BSL Home Improvements Ltd

Ben successfully repaired our leaking gutters after another contractor had clearly failed to do so properly. He provided a fast, efficient and courteous service at a very reasonable price. I would not hesitate to call him again in need. Highly recommended.

Ben sorted a couple of slipped tiles on my daughter's roof on the same day she phoned. Very helpful - found a matching tile - and he did a good job. Really good service at a reasonable price.

Ben advised on squirrels in the roof and came up with a solution promptly. He came at the appointed time and did a great job. I would certainly use BSL again..

BSL replaced a complete slate roof for me.They were efficient,pleasant,hard-working and reliable. Ben and his team completed the work in the depths of winter and I am completely satisfied with their work.

A new fibre glass flat roof to replace the old felt one and repointing done at the back of the house. Very efficient, tidy job and it all looks excellent. No hesitation in recommending them.

Our very old flat felt roof on the kitchen extension needed replacing. I found Ben and 1st Class Flat Roofing (now known as BSL Home Improvements) on Which Local. It was a pleasure doing business with him. He was proactive and easy to communicate with. He quickly came round and gave us a detailed quote for a new fibreglass roof, without being pushy. The price was reasonable, the job was completed efficiently and I'm very happy with the end result. I would definitely use Ben again and would highly recommend him.

We needed the flat roof replacing on our garage and obtained a number of quotes. Ben???s was invited to give us a quote, based on other recommendation on Which Local. He know what he was talking about, the quote was detailed and competitive and we liked his attitude. We gave him the job and wasn???t disappointed by our choice. We opted for a new fibre glass roof covering with an insurance backed guarantee. Ben started work on the agreed date and he and his team were diligent, hardworking and we were happy to have them in our home. Ben kept me informed of progress, so there were no surprises at the end of the job and on completion the necessary guarantee was arranged quickly. Ben has expanded his workforce enabling him to offer other building services work including covering all types of roof work. He therefore now also trades as BSL Home Improvements (incorporating 1st Class Roofing). If we were planning on undertaking other types of works I would definitely invite him to quote again. I would have no hesitation in recommending Ben. As they say ??" it was a pleasure doing business with him.

Ben gave me a good quote for a fibre glass flat roof to replace an old asbestos/cement roof. It also needed the roof raising a little to provide better headroom at the rear of the garage. The work was done effectively and efficiently (and without blaring radios). We are very pleased with the roof and Ben and his team's workmanship. Fully recommended.

Ben came promptly when called to inspect and give advice on a leaking felt roof . He explained the alternative solutions very well and then provided a competitive quote for a patch job using felt or complete new fibre glass with the option of including additional insulation. After some consideration and taking into account the age of the felt roof covering and the guarantee provided I decided to go for the new fibre glass roof covering with the additional insulation to bring it up to modern standards. Ben and his team carried out the work very diligently and kept me informed as to what was happening throughout the process. The final invoice was exactly the same as the quotation although he did attend to a couple of other gutter problems on my main roof not covered by the quote. Ben has just started trading as BSL Home Improvements incorporating 1st Class Roofing as he has expanded his work force and is now able to offer other building services including all types of roof work. I have no hesitation in recommending Ben and in addition he was a pleasure to deal with.

During that dreadfully wet weather I noticed a damp smell in a back bedroom and feared that the roof was leaking. I had used Ben's services before and called him to come and check the roof. He told me that I did not need a new roof but that the old Victorian brickwork on the back wall was very wet and the pointing needed to be replaced. He and his brother did the work immediately, in very difficult weather conditions, and the wall was repointed before the damp had penetrated enough to spoil the interior of the room, so I did not need to have the room redecorated. At the same time he advised me that a small area of flat roof on a ground floor extension needed replacing as it was 25 years old and had become soft and spongy. Ha came back this week and I now have a new fibreglass flat roof which has a much longer life expectancy than the old one. Inevitably there were complications and he explained them and sought my approval for additional work that needed to be done. I am delighted with the result and will be using his services for all outside maintainance work in future.

Ben has aptly named his business as his work and service really were 1st Class. He was unable to come to do the work required in January as the weather was appalling but he kept in touch and turned up just as soon as possible. Everything was explained fully and the work was carried out efficiently and professionally. I would happily employ him again should the need arise. Many thanks for a great job!

I can recommend this company, Ben came out very quickly to view my flat roof which was leaking and gave a prompt quote. He sealed the area a few days later and also gave some advice on how to maintain the roof for the future. Ben was very professional and charged a reasonable price for the small job.

We had three flat roofs replaced _ two felt garage roofs and one porch roof replaced with fibreglass. The work was done over four months at the beginning of 2013. Ben gave a reasonably priced accurate estimates which he stuck to despite having to do a little remedial work with at least one roof. Ben was very conscientious and meticulous in ensuring a high standard of work. The installation of the fibreglass roof was delayed until the weather conditions were satisfactory for the curing _ but the two felt roofs were quickly installed. He, and his colleagues, ensured that the contents of the garages were protected during the installations and they were scrupulous about clearing up and leaving everything clean and tidy. The roofs are guaranteed through an insurance scheme _ added security. There was some very slight disorganisation on one of the visits but that can be put down to the pressures introduced by the unreliable and inclement weather. I would trust 1st Class Flat Roofing to do a good professional job at a reasonable price; and will happily use them again.
