I contacted Taylor Roofs to undertake a survey of my roof to see if they could proved a solution to the condensation problems in my loft. The survey was carried out in a very timely manner and a solution was quickly identified (installation of vents). I was given a realistic timescale as to when the work would likely commence and the time it would take to complete (both of which turned out to be pretty accurate). The roofers who carried out the work (Craig, Dylan and Reece) were very efficient and did an excellent job - many thanks guys. I would highly recommend Taylor Roofs as throughout the whole process they provided a friendly, efficient and professional service. Keep up the good work!

There was a leak below the solar panels installed on the roof of my property. It took a while to find a company that has experience with solar panels and can fix the problem in the roof. The company surveyed it and provided a quote. They then informed that the waiting period was about 12 weeks. We agreed a date and they came to fix it. The job was done expertly and the roof is intact (I believe). The staff were friendly and the work neatly done.

Some tiles needed replacing on our roof. They arrived on time and completed the job within the time specified. The work at this point in time appears to be satisfactory.

From first contact to completion of job, I found Taylor Roofs to be very satisfying. The work was undertaken on schedule - driveway left tidy. Would recommend Taylor Roofs without hesitation.

Had a new flat roof fitted by Taylor Roofing. Due to weather, etc quite a long time between deposit payment and original given start time, although the team then arrived 2 weeks early which was great. Robert and his co-worker (sorry, I have forgotten his name) were very friendly and seemed very happy in their work. They pushed to get the job completed, working late on the Friday evening and even though it was getting dark, still left everything very tidy and clean. Final price was reduced to take account of materials not used. Would recommend to others.

I used Taylor Roofs for building a warm roof on a garage conversion (to a garden room), and new roughcasting on side wall. I'm satisfied with the whole process. Quote was prompt and competitive. Work was done to a high standard. My only complaint is that there was very little time between some of the work being scheduled and carried out (ie less than one day), meaning it was difficult to warn my neighbour as he had to move his car.

Engaged with Taylor Roofs to have 4 hips replaced on my roof. Found them expensive but went ahead as they came across well. The experience was not as expected. The hips were all out of alignment and they had to refit after I complained. The membrain barrier was not fitted properly and they had to reapply, again I had to push them on this. They also started flying a drone around my house without my permission taking photos, again I had to complain and stop them from doing this. I hate to think what kind of a mess there would have been was I not on top of the job.The job was to be signed off by a supervisor, he came out said he went up to inspect the job, and that he was happy with it. I asked how he got up the scaffolding and he said he climbed up it; so much for Health and Safety. After he left I checked my security cameras, and he did not go up at all, he just took pictures from ground level. I emailed the owner asking him to come and see me as I was unhappy with the job, he refused saying he does not see customer. It has now been 6 weeks since the job was completed, I do not think it is a very good job and still have 4 more hips to do and will be asking another firm to complete this work. I was promised my guarantee a week after completion, I called them and they said it was forth coming and I have still not received this over 6 weeks later

I know you had complained about how some of the hips were sitting and that some of the tape wasn’t stuck down properly at that time but adjustments were made and the tape was sealed when it was dry enough to do so. The job wasn’t fully complete when you raised these issues. The hip system is wind and water tight and will give a long term peace of mind. As I explained on our in depth phone call that when retrofitting these systems to older properties then they don’t always sit as flush as they might on a new build property for example but the benefits of not having mortar on the roof in Scotland probably outweigh the sometimes little cosmetic flaws that can arise. With a profiled tile it is also common for there to be little kicks here and there. I did agree that we could have maybe better explained how it would look and what you should expect to better manage your expectations so we take that feedback on board.
As for the drone, we can only apologise for not making prior arrangements and asking if this was ok to do so, Liam our videographer had wrongly assumed that it would have been ok to get some shots of your roof as we had already been asked to carry out a roof survey and had before and after pictures as part of our process of doing the job. When Liam spoke to you, he said it was fine to not film anything but you said he could as long as it wasn’t obvious it was your house or had your number in it but he just left it as to respect your wishes. We have since put in a form to get agreement from customers before taking any footage of their roof/home. We were actually going to do a step by step video of the process of carrying the job out, I’m sure this shows that we do things right at taylor roofs and would have meant the finished job was as best as it possibly could be the same as we strive for on all our jobs. Again though sorry for not asking permission for this.
The job has already been signed off by one of our Contracts Managers, and I believe another was sent back to answer some questions that you had after that visit. In relation to him telling you he had been on your roof and you saying he definitely hadn’t been, this is something I will investigate.
I can look in to this but the job was signed off on the roof and it is covered by a 10 year guarantee if you were to have any water ingress or have anything blow off.
Our admin team sent your guarantee out to you by post at the time you requested this. I have asked my team to resend this today, as this is the first time we have heard about it not arriving.
With regards to your comment of me not coming out to see customers, that is correct, we have approx 1700 annual customers where our team take the calls, book in a survey, send out our estimators who send a quote which is then accepted and works are over seen by our contracts management team, there is a general manager above them and it doesn’t make sense for me to get involved in a job that I have had nothing to do with. Thankfully you seemed to be happy and got to a resolution with one of our contracts managers, my brother Daniel, and came in and paid your bill in full, so I did assume you were happy but deeply sorry to see this 2 star review and that you are not happy. We did feel we could do everything in our control to make you as happy as we could and we did carry out extra tile repairs and clearing of gutters when on site for you and did everything you asked us throughout the works. I’m sorry we won’t be doing the other works on your roof for you but I’ll make sure your guarantee is sent across for the works that were carried out by us and you know where we are if you need us for anything.
