Had roof leak in dormer attic just before Christmas shut down. WH Kay were very responsive, provided initial quote based on photos and were able to fix the issue before they finished up for the holidays. The cost was more than initially quoted but they advised and agreed that in advance. We subsequently had further leak which they came and resolved. They're very responsive and professional and the roof leaks appear to be fixed.

David and Alan arrived on time to fit an additional handrail on our staircase. They worked efficiently and to an excellent standard. The new handrail matches the existing one perfectly and is very robust. It is exactly what was requested and we are delighted with the end result. Have already recommended them to others.

Alan and David do an annual check and repair of my house roof they also clear and repair gutters, for their sins.
This is the fourth or fifth year of using W.H Kay and I would recommend them for quality of service, workmanship and excellent communication.
It’s refreshing to find a local company provides great quality of work and provides realistic timescales for getting work done.

Fixed some tiles and while doing this, identified a problem with the gutter which he offered to fix.
Turned up on date as planned, carried out work promptly, and as far as I can tell it’s a good job!

We needed a repair to one of our dormers and our guttering renewed. Alan and David worked really hard on our job and had the flexibility to repair another problem we discovered during the job we had contacted them for. They arrived when they said they would and during a time where it looked like they could be rained off to take advantage of an unexpected dry period. They provided ongoing updates to the work they were doing. I would not hesitate to recommend the company.

Investigation and repair of roof leak tracking to bedroom ceiling. Following identification of the source, rotten felt and tiling battens were replaced with new and all moss and debris cleared from tiles, joints and gutter.
WH Kay has been my ‘go to’ for a number of years. Despite being extremely busy, David responded promptly to my call for help. David and Alan kept me informed as they worked to identify the problem with my roof, clearly explained what they found and even provided before and after photos. All work completed to a very high standard.
David and Alan are completely reliable, hard working, always friendly and keen to help. With confidence, I highly recommend their services.
Currently planning replacement and re-design of a large window, David and Alan’s input with their professional expertise is invaluable - I would not consider going anywhere else.

Investigation and repair of a roof leak which was causing water ingress in my house. David and his brother were prompt, kept me informed throughout their investigations and explained what they had found. And then they repaired it, with no issues since.
The original estimate was acceptably accurate, so although the final cost was a little higher this was reasonable given the extra time required to source the problem. And this was explained so there were no surprises.
I’ll definitely use them again and would recommend them highly.

This job was for a small roof leak repair but I have also used WHKay in the past for more major roof work. Always a great job done with courtesy and good communication. Highly recommended!

This is the second time they have worked on the house first time they repointed the roof, this time the gutters were cleaned and 2 broken tiles were replaced on the roof.
They are friendly and respectful when talking with them, knowledgeable and thorough with their work, when they finish they take all their rubbish with them leaving the place tidy.

Successfully dealing with various internal and external maintenance problems.
The brothers carried the following work on our property:
1. Replacing and securing roofing slates.
2. Trimming two internal doors; and repairing damage to one of them.
3. Tightening the front door threshold.
4. Clearing excess silt from external gulleys.
All the work was carried out to a high standard, and we would have no hesitation in using their services again.

I had a leaking roof which I needed to get fixed. WH Kay were able to find the problem and repair it within a few days.
I would recommend them for great communication, reliable service and a fair price. I will definitely be using them again in the future.

We've been having our windows replaced over time, as and when we can afford to do it. This time we had our patio door replaced. The work was finished to a high standard within the day. All the facings are very neatly finished, mitres are perfect. The external finish is neat and tidy too. The UPVC door seems to be a high standard and we're very happy with it; a big improvement over the door that was replaced - we noticed the difference in the warmth in the house the first evening. After the work was completed all the rubbish was taken away and the work area cleaned and vacuumed. David is great to deal with - we'll continue to work with W H Kay for our window and roof repairs as well as any other building jobs around our home.
