Garage Roof Replaced and Porch Roof Repaired

I originally contacted Mark B in April to obtain quote for the 2 elements. Mark A came out and viewed the property, taking measurements and talk about types of tile etc. Received my quotation a couple of days later which I accepted knowing that there would be a wait. Before the work commenced I needed to prune a hydrangea that grows on one side of the garage. Before I started I noticed a Robin nesting in the plant so advised Mark B that there would be delay my end. It wasn't until end of May that I was certain that the nest had been abandoned and could prune the hydrangea back. I then contacted Mark B to say I was ready. He called to advise work would start mid-July. Mark A started work on the garage Friday 19th and completed the both it and the porch by Mon 29th. The trailer was collected on 1 August. Mark A kept me informed throughout what he had done, explaining any issues he'd come across. Why have I left a delay before posting this review, well I wanted to wait until I'd had a decent bit of rain to ensure the repairs worked. Well I can say that after Storm Lilian, that water is running off the roofs nicely and I have no water ingress in either the garage or porch. Will be using Mark's services again.

Rotting wooden fascia boards replaced with uPVC & soffits added where required. Quotation received 25/05/24 with notice that waiting list of over 2 months envisaged. Terms acceptable. Job started 08/08/24, finished 12/08/24 (weather influence). Initial job requests from end of March to mid-May to other contractors (no job too small); completely unanswered,CheckaTrade were not helpful. I am a WHICH? subscriber &,belatedly, remembered they have a national register of reliable tradesmen. Instant success with Birchenough Construction. Initial inspection competent & follow-up query answered immediately. Mark Adshead did an excellent job and kept to his schedule, cleaned the site at the end & removed all accumulated rubbish. Communication at all times was exemplary.

Complete reroof of a terraced house of 1893 vintage. They were prompt in answering my email, and then surveyed the job at the right time. At all times I was kept informed about progress, dates for scaffolding to be installed and removed, and the progress of the work, which was completed to a very high standard in a reasonable time. Also pointing of chimney stacks and repair of lead flashing was done also to the same high standard. My new roof will hopefully last for many years now.

I had three tradesmen look at my roof and fascias without obtaining a consistent diagnosis or action plan. I looked up roofers on Which Trusted Traders and this company came up. Mark (not owner Mark) came to assess the issues and came up with a plan which included a couple of items of which I was not aware. The same Mark eventually came to do the work and was clearly in his element and proceeded without fuss and also kept me informed of results. I am delighted with the outcome which even to me looks slick and professional and communication with Mark was both easy and informative. I hope I won't need him again but this company would definitely be my first call

Needed to get garage roof repaired . It was leaking badly. Felt very reassured when the person booked to do the repair did a temporary waterproofing and came to see that this had worked after the first storms we had .Work completed on time and in budget possibly not the cheapest but the quality of work surpassed this. Nothing has gone wrong since.

I was very satisfied with the work Mark A has carried out on my chimneys and carport roof. He kept me informed at each stage throughout his time at my property, explaining in detail what he would be doing before carrying out the work professionally and completing to a high standard. I would have no hesitation in recommending Birchenough Construction as I think Mark’s knowledge and expertise is very reassuring, he put my mind at rest that there was no work being carried out unnecessarily. It was also pleasing that the finished job was completed for the estimated price with no additional costs incurred.

I contacted Mark Birchenough Construction to check over and make repairs to my roof after another roofer told me I needed a complete re-roof. Their roofer came to the property very quickly and made a thorough estimate to complete the work. As expected, there was a short wait to get the work done but Mark communicated this clearly and the work was completed exactly when he said it would be. We had a number of tiles repaired and replaced, the chimney re-pointed and the ridge tiles seated and re-pointed, and the bill was very fair considering the amount of work done. The roofer talked me through any points of concern for the future and showed me photos of what had been completed. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with both the service and the quality of the work completed. I have another small roofing job to do and will be contacting Mark again today. Highly recommended.

The damaged lead flashing in a roof valley and chimney cowl replacements were completed exactly as per quotation and within the estimated timescale and at the quoted cost estimate. I was kept informed on access requirements (for the scaffolding) and updated on progress at all times, and the site was left nice and clean. Maybe not the cheapest, but a good honest well done job. This is the second time I have employed the company and do not hesitate to recommend them.

Birchenough Construction recently completed the felting and reslating the front section of our roof. Throughout the proceedings they carried out their work in a very professional manner; they were punctual, considerate and always kept us up to date with progress. They were particularly careful not to damage the lawn or plants in the front garden. We are very satisfied with the result. The cost of the work was good value. We would recommend Birchenough Construction's services for any roofing repairs on any building work that requires professional attention.

This is the second time we have used this company. They have always been honest, quoted a competitive price and not tried to do works that are not required (other companies told us we needed an entire new roof when most of it is perfectly decent). Most importantly they have communicated what they were doing and why. Would absolutely use again - have already recommended to a friend!

Having used Birchenough Construction previously (2016) we had no hesitation in contacting them again with regards to having a complete new roof on a property that we had acquired After receiving the estimate and agreeing the price (which was very competitive) the work was started on the agreed time and date. We were kept fully informed as to what was happening at all stages of the work as it progressed. Mark (the roofer) was very helpful and a complete professional. We are completely happy with the work that was carried out and would have no hesitation in recommending Birchenough Construction to anyone who is looking to have any work carried out. We would definitely use them in the future. Big thanks to all.

The work to replace my roof was carried out in accordance with the agreed quotation with no additional costs incurred. Mr Birchenough and his team were highly professional in all aspects of the job and the work was carried out promptly and in a timely, convenient way. At all times they were courteous and showed respect for my home, keeping everything clean and tidy. Mr Birchenough demonstrated knowledge and expertise beyond my normal expectations formed from experiences with other builders, proving his wealth of experience, level of skill and integrity. The quotation for the job was at the lower end of the estimates I obtained for the necessary work and I am thoroughly satisfied with the end result. I can confirm that there have been no problems or faults since completion of the work two years ago and I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Birchenough.

Birchenough Construction responded very quickly when called about a leak to our roof. A roofer came the same day to inspect and estimate. The formal estimate (£360 inc VAT) arrived quickly from Birchenough and the roofer returned early the following week to make the repair and followed up with a subsequent visit to check that everything was OK. The roofer was punctual, polite and professional and the work appears to have been carried out well. I was very surprised that making the repair took one man less than an hour and wrote to Birchenough to point out that a bill of £360 for less than two hours work, including the visits to estimate and then to check things were OK after the repair, is exorbitant and not what I would expect from a Which Trusted trader. I received no response to this letter.

I was fortunate enough to find Mark Birchenough to carry out roofing repairs, after three weeks of trying other firms who didn't even bother to turn up when promised. Mark responded quickly in arranging an assessment visit by one of his roofers at short notice. He arrived bank holiday Monday, was friendly, helpful, took photos to show us the problem and what needed doing. The quote from mark was very quick, done by email, so we were able to get the work arranged quickly. the same roofer did the work, spaced over two days because of the weather, came back to check it out and confirm everything was satisfactory. he cleared away all the rubbish and was generally pleasant and efficient. This work was agreed and carried out when the firm was extremely busy because of the heavy rain damage throughout the area. I have nothing but praise for mark and his roofer, who did what they promised, turned up when they promised and completed the work quickly and efficiently. They will be my first choice if we ever need roofing work again.
