S Allison Building & Roofing

Stewart was great with his communication before and during the works. He showed up as agreed and has done an amazing repair to our roof and guttering. Exceptionally polite, honest, professional and nothing was a problem. The site was cleared in a manner never seen, they even swept the slated roof before finishing!

40 years in the trade shone through in this job, I would have no hesitation in using or recommending Stewart Allison Roofing and am delighted to leave this week deserved feedback.

We will see you again Stewart... although, hopefully not soon :-)

We had these guys out to take a look at an issue with our roof - they were open and honest about the fact that they couldn't help us out (turns out was a very specialist roof), gave great advice and pointed us in the direction of someone who might be able to! Would definitely recommend.

Over the years, Stuart has undertaken extensive roof repairs on our cottage, and following heavy rain causing a leak of water in the bathroom ceiling I noticed a couple of misplaced roof tiles. Although this might have appeared to be a small and insignificant job to many roofers, Stuart came the next day. He diagnosed tracking from a Velux window and promptly set about repairing the lower sill. He then went on to replacing some worn-out tiles and associated pointing.

This was clearly a bit of a bigger job than I initially suggested and relied on his skill and willingness to promptly respond. For the time and effort required, the repair was excellent value for money.

I shall certainly ask him for help in the future and recommend reliance on his services.

Callout for emergency repair following Storm Arwen - ridge tile insecure - arrived in less than 30 minutes. Subsequently repaired storm damage to roof. We have used Mr Allison several times and have always been satisfied with the quality of his work.

Stewart fixed the guttering on my upper villa flat. He has also replaced the cills on my bay window and fitted chimney caps.During the recent storm water came through a light in my kitchen.Stewart quickly responded to my text. He phoned the next morning and arranged a time to visit. Problem was promptly identified and missing tiles were replaced. Repair work was also carried out around chimney. Can't fault his service!

Have used Stewart several times. Good price, excellent work and always turns up when he says he will. Replaced a flat roof in February and reattached the bird house roof without being asked!

I was very happy with the work they carried out on my roof. Stewart was friendly and professional. He responded to my message quickly.I would recommend him and use him again.

We are grateful to Mr Allison for dealing with several problems we have had with our roof. He can be relied upon to attend as promised, and efficiently identify and solve any roofing problems.

Recently had two jobs completed by Stuart. Installation of dry verges to ends of house ( a bungalow) on the gable ends and cleaning ridges and repointing where required with colour mortar. Very pleased with the results. He had replied to my enquiry promptly and managed to fit me in between doing larger jobs. It was obvious that he had had many years of experience in doing this sort of work.
I would not hesitate to call him again for any roofing work.

Garden art studio roof required complete strip back and repair using suitable materials (which the original was not). Stewart suggested that instead of traditional felt a rubber roof material would be better and longer lasting, but slightly more expensive. We agreed on the rubber roof and he was able to do the job with the help of joiner. Both were good experienced workmen with the requisite knowledge and gave good advice. I would use them again for any roofing work.

Stuart provided an excellent service. He was quick to contact me when I enquired through trusted trader. He turned up when he said he would and kept us informed of progress at all times. Would definitely use him again and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

Chimney repointed and ridge tiles fixed as well as other work completed on roof. Stewart did an excellent job for us. He got back to me quickly after my initial call and communicated to me what work would be carried out and when. The quality of the work was to a high standard. I can thoroughly recommend S. Allison Building and Roofing and would use him again.

Response to my phone call was excellent as there was rainwater coming in through the chimney flashing! He arrived quickly and the quote was done immediately and repair work carried out a few days later. Other problems with loose ridge tiles sorted out as well. Very pleased to have Mr Allison doing the work. A very reassuring experienced roofer who was able to not only mend the roof but gave us advice about looking after a roof on a bungalow where moss is a problem. Fully recommend this trader for his knowledge and skills.

Stuart didn't supply the cheapest quote, nor the most expensive, but he seemed a genuine guy who knew his stuff. (I've used a 'cheap' roofer in the past [not Stuart, I may add] and was left with a bad patch-up job after I was told that more work was needed than originally quoted for.)
Stuart listened to what I was wanting done - to clear off the cement on both sides of a gable end replace with new in order to prevent water leaking into the house - then did it and did it well.
Stuart is easy to get on with and a hard worker and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I recommend Stewart very highly. He took our horrible, broken-down outhouses, waved his magic wand and turned them into a beautiful summer house, with a perfectly-tiled roof, shining white walls and French windows. He also fixed the gutters on our cottage, far better than I have ever managed to do. Stuart is a hard worker, fine craftsman, master builder, great company and man of integrity - and if you ask him nicely, he may bring his very smart and friendly dog along.

Quick to respond to enquiry. Work completed to high standard. Would highly recommend.

Our roof developed a leak, dripping rainwater onto a bedroom ceiling. Urgent action needed to stop damage developing into expensive repairs. Contacted Stuart on a Saturday and he promised to arrive later same day to perform an initial assessment. He arrived, took a look and promised to return following day to perform further investigation. This he did, detected the problem and carried out the work. A simple repair in the end, needing a new roof tile to replace a broken one not visible from ground level.

I was impressed with Stuart’s friendly, professional attitude and approach. At all times I felt I was in good hands. When Stuart promised to attend he kept his promise and communicated well. His charge for the work was fair. I would use Stuart’s services again without hesitation.

Repairs to slate roof, chimney capping repair and repair to rainwater guttering. All work requested has been completed within the originally estimated time and with only a minor cost overrun due to extra materials being needed. The job was done promptly, efficiently, with friendly enthusiasm. All areas of the work were cleaned up after completion. Very satisfied with the work and the way it was done, thank you. I will contact Stuart first when more work is required.

We had missing hip tiles replaced and Stewart also went to great lengths to source and replace wrong sized hip tiles which had been put in place previously. Also had chimney stacks covered with caps and spikes placed on chimney to prevent problematic seagulls from nesting.
Stewart was very efficient and timely with his quote and starting the work. Keeping myself informed of all the works being carried out. Would definitely recommend Stewart to others.

Emergency clear out of moss along edge of roof. Stuart came out on a Sunday morning to do the work. On time and did a swift job. Advice on future prevention of moss build up.
Do not hesitate to contact him!
