Shepherd Roofing Ltd

Martin, Craig and the team have just completed roof repairs to an extension at the rear of our house where water ingress has been causing problems for some time. The job included full replacement of lead flashing, timber repairs, and re-slating. Excellent quality work with great attention to detail and care taken to match the style of the existing roof (random widths, diminishing courses). Communication has been excellent throughout, with Martin following up on any queries promptly and keeping us notified about the scheduling of work.

Martin Shepherd and his highly competent team have just completed a challenging job on my house with multiple skill sets required , including slating, stonework, guttering , lead work ( exemplary) and more. They were straightforward, professional, paying close attention to detail and clearly taking a pride in their work. They were entirely reliable with clear communications throughout, on budget and on time ! I’m very pleased with the work they have undertaken for me and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to others.

Shepherd Roofing replaced a tile roof for us and removed and refitted solar panels and replaced a flat roof and velux window. Work was done to a high standard and as originally quoted. Martin kept us up to date with everything throughout the process. Excellent job well done would not hesitate to recommend Martin and his team to family and friends.

I initially contacted Shepherd roofing in February 2022 to advise on some significant pitched and flat roofing work that was required on a rural cottage. Many of the issues had been ongoing since I purchased the property over 20 years ago and had only partially been resolved by x3 previous roofing companies. Shepherd roofing correctly identified these issues and provided a realistic quote for the work using the correct grades of lead, slates etc. Scheduling of the work which commenced in September was very smooth and Martin kept us continually informed on the progress of the work with updates on expected completion times. My overall impression was that he and his team took a good old-fashioned professional pride in their work and were always keen to invite me to inspect how various aspects had been tackled. I was genuinely impressed when they would occasionally redo a certain feature as they weren’t entirely happy with their own workmanship! Their attention to detail was superb and I now (finally) have a roof on the property which I am confident will withstand the stormiest of weather. Visitors to the property since completion have passed favourable comments on the visual standard of the work and I have had no hesitation in praising and recommending Shepherd roofing.

Shepherd Roofing quoted us to replace old cement verge and replace with grey dry verge, also repair / replace ridge tiles. The work was carried out quickly efficiently over two days with the area being left as they found it. The work was done six months ago and it’s as good as the day it was done. We would highly recommend this company and team of workers. Neil @ Val Dunshalt, Fife.

Shepherd Roofing costed the work required to remove chimney, retile the whole roof, replace and fit new PVC cladding, soffits, facia and guttering to our mid terraced house. They also re-roofed our canopy and replaced the guttering on that. The quote Martin gave was the price we paid. There was some other building work which I wanted done at the same time and Martin Shepherd was able to suggest another tradesman who could do the work when the scaffolding was up, which was duly done. The price we paid was exactly what Martin quoted, there was an initial delay in starting because of the vagaries of the weather but we were visited by Martin and Craig in person who kept us informed of what was happening throughout. All Martin's team were well mannered and professional, they took pride in their work and the finished job is excellent. They even came back of their own volition when they realised they did not clean the newly fitted cladding and gutters. There was some initial problem with the old guttering that Martin was able to resolve, by making some changes when fitting the new guttering, he noted a possible issue for our neighbour and said should this occur he would rectify it, a leak was noticed which was fixed the next day by Craig, to the delight of the neighbour. They took care of our property and left the site tidy and safe everyday, taking away old materials daily because of the limited space on site. I would recommend Shepherd Roofing to anyone.

Work done involved ridge tile system replacement on house roof and dormers after storm damage during the winter to give us peace of mind for the future. Initially sought advice on how best to deal with the problem and this was given onsite without any ‘hard sell’ to follow a particular option. The work was started and completed on schedule and for the amount quoted. From first contact to post completion call Martin and his team were excellent. They really are as good as the positive online feedback they have received from others here and elsewhere that led us to contact them. Response times to all communication was quick, updates on how work was progressing were clear and their care around the property was really appreciated. Minor additional issue arose with roof gutter during the job that was dealt with quickly and without any fuss. Highly recommended and would use Shepherd Roofing and Slating again without hesitation.

Shepherd Roofing replaced a broken slate on my roof, they came promptly even though they were busy and did a quality job, cleaning up afterwards. Their charges are fair.

This is one of the best tradesman we have engaged with so far. Martin was very prompt to response via email. He gave a quote to fix our roof (minor repairs) after I provided a picture. It was all fixed on the next day. The workman arrive 10mins before schedule, fixed the roof and cleaned up. The invoice was as quoted. No extras and no drama. I highly recommend using this company for your roofing repairs! Top-Notch!

Shepherd Roofing fixed a problem with my roof a year ago. Other problems developed and I decided that my 50 year old roof was needing replaced. Craig gave me a quote for the work and what I was quoted was what I paid. No hidden extras. I was kept updated about when scaffolding would go up, tiles to be delivered etc. Craig and the lads were respectful, hardworking and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends. My new roof looks great. Many thanks lads.
