    David came over and inspected our dilapidated flat roof very quickly, and gave us a detailed quote within 24 hours. He was able to book us in quickly, and organised the scaffolding straight away. He and Patrick turned up nice and early and worked quickly through the day to get the whole job done, with no mess and no fuss.


    They take real pride in their work and did a proper professional job, with no hidden costs, and a 10 year guarantee. The roof now looks great, so a strong recommendation from me too.


    David has done several roofing jobs for me over the last several years, most recently coming to sort out a guttering problem during the heavy rain. After doing that he was happy to wait awhile to discuss a damp wall issue with me ... and today turned up (as he always does) and sorted the problem having explained what he was going to do. Always good to see him. Reliable, friendly and very hard-working! Would recommend David & Norwood Roofing Specialists unreservedly.

    Another recommendation for David and Patrick. Despite being the busiest roofer in SE London, I contacted David yesterday as our gutters were overflowing with the heavy rain - he responded straightaway and he and Patrica arrived super early and it's all done. They are a fantastic team, we have used them for all our roof work for a good 5 years now - wouldn't work with anyone else and I can't recommend him highly enough. Thanks again David and Patrick.

    I used David after personal recommendations and he didn?t and continues to not disappoint. I brought a flat where inadequate roof work was covered up, after moving in I encountered major leaks in the Chimney area and bathroom roof. in time of need and with a lack of access, David was round on the day. He recognised immediately the problems with the roof and was back within days to complete the work. All with before and after photos and a guarantee.


    The roof has been watertight since including in some torrential rain storms and I wouldn?t hesitate to recommend David and will be using him for all future jobs.


    Have used Dave and his team for 3 jobs in the past few years, including one major one (renewal of a flat roof on a loft conversion), and been very happy with their work. No problems with any of it so far (the oldest job was some repair work to the lead flashing on the roof parapets - this is a well known weak point for water penetration with Victorian terraces and had to be completely redone when we first bought our house, but it's been fine since the repair). They are always very quick to respond and their quotes are reasonable. As with the previous reviewer (jlc19 on 5.7), I was a bit surprised at the review on 4.7 - all I can say is that this hasn't been our experience at all and I am confident that if we did have a problem, we could have a sensible discussion with them about it. Also, on questions like whether it's the guttering or the roof itself, the latest job Dave has done for us turned out to be a problem with both - the roofing felt needed renewing on a section of roof at the back of our house (as water was getting into the ceiling of the back bedroom), but when the tiles were lifted it was clear that the problem had been made worse by the gutter/downpipe arrangement from our loft conversion, so we agreed that Dave and Pat would change that as well.

    I am incredibly surprised by the last review. I have used David and his team for several years for various roofing and guttering matters and they have been most pleasant to deal with .. in fact they go out of their way to get things sorted by coming out of hours when they say that they will and their rates are most reasonable. None of the team have ever been aggressive or unwilling to engage on any occasion. They are most professional in attitude. They have never been pushy either and have always talked through options.

    I first used them when another trader on this forum came to quote and stated that I needed a new roof for ?20K! David then came around to quote and was horrified by 1) the quote 2) that the trader had only given me that option. David and his team are my go to professionals and I have happily recommended them to my family and friends.

    I am happy for people to IM me privately if they want further information.


    I highly recommend David and his team for all roofing and guttering issues. After last week's heavy rain, my guttering was completely blocked and rain splashing all down the side of the house. I have used David previously for roofing matters so called him yesterday (Sunday) to see if he could come this week to resolve the issue. In fact he called back within 5 mins and had arranged to come over within 30 mins. On a Sunday! He then unblocked the guttering, washed down my roof and checked the grids to make sure I would have no issues. He always cleans up after himself and is highly respectful of my property.


    We discussed redirecting my guttering as it was clear to me that the current structure was not fit for purpose. He gave me a few options and we decided on one. Again I was prepared to wait, however he then returned first thing this morning before his other job had started to get it done, despite the drizzle. I now have a great solution and this is due to David.


    I have no hesitation in recommending David of Norwood Roofing solutions and in fact have done so many times to family in the area. I like the fact that I can pay him via direct banking ie no trips to the ATM and I always get an invoice. His rates are reasonable and I like the fact that he takes time to explain. For roofing matters, you get before and after mobile pictures.


    His mobile is 07412 000214 and his website is https://norwoodroofing.co.uk/.


    I would definitely recommend Norwood Roofing.


    I emailed David on a Friday afternoon and he called me back within about 15 minutes and within the hour he was making his way up unto our to inspect our fibreglass roof.


    The following Wednesday the scaffolding went up and the work was completed on the Thursday / Friday just in time for this lovely bank holiday rain we?re experiencing.


    On the Sunday morning over the bank holiday, I realised that the missing slate on our extension hadn?t been replaced as we had spoken about. I dropped David a message and literally an hour later and beyond the call of duty, he turned up and replaced the missing slate.


    Relieved to have the roof watertight and David and the team did a great job. Don?t hesitate to give them a call.


    Dave at Norwood Roofing has just relaid our flat roof covering which was old and leaking. I was impressed by the communication (another roofer on this forum didn?t bother to text me back.) Dave came round the next day, arranged scaffolding for two days after that and the job was completed the following day. The work took one day, undertaken by Patrick but Dave was there in the morning and evening to oversee. They also regrouted/cemented/ made watertight my chimney pots (I learned a new word too ?flaunching?). Efficient, quick. Photos supplied by Dave pre and post look good to me. No leaks even in all this rain and snow. Cost ?3,300 (including scaffolding) which feels money well spent to get things watertight.


    I see an earlier person has mentioned Dave wanting to be paid quickly - he did expect half to be paid upfront (fair enough) and did specify (which I agreed to) to pay ?the rest on completion?. I was a bit surprised that he actually meant immediately - as in within the hour of completing the work. So probably worth being ready to pay the balance that quickly.


    I would recommend Dave and team & Id be very happy to use them again.


    Norwood Roofing Specialists are excellent. I called David just before Christmas because our roof was leaking. Within 1 day he had arranged for scaffolding to be put up, and within 2 days the previous supposedly waterproof paint was removed and an underfelt and charcoal cap-sheet torched down using gas burners.

    They were quick, efficient and highly professional and the price was fair. A day later it was bucketing down and not a drop of water came through. I would highly recommend Norwood Roofing specialists.


    So happy with the work done by Norwood. They fixed a leaking flat roof at short notice but did a great job and also took the time to answer questions. We've now booked them back to do some work to the side of our property and I can't speak highly enough of them. David is most definitely on it in terms of getting to you, quoting and getting the job done right.

    David and Patrick did a fantastic job for me last week. I had leak in my glass roof over the side return extension and texted David on the basis of these recommendations. He came round the same day to check it out and then returned the following morning to fix it (there was a fair amount of me texting him pictures in between as it was getting a lot worse with the heavy rain, and him checking in with a glazier who wanted to charge a call-out fee with no guarantee of actually fixing it!).


    The result was that David and Patrick figured out that it was a fairly easy fix in the end and didn't actually charge me! By that stage I had already secured them to re-point my chimney and clear my guttering, both of which had been worrying me as we're about to move into winter. The work was all completed within the week to a really high standard.


    It's pretty rare to find someone who is so efficient and goes out of their way to help, very much appreciated! I've already been recommending David to friends in the area and he definitely deserves all of the great reviews on here.


    Another glowing recommendation for David (and Patrick). After last week?s heavy rain, I noticed a damp patch on the wall of our loft extension. I texted David on a Sunday to arrange for him to have a look-see to try to identify the cause of the problem. He happened to be in the area and so asked if it would be OK to pop across that morning. On a Sunday! That?s service.


    Having surveyed the roof and having taken lots of photos, he broke the bad news that the felting in our flat roof was beginning to show signs of deterioration and would need replacing. To cut a long story short, we agreed that my partner and I agreed that the work needed doing and so by Wednesday the scaffolding had arrived and Friday morning, 7:45am Patrick was up on the roof starting work. By around 3:00 on the Friday the job was completed to an exceptionally high standard.


    Thanks again David and Patrick. Excellent work yet again and so easy to see why you get the great reviews!


    Very best...


    David has just finished his second project on our house, replacing soffits, fitting new guttering and updating coping stones on our flat roof. All his work has been done to the highest standard, he's very professional to deal with and the work happens on time and to budget with a 10 year guarantee. In common with other users I'd highly recommend him and we'd definitely use him again should we need more work done in the future.
