Gary was excellent very easy to talk to and explained what the job involved doing which in my case was roof tile damage we agreed a price which was very good and he went the extra mile by removing a tile by the chimney stack and replaced the broken one with that one and putting the new back by the chimney stack out of site so that the roof looked uniformed I cannot recommend Gary enough 100%

After past bad experiences with roofers, G. Cain roofing was recommended by a chartered surveyor friend of our son, Gary came out quickly and spent more than an hour assessing the job.He advised it needed a skilled joiner. Not a roofer.( despite other roofers having quoted huge amounts!!! ).There and then he phoned a joiner he has used regularly in his own home and outlined the job to him in detail.That joiner was on site within hours, assessed the job professionally and quoted a " realistic " price! We cannot speak more highly of Gary. He is gentlemanly, obviously scrupulously honest in his business dealings with customers and by his intervention we have achieved a more than satisfactory resolution to our problem. Truly well-satisfied customers to have found a gentleman and professional within a trade seemingly proliferated with charlatans! Thank you, Gary.

The source of the problem was investigated , identified and corrected within five days of initial contact.

Had a problem trying to locate the source of a small amount of dampness around two external chimney stacks. Reading previous reviews I contacted Gary and he was quick to attend, took a look at the two chimney stacks and located the likely source of the problem. From the way Gary went about locating the likely source it was clear that he has both knowledge and experience. He was able to remedy the problem there and then which again demonstrates his professionalism. I would have no hesitation recommending Gary.

Had a leak around the chimney, which was coming in through the bedroom. Called G Cain Roofing and Gary popped round. Explained what he would do to repair the leak. Agreed on a price. Unfortunately what followed was quite a few days of rain, however as soon as it stopped Gary arrived did the fix, called me straight after, went through what he had done and had also fixed a couple of tiles whilst up there. Very honest, and gave me advice regarding some other repairs that are needed. Thank you.

Mr Cain repaired the window very easily. Offered to try to source replacement parts but, following discussion, we agreed that the repair he had completed was all that was needed. He did not charge us any call out fee or anything for his time. Really pleasant company to deal with. Would recommend to anyone looking for an honest, decent roofer.

Never turned up
I called Mr Cain to try get some roofing issues sorted. Seemed pleasant on the phone and said he would turn up that week to give me an idea of things. Called me the next week to apologise and said he’d turn up “today or tomorrow” but haven’t heard from him and it was last week he promised to turn up. Probably great when you get him but unfortunately I couldn’t.

I had a 'pillow' tile come down in the gales and because he could not get one to match (he has been there since 1957) he took one from the back of the house to match in the front and put the new on in the back where it isn't noticed the same. Also a very pleasant man to deal with.

I contacted Gary because of damp in a chimney breast affecting my lounge internal wall thinking roof work was needed. Gary came as promised, identified the issue immediately and the fact that the roof did not need unnecessary work and needless expense. He gave me clear advice and instructions on how solve the issue myself both inside and outside the house saving potentially a lot of outlay. He did not charge for coming to see the problem and advice. I was very impressed with his knowledge and trustworthiness in not undertaking unnecessary work. He is a pleasure to do business with and I will contact Gary in the summer for a different job needed. I would definitely recommend and use again.

I contacted G Cain Roofing about several leaks in my ceiling which were becoming worse. I’d read the really good reviews posted here to identify a trustworthy and professional service. Gary Cain, the proprietor came to view my roof the next day. Gary went up on my roof to identify the problem and within about 10 minutes was back in my lounge showing me photos of the roof having identified the problems, basically whoever had built the roof initially had done a very poor job. Gary was very honest and advised the front half of the roof needed to be completely retiled. Gary provided a couple of quotes based on the quality of materials used ( the labour cost being the same for both). We opted for the higher option reasoning that this would prove the better choice in the long run. Gary’s son and a further 2 or 3 professionals totally rebuilt the roof. The gang were professional, polite and tidy. The roof was completed within the timescale Gary had quoted. Yesterday there was very heavy rain and I was pleased to observe no sign of the leaks. G Cain Roofing Services did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend there services to others.

We have used Gary for several small jobs. He always arrives punctually when asked and arrives at the earliest time possible. The most recent issue we had was slipped tiles on the main roof, there was a birds nest with fledglings in the proximity. He came in to do the work as soon as the birds had flown. He charges a reasonable price and is always so polite and pleasant. He is a pleasure to have on the property and I think he would be a great trader for women who are in their properties on their own. He made me feel so comfortable having him in my home.

I'd recommend him and will keep his details for the other jobs that I shall no doubt need doing as it is an old roof.

I live near the coast road at Ainsdale and we get some strong winds and bad weather at times. That’s why I asked Gary to give me an estimate for a dry ridge and dry verge system to be fitted to the roof. My hope is that this will make the roof more secure against the weather and maintenance free for a few years. Gary gave good advice and has a very honest and straightforward approach. The job was done on time and in a very tidy and efficient manner. The estimate was fair and came in under budget. These people are polite, helpful, reliable and professional – what more could you ask for? Highly recommended – hence the five starts!

As many people will understand I was most appreciative of the small job. Gary took this job on with equal commitment, and it was resolved in 24 hours. I was very stressed about the small job , not sure of the implications to the window/roof join, and again once I contacted Gary I was totally assured. Fairly priced.

Only had to wait a day for job to be done. Trader explained what he had done and the materials, which were superior to the norm. Job was done within thirty minutes, reasonable pricing.

Given that Mr Cain is a roofer he did the repair to my roof in the time frame he set, i.e. when the weather was ok. He took photographs before & after the job to show how good his work is.

Attended my address at very short notice to carry out some minor repair work to my roof, following high winds on Friday 13th Jan. Carried out the repair very efficiently and at a very reasonable price. Most impressed with the service and will certainly use again. I have no hesitation in recommending Gary Cain Roofing Service.

Mr Cain came round to the house very quickly to inspect the kitchen roof, skylight in the main roof and downpipes. He gave me a thorough explanation of what was causing the leak through into the kitchen and what he could do to solve this problem. He also explained how he could reconfigure the drainpipes to stop the water from the main roof running down the kitchen roof. He estimated a maximum price, which was half of the amount quoted by another company. Even though the skylight in the main roof did need some attention, he did not charge me any more than his maximum quote. He checked I was happy and fixed a minor problem a few days after the main work.

Gary is an "exactly what it says on the tin" tradesman. As in his advert, it is he personally who views the job, gives a quote and actions the job supported by his team. The works he did for me were excellent and at a good price. He and his team are prompt, efficient, courteous and tidy. Some weeks after completing works on my property, a minor issue (that couldn't have been foreseen) arose so I called Gary - within three hours two of his team were back on site to resolve. Gary called me that evening to make sure I was happy with the further works. Great Job and great after sales service, I would highly recommend Gary and his team.

I contacted Gary with a view to possibly replacing a roof on our extension. Gary inspected the roof, took photos and was able to reassure me that the replacement of a few broken tiles and a couple of other things would suffice. While he was completing the agreed work he discovered a problem that was not obvious when he first examined the roof and he performed the necessary remedial work at no extra cost because of a slight delay in completion due to weather.

Gary was on holiday when I initially rang but his son returned my call and visited to assess the damage to my roof. On his return, Gary quickly followed up the assessment and gave me valuable advice concerning the work required - saving unnecessary expense wherever possible. The work was completed to a very high quality for a great price. Gary was professional yet approachable and left my property clean and tidy. I highly recommend Gary and wouldn't hesitate in contacting him again in the future.

Straightforward, friendly and honest service. Gary gave me an initial quote explaining what needed doing and why. There was no pressure selling. When I agreed to the job Gary came on the day, completed the job to cost - no mess - as I said completely straightforward - credit to his trade.

Gary was already on a job but called round same day to assess our leaking roof, taking photos for us to see the damage. He gave us a satisfactory quote and started the job as soon as the weather improved. A smashing father & son team, used quality products, cleaned up afterwards and no more leaks. Gary even phoned after a day of rain to make sure all was good and that we were happy. What more could one ask! We'd certainly recommend, and would definitely use again. G Griffin

I can't recommend Gary and his service enough. Leak discovered on the Saturday, he came out on the Sunday and found the problem, came back on Monday while we were at work and all fixed. He came back today, explained what the problem was and checked to make sure everything was ok. Thanks Gary for a quick service, highly recommended :) Hannah and John

Gary came quickly to see the job and kept me updated along the way. Gary was very approachable and explained step by step what needed doing, and what had gone wrong. Gary priced up a job for me and when the job was cheaper he told me this, i've never had a tradesman inform me the job cost less than quoted!

Gary arrived spot on time, checked the roof, took photographs of the damage and explained what repairs would be required and why. Gave a quote. He worked non-stop, showed me photographs post repair, fixed some additional slipped slates that he hadn't noticed on initial inspection. Final price came in under quote. Gary was polite and took time to discuss everything, also putting my 89 year old Mum who's house was being repaired, at ease. Would easily reccommend.
