Friendly, professional, thorough.
Having lived more than 40 years in the New Forest we have found Forest Park Roofing the best in the business and would never go elsewhere. Last week they spent two days erecting a tower, fixing gutter leaks, replacing slipped tiles, and putting in two new downpipes which had been in place since 1865. Iain and Chris have always delivered on time and within budget, doing a very skilled job, and always offering that little bit extra. They are true professionals in their approach to each problem and are totally reliable. We will certainly continue using this expert team for any roofing challenges in the future. Hugely recommended.

A first class company
Installation of new Velux Window. Extremely happy with Forest Park Roofing. The initial enquiry, site visit and discussion/explanation of the installation was very clear. The estimate was detailed and comprehensive. They installed a Velux window in a very tricky space expertly, efficiently and quickly. All communications were excellent. A thoroughly professional job and a thoroughly professional company - and everyone was lovely. Highly recommended.

No more leaks!
We had used Iain’s firm in the past for gutter clearing so I was keen to have them again, especially as our sun room roof had developed a leak. We had had someone deal with it, but the leak came back. I contacted them to do it again (happy to pay again if needed), but they never got back to me. Iain by contrast took a look at the job, felt he had a solution and has said that it if leaks again, they’ll come back. After-service care is so important. They guys who did the job were polite, pleasant and efficient and the invoice matched the quote. Would recommend this firm without hesitation.

Velux Window to Kitchen
We initially requested a quote for a sun tunnel for our kitchen which didn't have much natural light but Iain from Forest Park Roofing suggested fitting a Velux window instead which was a much better idea. The quote was reasonable and the work was carried out in a realistic time frame. Iain and his colleague were extremely professional, work was carried out as requested and we are very happy with the end result. All the hassle of building control was dealt with by Iain, the site was left clean and tidy, and all communication both before and after the work was great. I would have no hesitation in using Forest Park Roofing for future work.

Full renovation of roof and five Velux windows at waterside location
They removed all tiles, removed degraded under-felt and battens and upgraded insulation to accessible roof areas throughout, and upgraded five Velux roof-lights which had not been properly installed originally. They also fully refurbished the roof and lead-work to a difficult dormer window that had become a favoured nest site for birds. The quotation was competitive but not the lowest and was chosen after recommendation and also confidence in my first meeting with Iain. As an ex CEO of a major construction company I was looking for certainty in outcome on quality, time and budget in that order, and Iain gave me that confidence on first meeting and did not let me down. The work was completed on time and to budget and included some extra works I requested which were completed within the original timespan and at a sensible price. I thought they would be good but they exceeded my expectations by keeping me well informed of progress, weather difficulties and material matters and being very nice people to do business with. Their approach to site cleanliness was excellent. They also impressed me by investing in young people through a roof apprenticeship scheme. All the team were very polite and considerate. Roof work is technically more challenging than people would realise or expect and needs consistent attention to detail by the installers. Iain's team soon demonstrated that I need not worry about any lack of attention to detail in their work. Very impressive.

Top class work
The job was to replace the battens and tiles on a house over one hundred years old, stripping insulation from the tiles and replacing loft flooring and increasing insulation. I have used Forest Park Roofing before and know of their well deserved reputation. The specification was altered somewhat by me as work progressed. The final price matched the original estimate given various uncertainties in an old house. Our property is in a prominent position in an area used by dog walkers. They and our neighbours, one of whom is a builder, have all commented as to how lovely our new roof looks. From my point of view the whole rather complicated job from planning through to tidying up, cleaning the fascia and picking tile fragments from the lawn was very carefully done. Iain steered me through the choice of tiles and method of fixing, treated the woodworm and strengthened rafters where necessary. The tiles that were reusable were sold on to a reclamation yard and an appropriate sum credited to me. The finish around the outer tiles fits in nicely with a house over a hundred years old. Iain & Chris Bowers at Forest Park Roofing left nothing to chance and left us with a lovely roof with which we are delighted. I can strongly recommend them.

Iain and his crew were professional and efficient. His quote was thorough and competitive and the guarantee was reassuring. His work was superb. Clean and polite they worked tirelessly in hot conditions. Explaining his methods and providing lots of evidence of his progress we were really pleased with the result. The test came this week when heavy rain and strong winds would usually have us looking at the ceiling and waiting for leaks but this repair was spot on. No leaks and a piece of mind going forward that enabled us to finally relax during bad storms. I would thoroughly recommend this company to anyone. To Iain and his team a very big thank you.

Replacement of two Velux windows
Really happy with the whole experience of dealing with Forest Park Roofing. Initial contact was made via email, which was promptly replied too. Site visit followed and questions regarding installation well answered. Competitive estimate followed which we accepted and schedule agreed. Any contact, whether email, message or calls were answered timely and communications throughout were excellent. The job itself was executed efficiently and professionally according to plan. No ‘extras’ were found during the installation and job was completed to initial estimate. We are really happy with the installation of the new Velux’s. All scrap materials were removed and the everything left tidy. I would have no hesitation with recommending Forest Park Roofing and cannot fault any of the service they provided.

Solid fast work
Iain came to look at our listed building and quickly went on to our roof back and front. He took many photographs and showed them to us. He gave us an estimate, date and a time for the work which was 08:20 on a Friday morning. They arrived at 08:20, erected a tower, and started work on the many, though luckily minor, repairs needed. I took coffee and biscuits out at 10:30, being the time they said they took a break. They had the coffee, ate all the biscuits and said they had finished the job. It was professional, there was no messing, they got on with the job, did all the repairs and were charming and friendly. They said they would come back and refix a rogue piece of guttering, which was nothing to do with the job we had hired them for, and they did so 2 days later at very little cost. The price for the whole job was exactly as the estimate and very reasonable. It is a relief to deal with such a normal and professional company. They answered all my messages quickly.

Replacing a leaking Asbestos roof with Plastic coated steel sheets.
The roofing work concerned was part of a larger project to rehabilitate a former farm building for commercial storage purpose and the tasks to be done by Forest Park Roofing included replacing rusted metal purlins, installing 60 square meters of anti- con plastisol coated metal roof profile sheets , and fitting foam fillers and barge flashings where required. To avoid slippage of an already tight schedule, their work had to be coordinated carefully with that by other contractors handling the asbestos removal . At the outset of the project the Forest Park team had provided an excellent proposal which defined the materials they would require and the costs and time they expected to need to complete the work. They arrived on time, did a top quality job, and they completed it in the time allowed and at the price agreed at the outset.

Their quote was realistic for the work involved and the work was completed within the timescale given.

Forest Park Roofing repaired two dormer roofs, repointed a boiler chimney flu stack and carried out miscellaneous tile repairs on my chalet style house. These repairs were non-urgent and the company had been recommended to me by a friend. When surveying the job Forest Park provided much useful advice on repair options/costs and helped me settle on a proposed scheme of work that was not the most expensive but met my expectation in terms of budget and longevity. Iain and his team of four arrived onsite on time and on schedule. The work was completed as planned within the quoted time window. Quality of workmanship was high and I was consulted/informed at all times during the course of the work. I highly recommend this company and owners for professionalism, quality of work and friendly, helpful manner in which they conduct themselves. This firm was professional in quoting for the job and providing supporting information on competency, insurance liability etc. On completion I received full certification and warranty documentation for work completed.

Ultra professional
I had an issue with my Velux roof window in my conservatory that would not fully shut which would at times allow rain water to drip onto the floor. I contacted Iain at Forest Park Roofing and he came out that same day, he undertook numerous tests/trials on the roof surrounding the window and again inside the Conservatory before substantiating what the issue was. Iain ordered the relevant part and left the window in a locked stare that ensured no rainwater could come into the Conservatory whilst waiting for the part to be delivered. Upon arrival, Iain fitted the part and the problem is now one hundred percent resolved. I can highly recommend Iain to anyone with the upmost confidence of having seen him undertake our issue in a very friendly, amicable and ultra-professional manner and service. Thank you once again, Iain, superb.

Iain was recommended to me by a family member who has used his roofing services a number of times and knew what great service, and honesty, we would get from him. Having moved into a house, we had noticed a number of leaks into our kitchen and wanted some advice on what options were available to us. Iain surveyed the property and detailed four different options available to us, with varying price points and at no point were we felt pushed into the more expensive options which was so lovely. From contacting Iain to the new roof being completed, the whole team have been amazingly professional and they fitted us in to have the job done so quickly (around the wet weather) so we could not be more pleased. I have zero hesitation in recommending Forest Park Roofing to anyone and honestly wish that all tradesmen were able to provide the same amazing service and professionalism.

Extremely helpful, devoted time to getting the right outcome for me
Iain patiently spent weeks before I ordered from him helping me choose between many options in replacing a Velux window and fitting an electric blind to it. He invested time helping me understand the features of each option and the respective prices. On the day of fitting he realised the blind was wrong and he immediately offered to get the correct one and fit it before charging me a penny for any part of the job. Whilst on our roof he included a small job for my elderly neighbour who had allowed us easy access via his garden which was very helpful to us both. He also made use of my existing controller saving the need for two new controllers. Iain was pleasant to deal with at every stage and clearly wants the best outcome for his customers. I would be delighted to give Iain more business and to recommend him without reservation to anyone I know.

When we first contact, Iain told us quite frankly it would be months before they could start work. This meant customers consider them first class. We waited and accepted their quotation (not the cheapest but an acceptable price) and we are so pleased we gave the work to them. Every thing was done with great care, they instructed their scaffolders to take care, and they instructed the skips to be placed on the road. The roofing work was done meticulously and without any disruption to our property even though they were replacing the roof.

Reliable, trustworthy and efficient
Forest Park Roofing visited to assess damage done when a large tile had slipped off a steep roof section due to a batten splitting due to water ingress through damaged cement at the side of a balcony where it meets the edge of the roof. Ian and his colleagues discussed the problem with us, assessed the work which needed to be done, giving us a time to do the work and a quote for the job. They turned up when they said they would, worked steadily and quietly to get the job done and were helpful and very pleasant throughout. We mentioned another issue on a different side of the roof and once the tile and batten had been replaced, along with another lower batten which they also found to be faulty, the cement removed and repaired, Ian checked and adjusted the tiled area to the other side of the roof as mentioned on initial visit, without need for reminder. He then returned a few days later to tidy up the cement which he had replaced at the side of the balcony and extended the gutter pipe for us which had caused water to drip down the cemented area of the balcony and roof. We were very pleased with the job done for us by Forest Park Roofing and felt that value for money for the service provided was very good. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company.

We have used Forest Park Roofing for the second time. The first was replacing several velux windows on a previous property.

Insect screen fitted inside a light tunnel, Velux said it couldn't be done, well they did, and it works fine and looks good. came back twice to ensure all work done over two days, paint has to dry, before finishing, fully recommended.

Excellent work for the price quoted. Minimum disruption during week of very poor weather. Iain and Chris hard working, quiet (unusually with no loud radio!) and self sufficient. 2 very minor problems sorted out immediately.

Seagulls nesting on Chimneys
Each year we have problems with seagulls nesting on our chimneys and making a mess, blocking gutters etc. We have tried several times to get builders to look at the chimneys and seagull-proof them, but nobody would do it. Access to the chimneys is quite awkward. Luckily Iain and Chris managed to come and look at our chimneys before the seagulls started nesting and have fixed plastic spikes up there....... Now, after many years, the seagulls are not interested in our chimneys! :-) Iain and Chris were polite, arrived on time and were very tidy and professional. Would highly recommend them. Could not fault them at all. Thank you for sorting out our seagull problem!

Excellent, Professional and a pleasure to communicate with.
Forest Park Roofing were extremely good in responding to my request for a quote and were prompt and on time for all arrangements. They were very clear in all communications wether by text, email or phone. Pricing and quotes were clear and did not deviate from what was agreed and the finished job is excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend them for any roofing work. It is refreshing to find a company you can rely on to deliver and complete work as stated.

New roof on garage
Forest Park Roofing provided an excellent service from responding to my initial enquiry to advice on the work to be carried out along with the options available. Their quote was clear and the work was completed as arranged and despite poor weather they kept me informed of any changes to the time they were expecting to carry out the work. Was impressed with the guarantee provided and the final bill matched the quotation. Would definitely use again

Roof repairs
We have had a number of repairs successfully completed by Iain and Chris. Their workmanship is good, they can be relied upon to tackle a range of roofing problems. They turn up on schedule, communicate well and are Covid compliant. Their quotations and final invoices tally so no surprises there. Site management and clearance is good. Importantly we trust their judgement and expertise within their trade and therefore have confidence in the outcome.

Good work and good communication
After being let down by two other roofers I was really grateful for the helpfulness and efficiency of Forest Park Roofers. They kept me informed as to when the work would be completed, arrived when they said they would and the quality of work was excellent. On top of this as the work didn't take as long as they expected I was given a reduction on the original quote. I would have no hesitation in using them again and recommending them to anybody.

Velux windows servicing
Forest Park Roofing serviced 5 Velux windows for us. We were aware that they had Which? Trusted Trader accreditation, and were also approved Velux installers. We were also aware that they had done an excellent job re-roofing our property several years ago, before we bought it. They were clearly going to be our first choice for getting the windows serviced. Iain and Chris were very helpful and considerate throughout. The work involved was clearly specified. It was carried out neatly, tidily, and as specified. As a bonus, they sent us a comprehensive suite of photos of the re-roofing work they had completed several years ago - and which still features prominently on their website! We would have no hesitation in recommending this company, or in using their services again if required.

Repairs to the roof
Work was done investigating and repairing leak to dormer cheek. Broken tiles were replaced to rear and front elevation. This was a very efficient and quick job from receiving a quote, to arriving bang on time to start the job. I found the company to be totally trustworthy. They estimated half a days work at £300 to £400 because they were ensure what they would find until tiles were lifted. The job was completed in one hour as work was more straightforward and the problems easily solved so the total bill was for only one hour and not half a day. Highly recommend this family business.

Replacement of Velux windows in two bathrooms.
After replacing two Velux bedroom windows earlier in the year, we asked Forest Park Roofing to revisit us to replace two further Velux windows in our bathrooms. Again the work was carried out in the agreed timescale and on budget. Their standards of work are excellent and in our opinion go way beyond normal expectations, in room preparation, execution and cleanliness.

The first step towards renovating a neglected bungalow
After contacting three local roofing contractors, I decided on Forest Park as they are a Which? Trusted Trader and they came highly recommended by a friend of ours. Their estimate was less that half of one of the others who provided a figure and the final invoice came in at the higher end of the range quoted in the estimate despite including the rerun of two hips as additional work found. The work involved removing years of moss and filth from our newly purchased bungalow roof. This was done by hand, not pressure washer, with the mess cleared and removed from the site. Finally the roof was spray sealed. The tiles ended up looking as clean and new as one could expect on a roof constructed in 1994. It was a superb job and the bungalow already looks less derelict and one big step towards being habitable. The work was completed in the timescale suggested plus a day extra for the additional work identified. Iain communicated well on the scheduling and agreement of dates and all his documentation was of a high standard. I would recommend Forest Park Roofing for any roofing job.

Velux blind replacements
2 Velux window blinds replaced in kitchen. I chose Forest Park Roofing because they were approved by Velux and were in in our local area. Iain and Chris Bowers responded quickly to my telephone call and inspected my broken window blind. This needed to be replaced, together with a second blind that had to match it. These were ordered and collected by them and the new blinds were fitted twenty days later. They were very helpful and professional, as was their correspondence and invoicing. I would use this company again.

Velux skylight added
Iain and Chris have done an excellent job of inserting a Velux skylight into our kitchen’s flat roof. This only took them a day and a half to complete and the roof and skylight were watertight before they left at the end of the first day. They dealt with everything very professionally including organising the electrician and dealing with Building Control. Would happily use them again and can thoroughly recommend them.

Iain and Chris always advised when they were likely to arrive each day and turned up on time. As the weather was good they worked very quickly to complete ahead of schedule, even working a Saturday. They kept us informed of progress and provided photos of areas with problems/rot etc. They also advised on remedies and costings for any extras and did not push for us to take the most expensive option.

Iain and Chris had already repaired a leak in the roof in July and returned to repoint the chimney. I was more than happy with the work completed in both jobs which turned out to be more reasonable than first quoted in the second job. It is difficult to find tradespeople you feel you can trust when you have no idea about roofing problems but I certainly feel I would recommend Forest Park Roofing and would call upon them for any other roofing issues.

Excellent complete slate roof refurbishment and chimney work
Fantastic and friendly service. We would highly recommend Forest Park Roofing. Iain and Chris did an excellent & professional job on our Welsh slate roof. This required a complete refurbishment with new battens, new felt and re-use of the old slates plus additional loft insulation. The work has been done to the highest quality including sourcing some old matching slates as needed. The price was very reasonable. Iain and Chris were very considerate, working around the weather to ensure the house was always weather proof. The quote was thorough and identified some possible extra work (eg chimney re-pointing and leadwork) which might be necessary on closer inspection. They kept us fully informed on progress so there were no surprises. They work long hours, are very polite and clean up as they go.

We have used Forest Park Roofing on several occasions over the last 3 to 4 years. They have fitted a glass roof, sun tunnels and also replaced guttering. The latest work undertaken was fitting a velux window into an old cottage roof. The work was completed without issue and all required building regs organised. Excellent work guys, you will be getting another call when more work is required.

Roof leaks, trace and repair jobs : and new skylight installations
We have employed Forest Park Roofing on at least 7 occasions over the last 4 years. . The jobs have included tracing leaks and rectifying poor workmanship by other contractors on the roof of a new church hall, restoring the roofs on two semi derelict farm buildings, installing velux roof windows and a sun tunnel on a residential property, and dealing with a difficult leak from a valley between two intersecting tiled roofs. They have had a 100% success record with all these jobs and are now definitely our preferred roofing contractor for any such work that we require . The two brothers that run the company also do the work and actually have to do what they promise. That includes timing and scope of work , so there are no misunderstandings. They are true roofing professionals with wide knowledge of new materials and techniques . They are also very considerate during a job when some customer inconvenience is inevitable, they keep to their priced quotations unless unforeseen circumstances intervene, and if these do arise they discuss the problem with the customer at the earliest possible stage. They are meticulous in their work and are a delight to deal with.

Refurbish main roof and porch-Excellent job
From first contact to completion of job I cannot fault them. It makes a change in this day and age of "rogue traders" to have complete confidence in Forest Park Roofing. Iain and Chris are a friendly,professional, hard working team and I would not hesitate to recommend them. They explained to me exactly what they were going to do, after all a new main roof and porch is not exactly a minor job. The price was very competitive compared to other quotes I obtained, so overall I am absolutely delighted. Well done!
