Simon Meadwell Roofing

We had a problem with damp and mould coming through onto our ceiling. Contacted Simon who instantly diagnosed the issue to be due to condensation in the roof space. He knew that our property had certain shape of ceiling that made it prone to this problem and he explained the solution. The work was carried out without any fuss in a timely manner and we are very happy with the results.

Simon carried out extensive work to our chimney stack and arranged for a specialist to put a lead roof on our flat bay window top. Both jobs were carried out to an extremely high standard. Communication was good, and everyone involved in the work appeared very knowledgeable. We would have no hesitation in recommending Simon - very happy with the work.

An excellent job was done in every respect. The sun lounge roof was retiled and all debris removed from the site. First-class workmanship at a reasonable price.

1st Class job by Simon and his team, I would have no hesitation in using him again. Highly recommended.

Reason why, once you can arrange a convenient time & day he will attend, also he gives a verbal survey of the job & options if appropriate. He then sends an email quotation. At no stage did I feel brow beaten. "Thanks" Simon

The flat roof on the garage was in serious need of repair so I contacted Simon who had done roofing work for me previously and who I knew to be professional,reliable and trustworthy. He visited and examined the roof and outlined the options. A couple of days later I received a detailed quotation which I was happy to accept. A couple of weeks later he and and his co-worker arrived and did the repairs. There was only limited face-to- face contact between us as it was at the start of the second national lockdown but this did not pose any problems. The work was of a very high standard and the site left tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending Simon to other people.

Simon came highly recommended from a neighbour and we’re really pleased with the job he and Mike have done on our chimney stack. He explained fully what had caused the problem and what they’d done to repair it. They’ve done a thorough job and we’re more than happy to have him back to check on another part of our roof. We have no hesitation in highly recommending Simon’s company.

Had bay roof replaced, new guttering and boards, chimney re-pointed, Simon and Jon are two very skilled and professional people to deal with. So neat tidy and the workmanship is to a very high standard, I would not hesitate to recommend highly enough.

I’ve left voicemail messages twice asking about carrying out work on my chimney. Haven’t had the courtesy to reply.

Quite a complex job repairing slates and lead flashing on a gable end with capping stones. Arrived as planned, scaffolding pre booked, work completed efficiently and Simon kept me informed of the progress. Lead work is fantastic, completed to an old fashioned standard of do it once, do it right.

Included install & move scaffold ( by subcontractor), over clad existing facia and Tudor style timbers, and barge boards etc. All work completed on time. Very satisfied with the work and would recommend to others.

Simon was fully booked up when I first rang him about a roof leak via the air vent but when I rang a second time, explaining that it was urgent because this was the second time we had a leak that was coming through and the previous roofer hadn't fixed it properly, he very kindly agreed to come at once. After fully inspecting the air vent on the roof, he found there was nothing wrong with it at all and asked to inspect the loft. He and his colleague then found the cause of the leak immediately. It was from an internal tube in the loft going from the bathroom to the external roof air vent that had become disconnected and the condensation was dripping down and causing a leak to the bedroom below. He fixed this straightaway, even though it wasn't a roof repair. The previous roofer had said it was the air vent and charged me for supposedly fixing it when there was nothing wrong with it. So he went above and beyond by fixing this. He was quick, honest and solved it. Thank you isn't enough as I was really stressing about this. Simon is honest, reliable, gets to the root of the problem and fixes it. I can highly recommend him!

Really happy with every aspect of the job Simon did for me (replaced my garage roof and repaired the flashings on another roof). From the start, he was very clear about when he would come to quote, and then he did what he promised. No messing about! His quote was clear and detailed, setting out exactly what I’d get - and that clarity highlighted the deficiencies in another firm’s quote, including their under-specification of the rafters. His wasn’t the lowest price, but I rate competence, honesty and fairness over price, and his approach inspired confidence. I have no regrets about choosing his firm - he did an excellent job, no messing about, no blaming third parties (he was having a problem on the first morning with his materials supplier, but didn’t use that as an excuse - he just worked around them) - and the job was carried out bang on time and in a tidy fashion. Just the sort of firm you would wish to deal with.

Having emailed 26 locally based Roofers over a period of months. Of which only 6 made a visit to view the work involved. The price they quoted reflected that they all seemed to be working to early retirement. by sheer luck, I came across Simon and Jon. Their price was very competitive, the standard of work was first class. I would not hesitate in recommending Simon and Jon, as a pair of hard-working honest Tradesmen.

Simon was extremely professional in the way he dealt with the problem my neighbour and myself had with water leaking down the side of the chimney stack into our bedrooms. The quotation was very specific and detailed and after accepting the quote the work was started within 2/3 days. Ed, the guy who did the work, was great and did a fantastic job in very extreme conditions (wet and windy) I would strongly recommend using this company and should I need any further work to be done I would certainly use them.

Simon and his team are professional, knowledgeable and experts in their field. Our flat roof dormer started to leak and we requested 3 quotes from roofing companies here on Which. Simons company stood out for his professionalism and ability to help us choose the right option for our needs. He was the only one to send a letter with an explanation of each type of roofing we could choose and the costs involved including removal of waste etc. His pricing is competitive and the work was completed quickly with no fuss. The scaffolding came down the next working day too. I would highly recommend Simon and his team. You will not be disappointed with their workmanship.

I can recommend Simon Meadwell roofing. I had a porous leaking chimney that was causing damage to the interior of our home. Simon and John took down the failing chimney and re-roofed over the exposed redundant flue. They completed the job quickly and efficiently. They were very tidy and cleaned away all debris which was important as the scaffold had to be sited on the neighbours driveway. Our neighbour was also full of praise for the way the job was carried out. I must add that their price was very competitive.

I thoroughly recommend Simon and Jon. Without doubt I would use them again should I need further roof work. I required a complete re-roof. I wanted the removal of concrete tiles that a previous owner had installed on a Victorian terrace and a re-roof with best reclaimed slate. I wanted to return the roof to how it should be. I approached three roofers from Which Trusted Traders. Simon produced a competitive quote but also seemed to understand what I wanted and demonstrated an interest in ensuring the correct slate was obtained and the look of the roof would be appropriate to the age and style of the house. Simon had excellent communication; answering questions and keeping me updated on start date and progress. Once on the job he and Jon worked through to finish and required nothing from me beyond being left to get on with the work. Simon identified niggly problems with the chimney stack and put them right; he also told me what I didn’t need doing and explained why. On completion, I happily discovered they had swept and tidied up all round the house leaving little trace of their work on the ground and window ledges. The finished job looks great and equally importantly is watertight. Simon is one of the easiest tradespeople I have dealt with; he takes a pride in his work and it shows in the completed job. I'm really pleased with the work and grateful for a job done well.

My problem was a leaking tiled roof. An initial appointment was promptly kept and an estimate of cost and availability was given. The work was completed within the time span given and cost was well within the quotation. The work carried out cured the problem. Work was neat and efficient. When looking for a tradesman to carryout roofing work Simon Meadwell is a trusted person who you can have complete confidence in.

I can’t recommend Simon Meadwell Roofing too highly. After several leaks in our 40 year old roof we decided to go for a complete re-roofing. Simon did the entire job in two weeks; despite some horrendous weather there were no problems. Not only are Simon and John knowledgeable, efficient and hard working they are also friendly and care deeply about their work. The price for this big job was very fair. If you have a roofing problem you know where to go!

I can't speak too highly of Simon Meadwell Roofing. They replaced our 30 year old flat roof which was leaking badly. Simon attended very quickly and provided us with a quote which we accepted. He was unable to commence work for a few weeks because of his annual break in August. However, he managed to find time before his break to cover the roof securely to ensure it was waterproof until he was able to complete the job. He, together with John, then attended as arranged and stripped off the old felt roof etc. and installed a rubber cover flat roof. At the same time they renewed the fascias and guttering. At the conclusion of the work they thoroughly tidied and cleaned the yard. The new roof looks brilliant. Throughout the work, and before, Simon kept us informed of the position. They were friendly but very professional. Over the years I have used various companies to carry out building work and Simon and John have been by far the best. I have no hesitation in recommending them to family and friends.

This was the second job Simon has done for us and it was as impressive as the first. This time Simon did a partial re-roof and it was a pleasantly pain free experience. You get excellent workmanship, great communication, and Simon does what he says he's going to do and at the time he says he'll do it.

Simon visited to assess the job the same day I contacted him. Simon was honest in recommending what was and was not needed. The work was completed over 2 days as promised and with no problems. I am very happy and would not hesitate to use Simon again and to recommend him.
