Report
We moved into a very well worn heritage property over winter, complete with characteristic roof damage and in urgent need of repairs. There were 2 holes with tiles missing, and old, ineffective guttering which needed to be replaced. We sought several quotes and nobody else came close to being as personable and informative as Karl. Karl is an honest, easy going gentleman with an eye for detail and a sincerity about his appraisals. He provided us with a quote brochure which explained everything in very thorough detail. At our request he looked at the chimney/brickwork, guttering, and tiling, we

I have used Karl Terry Roofing contractors three times in the last 10 years for jobs including a full re-roof and multiple repairs and have always found their work to be of the very highest quality. Their work was excellent but so was both their attention to detail and customer service. I would be very happy to recommend them and indeed have done so on several occasions too friends and family.

Karl Terry has completed 3 roofs for my crumbly but charming property over the last 10 years. I am just about to engage on another project with him as he has made such lovely work on all three works in Peg tiles, and Welsh Slate. His knowledge, fair pricing, after care and the skill from his cheerful team have always made him a consistent choice. Nothing is too much trouble as there is constant pride in their work
I heartily recommend Karl Terry for those who need good roofing and wish to feel secure under their roof for the future years.
