No pushy sales calls. No surprise extras. Just the same straight-talking service Lee and the team have given for 17 years on Essex roofs.
Submit a quote request and a real local roofer rings you back during working hours - not a call centre.
Every quote is a fixed total in writing. No hourly rates, no "we found extra problems" surprises after work begins.
All workmanship is backed by a 20-year written guarantee. If something goes wrong on a job we did, we come back and fix it.
From Victorian terraces in Chelmsford to the newer estates around Basildon, we know Essex roofs inside out. We're based locally, so we're never far away.
Real, verified reviews from Essex homeowners on Rated People.
"Lee and his team came really fast and sorted out all my roof problems. He was open about my options and only suggested what needed fixing, rather than upselling."
"Job done as and when promised, with no mess. Highly recommended."
"Lee and his team did an excellent job, including fixing a guttering problem left by a previous tradesman. There have been no problems since - no leaks - and I'm very satisfied with the result. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."
From first call to job done - here's exactly what happens.
We come out at a time that suits you, properly diagnose what's needed, and explain it in plain English.
You get a detailed quote in writing - total cost, exactly what's included, and how long it'll take.
Booked-in date, professional team, clean site every evening, finished on the day we promised.
We check in once you're settled, register your guarantee, and we're a phone call away if anything's ever wrong.

"I started Authentic Roofing & Building with one simple rule - if I wouldn't accept it on my own house, it doesn't go on yours. Most of our work today comes from word of mouth and second jobs from happy customers. That's how I know we're doing it right."
If we haven't answered yours, just call - Lee or one of the team will help.
Pick up the phone or fill out the form - we'll call you back the same day during working hours.
