Had work done by the company a few years ago and have had no problems with it. Called them again when leak in roof noticed. Came and inspected roof, wasn’t urgent but came a few weeks later and completed the job. Detailed report given of work required and a fair price quoted. Good communication throughout and very pleasant workmen. Would recommend.

I only got two quotes before choosing EQB for my roof repair, they were head and shoulders above the other company in every way and made the whole process simultaneously personal yet professional. Great service and work.

Communal repair to roof in tenement - good communication, realistic quotation and work carried out satisfactorily to schedule - would recommend that and now ask EQB to look after my own slate roof.

EQB provided a first class service repairing our flat roof which suffered from poor accessibility issues from start to finish. Excellent attention to detail, great workmanship and no additional costs. EQB kept the site clean and tidy at all times. It was a pleasure to work with EQB.

Unblocked downpipe and removed a small tree that had started to grow on another downpipe. All this was done on the morning after my phone call and at very reasonable cost. I hope to use this company for further external pipe work and would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roofer.

We needed a high repair carried out to a downpipe at the rear of our property which has very restricted access. Richard responded very quickly to my initial enquiry through Trusted Trader and was very determined to find a solution to the access problem which he did. Richard and his team carried out the repair work quickly and efficiently at a reasonable cost and I have no hesitation in recommending them for this type of work and giving them a 5 star review.

I have worked with Edinburgh Quality Builders for many years. They have undertaken various works from all slate repairs to more complex re pinning of a gable walls, fallowing storm damage . I have always found them to be knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend them to carry out all aspects of building maintenance .

We have used this firm over the last few years for general roofwork and painting of downpipes/gutters and have always found them to be easy to deal with, reliable and efficient.

I have been using EQB for routine roof maintenance and annual checkups for 8 years. During that time I have found them very reliable. They answer emails quickly, and turn up on time. Nowadays I just get in touch and ask them to come and check out and maintain the roof without me even having to be in.
Naturally, I don't go up on the roof and look at what they have done, but I trust them to do a good job.

We were very happy with the immediate response regarding a leak in our roof. The communication with the office was great and the leak was tackled swiftly and repaired very well, so we did not have to worry before going away in the autumn holidays.
Thank you very much!

I was very pleased with EQB. Professional, thorough & very reliable. Nuanced advice re roof defects. Quick, clear communication (even in an exceptionally busy period for them). Queries & modifications to their Quotation Report, after their visit, were easily & quickly dealt with by email. It was a pleasure using EQB. Strongly recommended.

EQB dealt expertly with a long standing leak in the roof of a Victorian Edinburgh house that had previously been missed and kept returning to spoil paint and plasterwork. In addition, the freak storm rains of August 11 had found another ingress for rainwater that damaged a ceiling. EQB diagnosed and fixed the problem here,too.
Prompt, responsive and professional, they also, reassuringly, provided photos both of the problems they identified and the repairs they carried out.

Excellent: can't recommend them highly enough: EQB put a new roof on the mansion block, where we have a top floor flat. A leaky chimney was also repaired and loose slats replaced. We had a very reasonable quote - not an estimate - and a 20 year manufacturer's guarantee. Richard was happy to answer dozens of questions about the job, he always called back the same day if anyone left a message. The work was done on time and we now have a fabulous new roof for the approaching winter. No stresses or strains, just 15 satisfied flat owners.

Richard and his team were excellent.
We had an issue with our roof which was leaking to the floor below.
Richard and his team accessed the issue and provided us with a quote. After that they came over and took care of everything. Very meticulous and tidy, they completed the job in two days just before Christmas.
Would definitely recommend

We tried for years to sort our leaky rooftop terrace. The only options found were untenable based on time, cost and the level of disruption. EQB Roofing came up with a solution that was relatively quick to install, without disruption to the business, looks much better than what we had before and comes with a 30 year guarantee, contributing to its cost-effectiveness. This was 18 months ago and we are delighted with it. Since then they have solved a number of other building issues, the latest being a leak that once investigated, exposed rotten joists that needed urgent attention with the introduction of steel supports. In little over a week from first discovering this, the work was complete. Over the last 18 months they have proved repeatedly that they are not only excellent builders and roofers, but are problem-solvers who can think outside the box. They have also backed up their ideas with work that is completed in a timely manner, fitting in with the considerable needs of our business. They are also very pleasant to deal with.

Work done: patching up and re-pointing of roof ridges.
The work ended up taking four days, which was longer than expected, though admittedly this was partly caused by bad weather. In any case, I am happy with the standard of the work and the professional manner in which it was carried out.
