Compass Roofing Ltd

Had a damaged roof ridge tile replaced along with the mortar around the other ridge tiles. Friendly, informative and efficient.

Our roof was badly damaged by excessive winds in a storm back in May leaving us with an emergency situation. We called Compass Roofing who responded immediately by sending roofers out to make a temporary repair and made our roof watertight. They subsequently fully repaired the roof and have done an excellent job. They've been completely professional throughout each stage of the work and really good to deal with, always friendly,efficient and reliable. I've been extremely impressed by their service and would have no hesitation in highly recommending them.

I highly recommend Compass Roofing . From the first telephone call to the last slate on my new roof Compass roofing delivered a top rate - 5 star service .

The project team were extremely professional and gave outstanding customer service. The team guided by Lewis were highly skilled and very polite. They took great pride in doing a good job and kept me fully informed with regular updates and pictures during the installation.

The last time the roof looked so good was when the house was built 100+ years ago. What an amazing transformation.

Four different jobs, two roof repairs and two stopping leaks through a wall. One involved a lot of rebuilding and coordination with another company, which worked very effectively and efficiently. We have kept using Compass because problems with our old house are assessed and solved, the work is done extremely well and quickly, with minimal disruption and everyone who comes to the house works hard and is no bother to have around.

Roof repair was required.

The job appraiser was very knowledgeable as expected but also took the time to educate me in elements of roof structure and repair.

He thought of alternative working procedures to bring the cost of the job down whilst still achieving a repair identical to other roofers’ proposals.

Looking at the central management of the company, the customer service provided was excellent, particularly during pandemic restrictions. I was kept well informed and a niche repair time requirement was accommodated.

I’m very happy with Compass’ service.

We had a leaking roof due to storm damage. Compass Roofing responded to my call quickly and got roofers out to do a temporary fix very quickly, even though it was a Saturday afternoon and getting dark. Very happy with the service.

Called out for emergency repair work (Sunday evening) on a roof access hatch during high winds. Callout charge wasn't cheap but they arrived quickly and did the best patch that could be done in the situation.

Overall very happy with the service provided.

The steep roof of our pre-1830 shared tenement building was leaking and needed a number of repairs, including to cracked lead. Compass Roofing arrived quickly to give an estimate, had a professional and reassuring attitude, talked through the cost, scope and durability of different repair options, was flexible with timing (I work unsocial hours) and reliable and responsible with access. They provided good documentation and photographs. Would recommend.

Compass roofing carried out a repair of my cast iron gutters and painting of all the gutters and drainpipes. I was very impressed with the job that was carried out, the quality of the work and the pleasant manner and proffessional attitude of all the staff. It was not an easy job at all as almost everything was done on a high ladder. I would have no hesitation in using Compass again.

Compass have just finished a major roof repair on my old stone cottage and I am absolutely delighted with the result. Having never had to have any major works done before on my home I was extremely nervous about finding a reputable company. I had absolutely nothing to worry about with Compass, Scott and Gary have managed the whole process with complete professionalism and made sure I was kept fully up to date with progress. Being an old property there were inevitably some hidden surprises but everything was discussed with me in full detail and I can’t thank them enough for ensuring the repair was sympathetic to the old buildings needs. The men on site were wonderful, so respectful and courteous to me and my neighbours and they made sure that the site was left tidy at the end of every day. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this firm, thank you to Scott, Gary and the rest of the team!

We just had half our roof replaced, we started with just changing the gutter and ended up changing nearly the whole roof. Our house is a 150 year old Georgian building and once you start you always see something more needing fixing. As the work progresses you see more and more needing done???? got to be done otherwise it would obviously cost us more in the future. We are so lucky to find a dedicated and honest company that really care about their job and their clients. Once started they were halfway way putting on the new roof and the team and Gary, the supervisor, noticed that the slate they were putting on was below standard. The team completely changed the slate standard because it will cause a problem later and not up to the acceptable standard required. Not the roofers fault they were supplied the wrong material, they didn’t know this either, see where I’m going in here, they could just left it because we wouldn’t know if it was the wrong material. This company and the whole team works really hard to give you the best service you could ask for. They work as a team and that’s very important for the best results. The roofers are very dedicated and communicative but without the supervision of Gary, always checking and always present to make sure that everything is ip to standard. Scott (the boss) take note, it’s hard to find good workers, look after them all and they will look after you. If there is ten out of ten I will give this company ten, oh and they are so tidy. Completely cleaned up after the job and the completed roof is an excellent job. ????

The roof and rainwater goods at our tenement block on Marchmont Road were in a poor state of repair culminating in some serious leaks in a number of the flats. The residents held a meeting and agreed to get quotes for work to bring the roof up to a good state of repair. In all, four Edinburgh roofing companies provided quotes based on a common specification. Compass Roofing provided the most competitive quote and were selected by us to carry out the work. All leadwork on the roof was removed and replaced with new lead and all missing tiles replaced. The rainwater goods were brought up to a good working order, replaced where necessary and repainted with three coats of paint. The Compass staff were polite and courteous and I found their foreman Gary Moir responsive, helpful and good to work with. I would recommend Compass to anyone looking for a roofer in Edinburgh.

We had a new insulated membrane roof installed together with some pointing work, guttering and a new cupola and skylight.

The work began quickly after agreeing the contract and Scott's team were polite, friendly and very happy to answer our questions as the work progressed and flexible about incorporating additional works we requested.

At one stage we were considering getting solar PV installed at the same time as the new roofing and Compass were very happy to work closely with the solar installers, though for planning reasons we didn't go ahead with that in the end.

The pricing turned out to be identical to a homer quote we got but Compass offered a guarantee and were able to do the other work like pointing and the cupola so we went with them. They took great care to protect our glass conservatory by covering it over with boards and cleaned up after themselves.

On the basis of our experience, I've no hesitation in recommending Compass if you want a single ply membrane flat roof done.

We had to replace our roof and Compass provided excellent service. Very professional and responsive. Would definitely recommend them.

We were extremely happy with the work completed by Compass Roofing Ltd. Job completed on time and builders hard working. Well organised and kept us up to date with progress. Job well done.

Excellent work and service from Scott and his team:
- new insulation and single ply membrane on top flat roof
- new slating, lead work, rones and in-roof solar pv panels on rear sloping roof
- old cupolas replaced with beautiful new sky lanterns in top roof
- new glazed attic exit hatch to roof
- two replacement chimney pots
High quality professional work using top quality materials, and Scott provided a lot of help in selecting the sky lanterns and the optimum installation for them.

My neighbour and I had chimney fixed in May.The work was done by three friendly workmen Dean Jordan and Gary, who did a good job worked very efficiently and cleaned up after job was finished.

Very impressed with how prompt, friendly and professional Compass Roofing were. They did a fantastic job and repaired our roof including basic mistakes made by another company just months earlier. The office staff were so efficient and friendly. The man who came to inspect the roof and provide and estimate was very thorough and professional, and then the roofers who came to carry out the work (just days after my initial phone call) were also friendly and thorough. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company or use them again in future if necessary. Thanks!!

I cannot recommend Compass Roofing highly enough. They provided services for a job that 2 other roofing companies had turned down because the access, and job, was complicated. They delivered a quality solution at a fair price, with a really helpful attitude. 5 star.

From my initial enquiry and receiving our quotation through to the final stage of works completed I found the team at Compass Roofing communicated all aspects of the process efficiently and clearly. I was impressed by the time taken to actively listen to our needs and requirements. I acted on behalf of a stair of 6 neighbours being both owners and council tenants and have lead the job from start to finish. Due to the amount of works required and the cost per household we had to be certain that we were all in agreement to use the service of Compass. After looking into Compass Roofing history of works and discussion with the team i felt confident that they were ideal to complete the works. Now the works have been completed the right decision was made and all parties happy.
