Jason was friendly, professional, and quick to respond to a problem of water ingress through our roof of our 1930s bungalow. As part of the survey visit he cleared debris that was clogging both the gulleys and gutters on our roof, without any charge. He was friendly, courteous and explained everything he was doing. I would not hesitate to use Jason and GW & JS again in future, and would wholeheartedly recommend his services.

Removed chimney to roof level and re-slated where it previously was. Replaced multiple sections of cast iron and plastic guttering.
Excellent service. Work was agreed and carried out a few weeks later at a time which suited me. All the team were extremely friendly and helpful. Very happy with the work. Would recommend and would use again if need arises.

I greatly appreciated a prompt response to a small roof leak. This was expertly evaluated and repaired. I have been very happy with several jobs done by GW&JS and they will definitely be my first call for any roof work. Jason' s communication is excellent and the roofer Alan is very experienced, capable and helpful. Thank you!

I requested a quotation for replacing my garage roof from several companies but Guy and Jason were the only ones to respond. I got my quote next day, they came when they said they would, did a perfect job, were brilliant at keeping me in touch, coped with the unexpected without any fuss, and tidied up afterwards. A missing piece of guttering was fitted two days later with the same polite good humour which characterised the whole process. I'm scoring them 100% and recommend them unreservedly.

Jason's professionalism and honesty were obvious from when I first called about the leak in our roof. He was able to come round the following morning, arriving early, identified the broken tile and replaced it. I would highly recommend GW & JS Construction Ltd and will definitely call Jason if I even need work done in the future.

These guys are entirely reliable... I first used them because I needed someone in a hurry. They were able to fit me into an already busy schedule.
I have since used them for emergency repairs to a leaking window at our commercial property. They are nursing a rather worn flat roof and undertake regular maintenance.
They have insulated parts of our property.
The service is always first class - they do what they say they are going to do, when they say they are going to do it and to a superbly high standard.
I will be using these guys again... and again!

From start to finish Jason and his team did exactly what they said they were going to do and when they were going to do it. A completely stress free experience which, when it comes to roofing, can be anything but. We were really impressed with the whole team who were knowledgeable and helpful giving some good advice and saving us a little bit of money at the same time. We would happily recommend and use them again.

Requested a quote for a check up of our roof after a few slates became loose and the surrounds looked aged. We had concerns due to the building being listed and 200 years old, Jason provided a full detailed quote including pictures of work required which was provided within days. Work was carried out promptly to a very high standard and Jason was on hand to answer any questions.

I have had Jason attend to several roofing issues in two different houses over the past 5 years and always found the service provided to be prompt, courteous, efficient and good value for money. I recently contacted the firm about a small niggling problem on the very day Jason was off on holiday, but was pleased to wait till he returned, phoned me back and attended to the issue at the first opportunity. The standard of workmanship and the expert knowledge of the roofing trade which he displays makes me confident that the matter is being resolved in the best way. I would not hesitate to use them again.

I contacted them back in Feb 2016 and they did a great job of sorting my leaking roof. All of the team were very polite and competent. They certainly know what they are doing. I had a small blockage in the pipe which caused the water to soak the kitchen carpet during the night and I called Jason who came down and within seconds discovered the pipe was partly blocked and did the job there and then. If you need somebody--CALL JASON. You can have every faith in them.

From the first visit to assess the work required through to the completion they were all very punctual and helpful. The two who did the roof work were pleasant and polite and they tidied up well when they were finished.
Very pleased with our new flat roof.

Following water ingress to the house, Jason & Guy undertook roof repairs which included slate replacement and moss/algae removal on the main roof, along with the complete replacement of a flat roof on the porch. The porch task also involved heightening the porch roof, to allow rainwater to more efficiently drain into existing guttering. The result is fantastic, with the entire porch looking brand new! All aspects of the work were undertaken professionally and with respect to the existing property/garden area. Jason & Guy were punctual and, importantly, reliable. They are a credit to their profession and I have no hesitation in recommending them for roof repairs. I would certainly contact them again in the future.

I had a leaking roof and also a cracked chimney stack which needed attention. Jason arrived at appointed time for initial inspection and then followed up with quote and photos of roof issues later that day. I was kept up to date with progress and made aware of additional issues as they arose and was pleased that the job was completed on time and in budget. Jason, Guy and the team are all very professional, friendly and efficient and I have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Had issues with our flat roof amongst other roof work. Despite these being worse than originally thought Guy and Jason worked hard to keep additional costs to a minimum. Very reliable and kept us informed.

I have used GW&JS for over 10 years and have found that they provide a professional, efficient customer-focused service. Jason, as always, provided good advice and ensured that I was informed throughout. The team arrived punctually on the scheduled day, completed the works as planned and left the site clean and tidy. Guy fully described the issues found, the work undertaken and also checked the integrity of the rest of the roof. I would have no hesitation in recommending GW&JS Construction and would certainly use them again.
