J&D Roofing & Building Services Ltd

As always - John’s team were excellent. Very responsive. General overhaul of roof after all the storms. Found and replaced over 30 slates - and provided some good feedback for other work we need to think about.

John and his team were absolutely great. We had been left in a really horrible situation by another roofing contractor and John literally came to our rescue. He was fair with the cost considering the speed at which we needed the job started and the quality of the end product.

The finish is excellent and he caught a few additional items that other trades hadn't completed, which kept the work moving and took some of the stress away. The team in general really battled through, even when the weather wasn't the best. We really appreciated the effort that was put in to get us water tight.

I would highly recommend J&D roofing and my only regret was not using them in the very first place.

John and his team were thoroughly reliable. It was less than a week between him estimating for the job to repair a damaged chimney and completion. Delighted with the job done. Would recommend and use again.

Guys did a great job. Very quick and efficient. Would recommend to anyone.

John and his team were helpful, friendly, tidy, respectful of our property and turned up when expected. Couldn’t ask for more.

The works were staged due to weather conditions. At all stages everything was left wind and watertight.
Arrived when they said they would.
Good communications, good technical skills, tidy, workman like and professional approach.

John and team are excellent. John took time and care in evaluating the problem with our roof and gave us pragmatic and proportionate advice. The work was done with his skilled and friendly team and John was on hand throughout to support us with explaining everything. Thank you! I would highly recommend this business especially for sensitive historic buildings.

We had a completely new roof laid on a very old farmhouse. It wasn't a straightforward job, but John and his team did a fantastic job. The roof looks amazing now, and they were a great crew to have around. They were tidy, courteous, good humoured and ensured that all the little elements were done properly at the end. The team was hardworking at all times, with John going in front as a leader, happily picking up some of the less satisfying tasks. We would recommend these roofers to anyone!

Following recent storm I contacted J&D to see if someone could come to remove overhanging roof tiles as they were in a dangerous position. They came out within a couple of hours and removed them (Even although it was still a bit windy) I also received an estimate for the repair works required the following day.

I would highly recommend J&D Roofing they are first class.

Needed a roof tile fixed and gutters cleaned. John got in touch to make arrangements and his team were out on the job the following morning. Professional work, well explained, done in a friendly manner. Would definitely recommend.

I was very satisfied with the work to replace a tiled garage roof and to a section of the house roof in Tyninghame. John came round to see the damage and I received his estimate within a week. Both jobs were well done and the workmen were pleasant, knowledgeable and tidy. I will recommend the firm in the future.

The quality of the work is very high, and the finish is great.
We are delighted with the finished window.

I had a leak in the roof of my house. I contacted J&D after unsuccessfully trying to get the services of two other traders. I was really pleased when the first guy came round on the day to look at the damage. Not only that but he sent a couple of lads round to do the work in the afternoon, so everything was completed on the day. I am very happy with the work done.

Brilliant Job done . Very happy with work carried out by skilled and pleasant people.

Two men cleaned out the gutters at my mother's property. A difficult part was the gutter in a V between the bungalow roof and a glass conservatory which was done with no damage.

J&D Roofing have recently replaced our roof (including two smaller extensions) along with UPC downpipes, gutters, etc. and we couldn't be happier with the work that John and his team have done. They are a hard working and conscientious team who work to a very high standard. We definitely recommend J&D Roofing and will be asking them to do annual roof checks going forward to keep it in tip top condition. Looking forward to a winter where we don't have to panic every time it rains!

I have used J & D Roofing & Building Services on a number of occasions now and have been very happy with their work. They are very professional and provide a very high standard of work. I would have no hesitation using them again and would highly recommend them.

Excellent work as usual.

Replace existing roof with new sarking, membrane and tiles. Excellent service from John and his team, from the itemised estimate within 24hrs to the invoice which matched the estimate with no hidden surprises. Very friendly and efficient team who completed the job in 4 days during which temperatures reached 30 degrees. They turned up on time and worked all day every day and once work was completed they left the site as they found removing all rubbish, sweeping and hosing the paths. Delighted with the quality of work and finish.

John and his team did a great job repairing and replacing some ridge tiles and roof tiles that had come off during the winter storms. They worked away while I was at work and when I got home the roof looked great and there was no mess or any other evidence that there had been workmen there. Would definitely recommend.

We needed repairs to our roof following storm damage earlier this year. John and his team have provided excellent service. John replied quickly to my initial contact, completed a full assessment of the roof and identified issues we weren't aware of. The work was scheduled in quickly and his team completed the job with minimum disruption. John was recommended to us by a neighbour and we highly recommend him also.

Renew entire flat roof. Excellent work carried out efficiently. Cleaned up site well.
However, there was quite a delay between agreeing the job and getting started. Emergency work following 2022 storm damage in East Lothian was largely responsible for the delay.

Once again, John and his team did an excellent job. This time they did some work on some outbuildings - including complete re-roof. Whole team of up to 5 at a time, worked hard and produced high quality work that I am sure will see us good for many many years to come. Great communication - turned up as expected - left site clean and tidy. Good advice given throughout.

Replacement pitched roof for small house in Eyemouth.
John was very communicative throughout the whole process. He kept me informed of start dates and costs and his team started exactly on time. The whole job was finished much quicker than I expected and appears to have been done to a very high standard.
I have spoken to two sets of neighbours who were both very complimentary of how professional and helpful they were throughout.
Costs were about average for the quotes we obtained.
Highly recommended and would definitely go straight to John in the future.

Large roofing job carried out quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend.

They also cleaned up really well afterwards. We were very impressed and we would be very happy to recommend to others and we would use them again without hesitation.

Flat roof replaced after storm damage and ridge tiles refixed. John responded quickly to my call, provided written list of work to be done and estimate, and kept me informed on next steps. Excellent, friendly service and team work. Well done!

So I will always choose J&D Roofing and Building Services for any roof related work and i thoroughly recommend them to others

I could not recommend these guys highly enough. They were absolutely fantastic.
They made time to fit in our job, and carried it out quickly and efficiently. They were also extremely reasonably priced. Whats more they were just lovely guys!

Thanks very much to John and the team.

I might have given them scores of 5 if the workers had been wearing hard hats (especially when manipulating scaffolding).

Replaced felt on double garage roof.
Quote given promptly which was accepted by insurance company .
Work carried out to a high standard within an acceptable timeframe for the price quoted .

Delighted to have John and Jonnie at our home for yet another great job.
Flat roof this time. Looks great and good advice about material to comply with warrant.

Our roof was very badly damaged in Storm Arwen, with loose felt flapping dangerously. John attended the day after (Saturday) to make it safe even though he was really busy with other call outs. He then provided photos and a quote quickly for insurance purposes and carried out the repairs very quickly following approval. Despite quite a few issues with the roof, the team carried out a difficult repair very professionally, always keeping us abreast of the issues they were facing and clearing all the debris from the site. I have had quite a few roofers in the past, John’s work seems to be better quality and good value. He always did what he said he would, which is a good start!

Remedial work after Storm Arwen. Fascia to rear slope of roof removed; new timber batten, PVC fascia board and verge fitted (with all fixings and fittings). The work was well organised and done in good time. We have no reason to believe it was not completed to a very high standard (we were away at the time, but our neighbours were very impressed with the workmanship). My thanks for removing all the associated debris from the site and for a very good job done.

The J&D team carried out extensive repairs to our clubhouse roof and solved a problem that has plagued us for many years. The standard of work was first class, the guys carried out additional work and still came in well below the original estimate.

I would recommend them without any hesitation.

Excellent.

This company was recommended to us. They turned up when they said they would and completed repair to broken gutttering very quickly. They were very friendly and and polite. The cost was extremely reasonable. Would recommend this company and use them again.

The flat roof areas of the house extension, garage and porch were all renewed using traditional felt. Job completed in 2 days as the team worked continuously with mininimum breaks. They were friendly, the finish looks good and all mess was cleared away.

Job well done amd I was pleased to be able to use a local firm.

My elderly Mother had water leaking into a bedroom and it appeared to be due to a problem with her roof.
Emailed J & D Roofing at 10pm and was contacted at 9.30am the following morning. Roofers arrived 30 minutes later. After searching roof and attic the hole was found and promptly repaired.

Various roof repairs - all done thoroughly and efficiently by experienced tradesmen who clearly take a great deal of pride in their work.

John estimated for the work quickly after his visit and we were fortunate that he gave the job priority as our roof was leaking badly. A faulty zinc watergate was replaced with lead which gives a much neater appearance, better functionality and longevity. The team did a great job and left everything neat and tidy. I would certainly recommend this company and would use them for future work.

Would definitely use them again.

When I noticed on a Sunday that a water was getting in through the roof of my bay window, I contacted J&D Roofing through their website. They phoned me first thing on Monday morning and sent a man out to inspect the site within 90 minutes. He applied a temporary fix and a week later the work was completed.
This is a friendly, reliable firm, with good customer service. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

The job included removal of weeds from roof, taking off coping stones and re cementing and renewing cement skews which required scaffolding to be put up for access.
Very content with the way the job was done, efficient and professional service from J&D Roofing- I would happily recommend them and would use again.

Our roof was badly in need of attention and J&D Roofing stepped up. They stripped the coverings from the front elevation roof and dormer window and renewed including new flashings, cement skews etc. The tradesmen were very proficient, very good timekeepers, courteous and tidied up everything on completion. Several neighbours have already made positive comment regarding the works. We are delighted with the outcome and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this company if asked.

I had a rainwater leak through a dormer roof. Following contact, John attended within a couple of days carried out a thorough survey of the rear roof of my cottage, finding a number of broken and displaced slates and a broken cement skew at the base of a chimney. I received a prompt and reasonable quote for the repair work which was undertaken three weeks later. Johnny and his colleague did a thorough job,explained what had been found and dealt with and checked that I was happy with the work. All debris was removed and watergates and gutters cleaned. I would certainly use them again.

They examined roof round tall chimney - located the faulty area - - the ceiling had fallen down on the landing below. - a lath and plaster ceiling. Workers went up and properly examined and made safe the roof and sealed the leaking area extremely well.. Quick, efficient and very thorough and pleasant.

Attended promptly when I became aware of damage to dry verge caused by high winds. Became apparent that underlying problem was poor quality work carried out by a DIFFERENT company a few years ago (who had falsely claimed to be a Trusted Trader) As I have used J & D roofing on several occasions since, and been very happy with their work, I took advice to have all the dry verge replaced, which they did promptly.

Garage roof recovered.
Quick response to request for estimate then offered a date to do the work within one week. Removal of old felt revealed that some woodwork needed replacement. This was done and the job completed within a day. Standard of work looks good and site left clean and tidy.

Really happy with the work J&D did repairing a leak in our roof in Gullane. Prompt, thorough, and great value.

We also took the step of recommending them to an elderly friend who had some problems with leaky roof and overflowing drains - she asked us to pass on her thoughts because she was thrilled with their work, their concern for her (especially during Covid) and their attention to detail. She will use them again, as will we.

We would absolutely recommend J&D to others - especially anyone a little hesitant about asking for quotes and worried about being taken advantage of. This is a company who we would recommend both for their excellent work and their great customer service, and we are still giving out their contact details to friends.

Excellent service, good workmen, I have used them before and would recommend them.

Cutting a long story short, I called John out when plumbers sent by my insurers twice failed to find the source of a water coming in through my wall and ceiling and said the problem was the roof. It took John just a few minutes to find a leaking heating pipe and no evidence of water coming through the roof.

I reported this back to the plumbers, who out came out a third time and still insisted there were no pipes in my attic just cables and that this was a roof issue. I then phoned John who spoke to the disbelieving plumber and quickly came out a second time to confirm.

The upshot is that a different plumber quickly fixed the pipe by which time had been leaking for over three weeks. Thank you very much indeed.

The owner (John) did not attend but clearly has a competent team working for him.

Have used previously and will continue to do so.

J&D carried out some repairs to my tiled roof and guttering. The work was carried out quickly and the team were very clear about the issues they found and the work carried out.

The company visited 24 hours after contact. What I thought was a split gutter turned out to be just a blockage, saving a lot of money. Instead of estimating and returning, the company did the work on the spot, cleaned up and advised on maintenance. Efficient and courteous.

John and his team responded very quickly to my call regarding a leak in my roof. The work was done that afternoon. Will definitely recommend and use this company again.

In the past we have been stung by roofers who let their profession down so it is very reassuring to have our roofing issues handled by J&D Roofing. We give them top marks and have no hesitation in recommending their services.
