TESTIMONIALS
Gary and his staff did a maintenance job over several days on my 500 year old cottage. They worked fast and efficiently and replaced several hundred frost damaged tiles and repointed where necessary. I am very satisfied with the work and price and would recommend them to anyone.
G S Roofing has been our trusted roofer for a few years now and we have always found them to be reliable and reasonable with their costs. We are pleased with the work they have carried out for us and will continue to use him in the future.
We've just had our gutters done again by GS roofing. Have used them twice now, very polite very good. We would highly recommend them. Excellent service.
I had an issue with pigeons on my roof. Called GS roofing and the have sorted the problem. They responded quickly to come round and it was sorted in no time. Very professional; wanted to fix the problem and generally a really good experience. Would highly recommend. Thanks so much.
Gary came out twice on a weekend and stopped water coming into our son's bedroom! We were so grateful.
Gary and his team replaced our whole roof at the end of last year. They did an excellent job and were a really lovely team. They worked hard, worked tidy and were very friendly. We have now used them again to replace some slipped and broken slates on our garage roof (we haven't had the garage roof done before). Again they have done an excellent job. I would definitely recommend GS Roofing (and I have)!
