Eastern Roofing & Solar Installation Ltd

Total reroofing of listed 4 bed Victorian house with a mix of original and reclaimed slates.
Plus reroofing of large semicircular bay window finished off with complete lead covering.
The latter, a very complicated job which has been done well.

Eastern Roofing and Solar have carried out a number of Jobs for me and the quality of the work is always excellent.
Not only is the work excellent dealing with James is a pleasure.
James is one of only a very few people I would recommend. When I have recommended James I have always been thanked by the people as they have been very pleased with the work carried out.
It is difficult to find people who care about what they do and are good at what they do, Eastern Roofing and Solar do both.

We had the main roof completely re done and two broken tiles on the new extension replaced. Absolutely well pleased with the job. Would recommend them to others. Work was done in a good time and they cleared up well.

They were friendly and efficient workers who I have used twice. once for replacement of a large section of roof and the first time to solve a tricky leak problem that was not fixed by a previous roofer.

Excellent work , polite and trustworthy professionals. Happy to recommend.

Repairs to roofing including strengthening with new perlins, new felt and replacement of original tiles. Also fitting new soffits and guttering. Brilliant service and reasonable cost. Highly recommended.

James rebuilt and re-leaded 2 leaking roof valleys and a partial ridge rebuild to a high standard.

Tidy and reliable workmanship

Our experience with Eastern Roofing and Solar Installation was nothing short of excellent. They carried out the work to our new roof and guttering to the highest standards and were a pleasure to deal with throughout. Thoroughly recommend them and would use them again with hesitation. I would say they are the best building contractor we have ever used.

I had my roof re-felted and the work was done efficiently and quickly. They also put lagging in my loft which was in dire need. Altogether very friendly and helpful.

Complete replacement of our roof, guttering and painting of woodwork. Eastern Roofing and Solar Installation Ltd did a superb job, from initial advice to completion - their attention to detail is second to none and Jim, Jonny and Ben are very conscientious, hard working and could not have been more helpful - they answered any questions and were very reassuring, as this was a large financial commitment. On completion of the work they all have done an outstanding job and we highly recommend them.

Had complete roof strip timbers repaired extra insulation new membrane and tiles.Also retrimmed the roof lights and new lead flashing...excellent attention to detail and finish .The roofers were very helpful and easy to deal with..would highly recommend.

I have used this company on various projects, and have always been pleased with the standard of work , which is very good, and they are easy to talk about any issues

Eastern Roofing replaced the original slate roof on our Victorian school house and also fitted a new slate roof to our extension which was a perfect match with the original house. The work was the highest quality and to the agreed timescale and budget. Courteous and professional communication throughout and left the site clean and tidy. Would highly recommend.

Reroofing of an 1850's house. The quote was detailed and easy to understand. The scaffolders used were flexible around the lean to garage for access.

The work was great and Jim took time to walk me round the walkway to check out the work as it progressed. Gave options on replacement ridge tiles and also did some painting for me while up there.

Solar panels washed and replaced and reconnected with no fuss and then officially recommissioned by subcontracted electrician

Recommended highly.

Very professional from the outset, precise survey showing intensive knowledge of my requirements, very clean job excellent slate designs exceeding my expectations. Class job from a true tradesman

Our whole house was reroofed by Jim and his team. The care and attention they put into saving the original pin tiles, repairing woodwork, felting and then retiling was amazing. They took a lot of time ensuring the details were right so the job both fixed the leaks, worked structurally and was aesthetically as beautiful as possible. This included sourcing reclaimed tiles to match. Real quality craftsmanship. Great communication throughout both on decisions and timelines. Always polite and tidy, wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

This was a clean up following storm damage. The insurance company were being rubbish and very slow. James made us watertight then sorted everything from the roofing to the solar panels. He even went the extra mile to sort the interior, provide bird netting to get the job sorted properly.
James was unbelievably patient because we were dealing with insurance etc, sending multiple quotes to meet their needs.. I would happily use him again but hope I don't have to... 😀

Complete re roof excellent job with expert advice and proper job done for our lifetime 👍🏼

New felting to all of the roof.
Refit original black tiles to the front of property.
New pan tiles to the rear roof.
Fit leading to parapet walls and leadwork to chimney.
Removal and then refit solar panels and electrical re instatement.
Fit new velux flashing kits.


We required a new roof as the old one was leaking and had numerous other issues. We had quotes from several companies but each time the same problem arose in that they were not experienced in removing and refitting our solar panels. It also proved difficult to find a seperate company to deal with the panels most only want to fit new panels. Then a solar company recomended trying Eastern Roofing and life became simple. Jim came promptly and discussed the work the roof required, he was able to deal with removing and refitting the panels no problem and getting the electrician to reinstate and check the system. Our property is on a neighbours boundary so we needed to coordinate access with our neighbour and he was respectful of the need to work with this in mind.
The quote was very detailed including all that is considered best practice. I cannot praise the team enough who worked on our roof they were quiet, efficent, very tidy and completed the work in very good time leaving everything clear and clean. We have a very old property and any problems that arose or were identified as the work was done were easily dealt with after discussion.
I cannot recomend this company highly enough.

Replaced a single storey tiled pitched roof and repaired a leak where the roof joined another part of the building (which 2 other firms had unsuccessfully tried to remedy). Eastern roofing were friendly and easy to deal with. They did a very good job sorting out a difficult to deal with leak and replacing a roof. They worked tidily and stuck to the quoted price, I would have no hesitation in using them again in the future.
