Essex Roofing Limited

We had a Velux window replaced. The work was brilliant, and the fitter was excellent. Once finished, he cleaned up inside and out. He then demonstrated how the window worked. Deserves a bonus or pay rise

I have used Essex Roofing Limited many times over the years. The work has always been done well. On this occasion, Ali fitted some electric blackout blinds for our Velux windows. It was done very well and he also greased the hinges. The windows were high up in a vaulted ceiling.

Complete reroofing including a Velux window and new gutter pipes. Grade 2 listed house with complicated roof and chimneys. Roofers very friendly even willing to fix a few extra slates on the house behind, in whose drive they had to put some scaffolding. Used scaffolding that would fit in quite awkward places around the house. Local people have seen that the roof has been renewed and asked who did it because they were impressed by the result. Made sure that all the old slates and guttering were removed. Left a few new slates behind in case they had to come back and replace one. Excellent value for money.

We recently engaged Essex Roofing to replace the ridge tiles on our roof. We are really pleased with the work carried out. Lewis and his team are professional, friendly and hard working. The roofers left the site absolutely clean and tidy. This is the second time we have used this company. They also did a great job installing Velux windows for us. I would not hesitate to recommend Essex Roofing.

My daughter’s property had a leaking dormer window and I was tasked with obtaining some quotes for the work. After several other quotes I saw Lewis from Essex Roofing who was very pleasant and explained what needed to be done and very promptly supplied an itemised quote. Lewis was very contactable and responded quickly to any queries we had re the work so we decided to use his firm. Darrell and Harry, who were very pleasant, arrived promptly on the arranged date and carried out the work professionally and left things neat and tidy. Once finished, Darrell showed me photographs of the different stages of the work carried out and explained exactly what had been done. Although we had some quotes which were cheaper, we were glad we used a firm who were professional and reassuring. We would definitely use them again and would recommend them to others.

I’ve invited Lewis and his team back to remove a leaky old boiler blue going through my roof. I’m so glad to have such a professional small business at my disposal. Once again they’ve been great. Highly recommended!

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

Essex roofing were great to deal with. They were quick to respond and very helpful with answering any questions. Professional outfit with clear, competitive quotes and invoices. Very friendly and very straight forward.

Was so quick at responding to my urgent request and completed the work immediately, very professional, prompt with excellent quality and very cost effective.

We had an excellent experience with Essex Roofing when replacing 3 Velux windows. The initial home visit and discussion was a good and informative, and all questions were thoroughly answered. The 3 Velux windows were replaced in one day in an efficient manner, with the workmen being pleasant and clearing up well afterwards. The work was carried out from the inside of the house only, and there was therefore no need to use ladders to access the windows from the outside. This work was carried out in an efficient professional manner from start to finish.

Really pleased with all aspects of my interactions with Essex Roofing. Lewis was helpful and accommodating and his team were great. They replaced two Velux windows and made good the roof and surrounds. Arrived on time, personable and professional. Did a great job - happy to recommend and will use again.

Small job to repair leaking downpipes. Very quick replies to all communication. Date mutually agreed, work carried out quickly, efficiently and at a very reasonable cost. Would highly recommend.

Booked this company to take down a chimney under and cover off with tiles. The quote was competitive and the 3 lads that turned up had the job were polite and left my home tidy. Will be using them again for future roofing work.

I can't recommend Essex Roofing Limited enough. Unfortunately, I lost a ridge tile in a recent storm. I emailed some photos to help with a quote and had the quote within the day after first contact. The work was carried out before the initially suggested date by two extremely polite and professional staff. It's really refreshing to have work carried out with the minimum of fuss by excellent staff. Don't hesitate to contact, these guys!

Excellent service from start to finish, Lewis was quick to provide a quote and then carry out repairs to my grandfathers roof. Professional and helpful. Highly recommend this company. Thank you Essex Roofing.

I wanted two Velux windows in my roof. I went to the Velux website and found three certified installers. Essex Roofing were the only ones who bothered to reply to me. Lewis came to have a look at the job and was knowledgable and answered all my questions. He was helpful in recommending the right windows to fit my needs and the property. The installers turned up on time and just got on with the job. They were polite and competent and used dust sheets and tidied up well after themselves. Very pleased with the results, would highly recommend and already have done to others.
