that they had done. They cleared up perfectly behind them.

We only required a small chimney stack repair job in the end but Bennett & Sons were very efficient and professional. They arrived when they said they would for the quote and the actual job. Everything was well explained including other queries I had for the roof and guttering and they don't encourage you to have jobs done that are not necessary yet. Even the invoicing was professional. I found the company by asking people I knew for recommendations and would not hesitate to recommend them myself.

Excellent Work
We had a leak causing a lot of damage internally and externally around our box guttering. We were unable to find the source even after extensive searching. Jon came round and made some suggestions on what he thought the problem might be. He quoted us for investigating and repairing the roof. On the agreed date, it happened to be raining heavily, but he turned up first thing in order to set a new date. He duly arrived on the agreed second date, with his team and they proceeded with their investigation, diagnosis and repair. At each stage, he took photos to demonstrate the problem and detail each stage of the repair process. His initial thought – that it was a hole under tiles – was correct. The repair was carried out to a high standard and the problem was rectified. He then followed up days later with a telephone call to ensure the problem was solved and we were happy with his work and the outcome. I would highly recommend Bennet & Sons if you want reliable roofers who turn up on time and will complete the job to a very high standard. Martin, Little Chalfont

Professional approach & excellent job
Very prompt response to my first enquiry call & subsequence visit to access the job of fixing bird spikes one or two areas of the roof. Not many companies have the capacity that Bennet say have of accessing very high roofs like mine. I'm very happy with their professional approach & excellent job.

Very much an excellent service
First time he replaced an outhouse roof. This is my second encounter with Bennett john. The first job was as today. He was really professional, helpful and inspired trust and refused payment. He said 'there was good news and not so good. Firstly the current leak is not serious because sometimes when it rains as heavily as it did on Wednesday, water may drip but he nailed the facia board and used roofing sealant at the edges of the wood. 'Just watch when it rains and leaks again'. He refused to accept any payment or a tip, yet continues.

Good job, good value
Bennett and Sons have undertaken several repairs to a large flat roof on a block of flats in Harrow. They did a very good job at a good price. We were so pleased that we also used them to replace the roof on 4 of our garages at the same address. Again good job done.

I used Bennetts and sons to repair a leaking roof. They were very professional and friendly to talk to. They attended the house for a free quotation promptly. They advised and recommended several options and provided quotes. Gaining access to the roof was a problem for other roofers previously, but Bennet's & Sons managed to gain access using a difficult option. The work was carried out to a very good standard, pictures were provided. I will definitely use them again and will be recommended to friends and family.

Roof repair
I had a tear in the roof lining of a building that was causing quite a bad leak. Bennett attended the same day I called them to take a look and quote for the job and returned the next day that the weather permitted them to carry out the work. The tear was repaired very quickly and effectively and there has been no further leak since.

Mr Bennett senior arrived as arranged to inspect our roof following a leak over the holiday period and gave me a quote for this and some other minor repairs he saw. He attended with his son and another worker at the time and date agreed (between Christmas and New Year) and completed the repairs very quickly for exactly the quoted price. We also enquired about some more major renovations that could wait until the Spring and he again quoted for this. The service was fast, efficient and highly professional. We will use them again and would certainly recommend them.

Bennett and Sons replaced a perspex car port root for me after it was damaged in the recent storms. They were very efficient and hard-working, even working on christmas eve to finish the flashing. The roof subsequently suffered minor damage as a result of a neighbour's roof tile being blown off in another storm. Bennett & Sons fixed the damage quickly. I was very pleased with their respond and the jobs.

I had roof tiles falling off and cracking other roof tiles during the severe early January weather and was quite concerned water will seep through to the inside of the house any minute with the heavy rain that accompanied the strong winds. I have emergency assistance cover with my insurance company, but I was told their contractors will not reach me until after the weekend. I called Bennett & Sons and explained the situation. Both Wayne and Chris turned up a couple of hours after I called (weekend, lots of houses suffering severe weather damage) to inspect the damage and provide a quote. After spending time and effort assessing the damage, they assured me that water was not likely to leak into the house and that they can fix the damage easily. They provided me with a very reasonable quote, especially given how busy they were at the time and that it was an emergency repair. I felt that they were genuinley trying to help as best as they could, and felt confident dealing with them both because they seemed experts at what they do and in no way were they trying to exploit an emergency call at a time when their skills were desperately needed by the community. My intention was to agree the repair and the quote and get the go-ahead from the insurance company as I was confident they will do a professional job. As it turned out, the insurance company's own contractor turned up soon after they left (which I was not expecting) and it was much more convenient for me to go along with that original arrangement simply because they would have dealt with the insurance company directly and without my involvement/form filling/claiming. Of my experience dealing with Wayne and Chris, I am happy to add my recommendation to Which local to support all the other recommendations for Bennett and Sons.

Three chimneys were capped and a fourth chimney fitted with a cowl. The work was completed promptly and efficiently. We chose have this work done because we have recently had some masonry falls (loose mortar) in the fourth chimney, still in use with a coal with a gas fire. I cannot really comment on value for lack of previous experience.

I have nothing but good things to say about Bennett & Sons. It is the service we all crave - reliable, honest and a fair price for the work undertaken - but so rarely get in London. Wayne Bennett was quick off the mark, came round when agreed and moved quickly to sort the repairs. I had an absolute nightmare trying to source a roofer and would have no hesitation in recommending these guys again time and time again.

After looking on Which Local I recommended Bennett and Sons to my Father in Law who had problems with a leaking roof. Having already had a quote for £400 he contacted B & Sons. They happened to be in the vicinity and called when they had finished their current job. They said that the extensive repair recommended by the the previous roofer was unnecessary and did a repair for £120. They, also, carried out some additional work, for additional payment, to damaged lead flashing on the chimney. My F-i-L was VERY pleased and asked me to post a positive review.

I called Bennetts, after finding them in Which Local, to refit a small number of tiles on the house roof. They quoted a competive price and arrived early, after calling to check that this was OK. The Job was done with speed and efficicency, for the price quoted. The roofer also offered to take photos of a couple of items which would need attention in the near future. He suggested using our camera to ensure they'd be photos of our roof! I shall be using them again.

We needed the roof of our house replacing as it had come to the end of it's natural life. We got four companies round to give us a quote and Bennett & Sons were almost a grand cheaper than all of the others. Wayne (Bennett) dropped a a selection of tiles round one evening so we could decide on the colour and was happy to give his opinion on what would look best on our style of property. He also wrote down a number of properties in the area that they had done recently so that we could view the quality of their work. The team of four (headed up by Wayne's son) worked tirelessly from about 7.30am to 4.30pm to get the job done - I even had trouble trying to get them to take a tea break. They managed to re-attach the original decorative ridge tiles (something I'd wanted so that we would preserve some of the original character of our 1910 house), even though we were fitting new concrete tiles and two of the four companies we got round told us that this wouldn't be possible. Wayne returned at the end of the week to inspect the work. There was also no problem when we asked them to come back and replace a tile that had cracked under the weight of scaffolding on our kitchen extension. The team were extremely courteous, diligent, professional and cleaned up before they left. I am extremely pleased with the work they did and would recommend them without hesitation. The roof looks lovely and has even drawn the odd complement from neighbours I've never spoken to before!

I arranged for 3 different companies to look at my roof which I knew needed some work. Two traders arrived and looked at the roof from the road, and immediately said I'd need a completely new roof. This company went up onto the roof to look, and said I had a few years left before it needed any significant work. I had to change the appointment at short notice, and they were prefectly flexible. They arrived on time, completed the repairs and installed a new Velux window for me. Price was incredible compared to the previous quotes, and I will now only call this company for any roof issues I have.

I had a leaking roof when some of my slates slid down. I called 4 roofers some didn't come around when they said they would. Bennett & Sons came to check on time as he said he would and the price he mentioned was the best. It was a small job and he fixed the roof slates there and then, in fact he said some others were coming loose so he fixed them also for the same price. Some more slates moved later on and he fixed it promptly. I needed my roof replaced and again got several quotes. Bennett and Sons was the best quote. They replaced the pitched roof of my house. The job was done on time as agreed. They did a fantastic job.. Great job, good price and prompt. I will use them again for redoing my flat roof soon.
