AIM North Ltd (Access Inspection Maintenance)

Phil and his team carried out slate roof and chimney/ stonework repairs along with painting of the downpipes and gutter on our tenement building. Communication with Phil was quick and easy from the initial quote request, arranging a visit within a couple of days and providing photos with key detailed information of the work required. This was especially helpful to share with all owners in the building.
They were able to fit the job into the busy schedule ensuring the building was watertight ahead of the winter months. The team completing the work were very efficient and professional keeping me updated throughout. All of the work was carried out to a very high standard. Would definitely use again and also highly recommended to others.

From start to finish, the team was professional and very relaible.

Phil provided a clear and detailed quote and kept me informed throughout the job of what stage the team were at.

All of the repairs were completed to a high standard (slates replaced, old aerials and cabling removed and rendering on chimney face replaced).

This is the second such job that Phil and his team have completed for me within a tenement builidng and I would highly recommend his services.

We had A.I.M. out to clear our guttering in our city centre tenement. Communication was great, really straightforward and responsive. They arrived when they said they would, and were very respectful of the house and pleasant to deal with. I will absolutely use them again, and would recommend them happily.

I discovered areas of damp within my house, linked to the roof. After contacting Phil having found his details online, he (incredibly promptly!) came to have a look and assess the work that may need doing. From the moment he arrived, it was obvious he was incredibly experienced and he made a full assessment of the likely scope of works including removing courses of the roof tiles, replacing a perished membrane and solving an issue of water ingress around the window 'shoulders'. The quote AIM provided - which was incredibly reasonable and amazing value for money - arrived quickly and provided a full breakdown of the work they proposed undertaking and a solution to the water ingress around the windows. Despite the fact they were clearly busy (there were a number of days of storms and high winds which will no doubt have set them back with their volume of work), Phil and Trevor arrived to carry out the work within the timescale they had quoted, and they were able to do it without the need for scaffolding which also represented a huge saving on the work. They were prompt, efficient, incredibly tidy and organised, and a delight to have working on the property. I was kept informed about the job throughout and I am incredibly pleased with the standard of work undertaken. Now my neighbours are asking for AIM's details as I have one of the best looking rooves in the street! It's rare you find such quality tradesmen and I can highly recommend AIM.

I am pleased with the work done by the AIM North LTD.

Phil's team cleaned the gutters, repaired slates and sealed the joints. They were prompt, friendly, efficient and thorough.

I would use them again and highly recommend AIM North.

AIM North Ltd are the best roofers I’ve used in over 40 years. As well as communicating well and doing a good job when they said they would, they did additional last minute work repairing a patch of damaged rendering and removing several bags of rubble and tangled wires - at no extra cost. Highly recommended.

A great job completed and on time too.

Phil communicated fully from start to finish, issued a detailed report before undertaking the job with a full breakdown of costs and images of the issues that needed to be resolved.

The work was undertaken swiftly and efficiently with a follow up report and images of completed work.

The overall cost of the job was half that of the next quote with exactly the same results.

Highly recommended trader!

Phil helped us fix a cast iron down pipe which was split and leaking. Without needing scaffolding they repaired the down pipe with a fibre bandage system via rope access. They checked the down pipe internals with a camera. Prompt, friendly, very happy and will use again.

Phil did an overhaul of our tenement roof. He was thorough and professional and did some extra pointing without charging us. We have used Phil"s services a number of times and will continue to do so. Thoroughly recommended
.

Phil and Chris worked around the weather and sympathetically with our over 200 year old building and its quirks.

Lead work and re-slating were the main work, but window frames were sanded, filled and painted as well.

In short, great service, very professional, helpful and reliable.
Phil was recommended by a friend and his team have done two jobs for us to date.
The first was a tricky job involved lifting shiplap boards to reinstate lead flashing (incorrectly removed by a previous roofer). Very tidy result.
The second was to restore a bedded verge on our roof, which solved a problematic leak.
Even when very busy he managed to fit us in.
Phil communicates really well at all stages - during quotation visit, arranging work, and emailing helpful photos of roof condition before and after work.
He listened to my novice questions and offered pragmatic solutions.

I thoroughly recommend AIM North.

Phil's company is exceptional! I asked him to quote for some roof, guttering and masonry work. He came to look at the job promptly, did a thorough investigation and explained clearly what needed to be done, showing great patience with my numerous basic questions. The price was very reasonable and AIM North even included a couple of small additional jobs while completing the work.
As the work was a shared repairs job, it took a while to source the funds. Phil was very understanding and scheduled the work to allow me to get the funds in place. The work was done efficiently and to a very high standard. The AIM North team are friendly, helpful and highly professional. I strongly recommend them!

Re-pointed roof hips and ridge tiles. Fantastic service from start to finish. Cannot recommend enough. Will definitely use again in the future when needed.

Competitive price, clear information provided and good communication.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend A.I.M North Ltd. This is an excellent firm.

Phil and team did a good job of window fascias at height, and also (I noticed) gave the gutter a clean while they were there (a wee freebie?). They re-arranged their schedule to fit around the window fitters.

Phil was really easy to communicate with, comes across as trustworthy, straight talking, can-do. I'd had quotes from other firms, who didn't have the quality of customer interaction (it seems like quite a 'macho' job, but there's no 'macho attitude' or patronising chat from Phil, which is appreciated).

The job was fairly priced and materials receipts were provided (so costs were transparent). Be careful who you go with in Edinburgh - one of the quotes was almost twice as dear as A.I.M North Ltd.

Good work Phil and team!

The service was really professional and carried out to very high standards. It also constituted really good value for money. On top of everything else, everybody was incredibly nice!

Phil and a colleague repaired cracks in several of our chimney skews, cleaned the gutters, and replaced slates. (It's one of these complicated Edinburgh tenement roofs.) Obviously time will tell how well it was done, but two weeks later there are no leaks despite heavy rain, so it looks good.
Excellent customer service all the way through: Phil came for an estimate, listened (which is remarkably unusual for tradesmen) to what we needed, gave a reasonable estimate in good time, showed up when he said he would, actually seemed to enjoy the work, and answered some questions even after we had paid up. Sent some photos with the both the estimate and the invoice, which was also appreciated.

Slates replaced, re-pointing to mortar around chimney. Cleaning / clearing chimney gutter.

I am delighted that AIM North were recommended to me by a friend. I can’t fault their service at all! Phil came to review my roof the day I called then e-mailed a quote with photos. Work was completed quickly and photos taken to show repairs. I would highly recommend AIM North! So pleased with their service from start to finish and quality of their work was fantastic.

Our roof had slates missing and a suspected issue with our side chimney. On contacting the company, Phil responded quickly and provided a reasonable quote for the work expected. He arrived on time to undertake the work and his communication was really good throughout, keeping us up to date on what he was doing and where works were needed.

Despite difficult weather conditions, Phil and his team mate completed the work quickly and safely. He had a really professional, friendly and pragmatic approach to the work needed & I wouldn't hesitate to use him again if we need roof works doing in the future.

We were very happy with the work undertaken by Phil. Very professional and slick organisation, they clearly know what they were doing and have left our gutters beautifully cleaned out ready for winter. They even sent us photographs of their work.
Very highly recommended
