I’d ignored the fact that my roof really needed doing, a Victorian terrace and I had loose/missing slates, leaky guttering and a dodgy chimney! On a Thursday morning I was woken by scaffolding going up on the adjoining house, they were getting a new roof! I spoke with Nelson from Direct Roofing Developments on the Thursday, got a quote for him to do my roof as well, my guttering and the chimney and said yes, go ahead. Scaffolding erected on my house on Friday. Work on my roof and the neighbour’s roof started on the following Monday and it was all completed by Saturday. Nelson kept me updated every day on progress and shared videos of what was being done. I’m a very happy customer and would recommend Direct Roofing Developments.

Each of our skilled experts have gone through a rigorous qualification process where only 5% are accepted.

We've checked all experts pricing are within industry standards so you never have to worry about over paying for your job.

It typically takes no longer than 48 hours for an expert to come out and see you.

Should the expert not live up to your standards, let us know and we'll step in to make sure things get sorted.

We are responsive, 100% human and always go the extra mile for you. Just ping us a message whenever you need us.

All experts have a minimum of £2 Million Property insurance so you are fully protected in the event of an accident.

If you are not happy, we will work closely with you and your expert to make things right.
The simple answer is no. They only charge for work carried out.
Nelson and his team will come round and have a look at the work you need doing and if they cannot fix the work you will not be charged. They will give you a price and it is entirely up to you if you wish to use them going forward. There’s no obligation of any kind. It’s just the best way for them to see the work you wish to have done and give you an accurate price.
Yes. Nelson and his team have been fixing and repairing roofs for over many years. Nelson has a huge amount of knowledge and experience dealing with pretty much any roofing issue so you can rest assured you can ask him anything and he’ll be able to help.
No matter if it is a simple job of replacing some broken tiles or a more complex job like a roof extension. Nelson will be able to advise you on the best option to take to make sure your roof is constructed properly and to regulation.
Typically Nelson and his team try to see you within 24 hours. Often if you call in the morning they can come round as soon as that evening. It just depends on the time and day you call. If you have an emergency they can prioritise and see you quicker.
If you request for them to come round to quote the work you require doing, it does not obligate you to use them in any way.
They simply offer this as a free service to introduce themselves, give you a pin point estimate and let their expertise and price speak for themselves.
