Great service from Heritage
Great service from Heritage; following loss of a ridge tile during a recent storm, we decided to replace all the ridge tiles on the roof with dry-verge fix system.
Finding a reputable company or contractor can be challenging and we'd had had a poor experience with 'roofers' before, so we organised several quotes (we had about 4 in the end) and although Heritage were not the cheapest, they seemed to be the most professional. Simon came to visit just after the New Year return to work to discuss the job and quoted. Once we agreed, the job was booked in. The following day, the surveyor came out and ordered the materials and scaffolding, which were all arranged for the following week. We were pleased with the whole process and whilst a little more than perhaps a sole-trader roofer, the quotes we had were not a million miles away from each other, so they're fairly competitive.
As expected, the scaffolding was erected on time and the roofers arrived first thing on the Monday to start the job. Despite a slight hiccup in materials ordering, with a couple of tiles short (the order didn't allow the 5% standard breakages margin), they sorted it out by going to fetch the missing 2 and were done before lunchtime.
The finished result is now a neat, tidy and worry-free roofline.
My only (slight) criticism would be the the overall cost, as they were complete in less than half a day. 2 roofers, so that's one man-day of work. Saying that, the guys were great, didn't mess about upon arrival and cracked on immediately and left no mess (all waste was put into their supplied Hippo bag). Even Stuart was surprised how quick they completed.
We are now just waiting for the waste to be collected by Hippo and the scaffolding to be removed (which Stuart has now started to arrange). I like the way that there is no messing about, or unnecessary, drawn out processes; everything was arranged more or less there and then, so we knew what to expect.
In conclusion, the million dollar question is: Would I use Heritage again, or recommend them? Yes, I would.
