We have used Hellings Brothers before for roof repairs and found them reliable and providing quality work. This time was for more significant work which was carried out efficiently and well. Good quality work as before carried out in the timescale stated. The final cost was the same as the quote. I would recommend them.

I had ivy and leaking roof but also had a tight budget against a background of urgency so I can out the house on the market. Hellings were superb, highly professional and efficient with a very sympathetic and caring approach to the job. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Hellings - they are simply brilliant!

Chimney flashing repair

I messaged the company and they promptly got back and we arranged a visit. They were quite thorough checking out two areas of dampness including the use of a drone to see how the flashing and surrounding area of the chimney was. They gave me a quote within hours of leaving while I had to chase down other contractors. Their quote was quite acceptable so we agreed. They had given a 10 week lead time but managed to squeeze us in much sooner. Work looked to be done well (they took photos for me) and were neat and tidy. Hopefully are damp problem has been removed.

When l first bought my current house, l soon had roof problems and then traders who were not good. I have had Hellings Bros do excellent repairs on several different parts of the roof over more than 20 years now and have always found them to be courteous, reliable and professional. They have just replaced a failing box gully and repaired a parapet wall. I was very pleased that they were able fit me in to do the work earlier than expected, and the invoice was in line with the quote. I don’t trust anyone else with my roof now.

Very efficient and friendly service
I had two separate jobs done. The first was to repair a small leak, which was done at pretty short notice. The second was routine maintenance for which I went on the two month waiting list. In each case I was given a comprehensive quote which was fully honoured, kept up to date with plans and progress, and was very satisfied with the quality and efficiency of the work. They were very tidy and considerate. I can thoroughly recommend this company.

We've used Hellings Brothers for roofing, soffit and guttering repairs over several years. Work is to a very high standard with great attention to detail. They're nice to deal with and have an excellent reputation in our area. They usually have a waiting list for non-urgent work ...but it's worth waiting.

We have used Helling Brothers for many years - at our own home and my late mothers property. Sam came today to clear the gutters, repair a broken gutter and to give us a ‘well roof’ check. As always, he was on time, very polite. Carried out the work swiftly, professionally and without fuss. All the debris was taken with him. He even raised the end of one gutter up to give a better drain away. The price was as quoted and very reasonable. Without a doubt, the best roofing company I have ever used. More than happy to recommend.

Hellings Brothers have done two different jobs for us in the past year both of which were completed to a very high standard. The most recent work involved removing the old soaker system and fitting new lead soakers against the window corner. Then to reinstate tiles cementing the verge back in place. The work was completed the same day to their usual high standards. They arrived on time and left the drive very clean. We were very happy with the completed work.

100% RECOMMENDED! ABSOLUTELY PERFECT SERVICE! The rain ingress around my boiler flue has been completely prevented by Hellings Brothers cleaning off all the debis from the flue and applying a flexible "ACRYPOL" sealant around the the boiler flue. As requested, the scaffolding to access the 3rd floor roof was correctly put up, so as not to restrict access to my neighbours's garage, on the 28 Oct 2025 and removed the next day 29 Oct 2025.

The job on our old roof entailed checking for slipped slates, to clean out the gutters and flush down pipes. They came on an agreed day and time and completed the works for the agreed quote. We have been using Hellings Brothers services for 26 years. Their work is extremely good and efficient. They always courteous and happy to offer good and knowledgeable advice.

Having been ripped off by a roofing company before I was nervous about calling another one. This experience could not have been more different. An immediate response to my mail enquiry, followed by a next-day inspection, and although a small repair, it was carried out the following day. I cannot recommend this firm highly enough.

I found the Helling Brothers , which are local to myself , via Which Trusted Traders. They are without doubt the most professional hassle free team I have come across. From start to finish (at first doing an emergency repair to the flat roof) They then carried out work for a permanent replacement to the leaded flat roof at the back of the property over the bathroom , plus replacing , at the front the gables. Cannot recommend highly enough and would never hesitate to use again.

After an initial inspection and agreeing that our roof lights needed replacing Lee and his team worked swiftly to make a good job of that and some minor repairs. Everything was clearly explained and care during the work and clearing afterwards left me admiring their professionalism.

Slipped tiles - excellent work

We thoroughly recommend Hellings Brothers. They have looked after our roof for many years and have always been reliable, helpful and prompt. On this occasion, they quickly and successfully responded when we had a number of slipped tiles which were the result of recent high winds. They got back to us with a quote on the same day that we contacted them and completed the work with the minimum of fuss a few days later. So thank you Hellings, for your efficient and professional work. Whenever anyone asks us to recommend a roofer, yours is the name that we give.

The estimate to repair the leaking roof was provided promptly and they arrived to repair the roof at the agreed time. The roof doesn't leak now. The invoice was for slightly less than the estimate. Hellings Brothers have a good reputation locally, and I'd use their services again without hesitation.

Gutter replacement - job done

Quote visit arranged by returned call. Professional quotation received soon after site visit. Although long lead time quoted (3 months) to do the job due to their work load, were courteous when called to arrange a mutually convenient date and time to do the job after 6 weeks. Arrived on time on the date agreed (2 months after quote to the day!) and completed the job. Tidy job and cleared after themselves. Looks good though not tested but I am sure they would return if needed but trust their years of experience that it will function as expected.

I had a leak into the front bedroom by the chimney breast. Sam from Hellings Brothers came round assessed the problem and sent me an estimate within an hour. He explained that they were really busy but he would try and fit my job in as soon as he could. He was as good as his word and turned up on the date arranged at the time specified. Sam and his colleague removed the cement fillets from my half of chimney and fitted new lead soakers and new lead flashings. I also had some weeds growing around the chimney which they kindly removed as well as replacing three tiles for me. I was very impressed with their workmanship and the way he explained everything that they had done, with photos too. They were polite and very professional, I highly recommend them.
