Essex Roofing Limited

After a terrible experience with a previous roofer, we obtained quotes from eight roofing contractors from different sources, to ensure that we selected the right firm for the work. The criteria were: reputable, knowledgeable, established contractor, detailed quotation including the lead work required, able to start the work within a reasonable time frame and a price that reflected the level of workmanship we required. Some quotes were too low to expect a proper job, whilst a couple of quotes were eye wateringly expensive. Lewis Woodhouse from Essex Roofing was the only contractor that met every aspect of our selection criteria, and in addition, is a Which Trusted Trader. The Roofers; Joe, Pete and Lloyd took a pride in their workmanship, were polite, helpful, possessed good communication skills and did not object when I joined them on the scaffolding at various stages to observe progress. We are very happy with the completed work and have already recommended Essex Roofing to one of our neighbours.

So impressed with these guys, took them an hour from requesting help to them being at the door, they worked quickly and efficiently! Very friendly and will definitely be using them for any roofing needs in future.

We had a replacement Velux window installed in our loft space. Having been let down by two other companies, we found Essex Roofing. The response to our request for a free quote was quick and Lewis (the company MD) who came was extremely helpful and clear about the job whereas other companies referred to various problems with the installation. Whilst not the cheapest, we found an affordable option with Lewis. Fitting was completed about 2 weeks later. The two man fitting team (Mason & Reece) arrived essentially on time and were polite, respectful of our property, efficient, clean in their work, knowledgeable and helpful. All in all we could not have wished for a better service - thank you!

I had used Essex Roofing Ltd previously, so when rainwater was spilling over the edge of my front guttering consequently causing a loud noise when hitting the driveway, I called Lewis for a quote. He called round very promptly, had the quote later that day and called to fix it the next. The blocked gutter was cleared, connected pipe work was checked and everything was tested. Any Debris was also removed. I have no hesitation in recommending this company. They are very professional, polite, timely and respectful of property.

Essex Roofing Limited had earlier (March 2024) replaced four rooflights on behalf of Velux: this work had been completed on programme in a very professional manner, with minimum inconvenience to us. Lewis was personally involved throughout and kept us informed of progress, order of works etc. Subsequently, we experienced a roof leak emanating from a failed chimney flashing on a separate roof from the Velux works. Once again, Lewis acted promptly and professionally, identifying the problem, proposing the solution and carrying-out the work required. I would not hesitate to recommend Essex Roofing Limited.

Even though the work was a smaller job (fixing blown guttering on roof and cleaning and sealing conservatory guttering), I felt I got the same standard of service I would for a much larger job. Communication was excellent from start to finish and everything happened in a timely and professional manner and according to what had been discussed and in line with the quotation. I was very impressed and will certainly use Essex Roofing Limited again.

We find Lewis and his team brilliant in all the work they do for us. This was the third time we have used Essex Roofing and in all those occasions the work has been excellent, timely and very reasonably priced and nothing is to much trouble.

Great experience from start to finish, prompt, clear on what they would do, when and how. Would highly recommend them.

Lewis from Essex roofing came to provide me with a quote to repair a leak in my roof. He was punctual and polite. He was able to fit me in quicker than I expected - which was great! His team arrived punctually on the day, both Joe and Pete were very customer focused, they explained what they were going to do and how. They kept me updated throughout the day, showing me photos on their mobile phones of their progress - great customer service! Once complete, they spent a long time ensuring everything was tidied up, swept the roof and cleared the gutters of any of their mess. Overall a great experience and I would highly recommend Lewis and Essex Roofing. Thanks gents
