Excellent customer service from Dalton Roofing, especially Ruby, who took my enquiry, and Phil, who came out. Unfortunately, I had a very bad experience with another company. I paid them £100 for a roof inspection, and they quoted me hundreds of pounds for repairs that they deemed necessary, to put the roof in good order. The quote was rather vague, and I felt that it was leading to them finding more problems, and therefore charging me much more, if I agreed to them completing the work. I contacted Dalton Roofing, and explained my problem. My insurance company were insisting on a report, and work done, if it was deemed necessary, or my insurance would be invalid. This had to be by a reputable company who are part of a confederation. Thankfully my neighbour suggested contacting Dalton Roofing, which I did. Ruby was helpful on the phone, and arranged for Phil to visit the house today. He was very helpful, professional, and friendly. His inspection resulted in me being told that the roof is in good order, with no faults or problems, and will last for many years. Phil has restored my faith in decent, honest, and reliable companies, who are keen to maintain an excellent reputation. I will use Dalton Roofing if I need any work carried out in the future, and will be happy to recommend them to family and friends. Thanks Phil, I can sleep a lot better tonight.

Fantastic service from Dalton Roofing. Phil and team were super friendly and took time to explain the problem before fixing our damaged roof tiles. Highly recommend their professional and quality service. .

Dalton Roofing come highly recommended - really professional, efficient and trustworthy. We had an initial visit to estimate for the work, followed quickly by a very competitive quote. The team carried out the work to our chimney and gutters really quickly, efficiently and safely. We'll be using them again. Thanks again.

I have just had Dalton Roofing re-point my chimney stack including replacing 4 broken roof tiles. They did a neat job of repointing etc to a very high standard, cleaned my gutters afterwards and swept my path and back yard. The roofers were very professional and decent lads who respected my property. As agreed by Dalton Roofing and myself, they roofers took before and after close up photos of the chimney stack. The admin team always kept me updated by email. I know this day and age finding a trustworthy roofer can be very difficult at times which is why I fell lucky finding Dalton Roofing. Prior to finding Dalton Roofing I had been messed about by a few roofing companies who were a bunch of greedy time wasters. Dalton are reasonably priced and work to a very high standard. I am very happy and feel rest assured that my chimney stack is structurally safe. Thank you Dalton Roofing.

Must visit in Eyam! Although we’ve arrived 5 minutes before closure (open on Sundays 11am-5pm) the lovely host made us tea and served us her delicious, with love home baked scones. The tea was served with cute cups and cutlery. We sat in the beautiful outside area with flowers blooming. We have been invited to roam around in the private garden and look at all the flowers. Due to network problems, the card machine didn’t work but the friendly lady offered us to transfer the money once we would have reception again - this is pure kindness and trust in people which is rare to find these days. The visit at the tea house was the highlight of the day and we would recommend it to everyone! Dog friendly.

Romantic vintage-style little tea room with indoor and outdoor seating, tucked away on the edge of Eyam. Cakes are homemade, fresh and tasty, tea and coffee good quality and generous portions. The owner is lovely, an interesting person to speak to and goes the extra mile where service is concerned. Can recommend highly. Savoury food and Sunday dinners also on offer.

Very sweet place, with such lovely decor and atmosphere that we just stumbled across at the end of our walk around Eyam. Great soup selection and looked like lovely cakes ❤️

This is a wonderful, authentic village tea room. All home baked and delicious. We spoke to the owner who explained the history of the cottage and the 1600's barn that she has preserved and now serves as the indoor area of the tea room (there is an outdoor area too should the weather oblige!) The tea room is only open on Sundays and Mondays (currently) so if you are in Eyam - do yourself a favour and enjoy one of the best tea rooms anywhere!

I’m so glad I chose Ark Roofing. Simon came and gave me a price to replace ridge tiles, repoint the chimney, fix a new chimney cowl and replace the lead flashing The crew who came to do the job were brilliant and kept me informed. They left everywhere near and tidy. I’ll not hesitate to recommend them and have them back for any future jobs I might need doing. Thank you Simon and the team

I contacted Simon and he came round to give me a quote on a leaking flat roof. The quote price was as expected. Due to the weather his team could not do the repair on my flat roof straight away, but as soon as the weather improved and he could fit my repair in he sent his team round. 3 of them came and i could not fault them. They were all polite and kept me informed. The job was completed in a day but a a small area was missed. As soon as i spoke to Simon the day after when he came to take payment he understood and sorted the missed area straight away with no issues and before i had to pay. His team came round within half an hour and fixed the missed area. Brilliant. All rubbish was cleared from my drive as promised and the flat roof looks so good now. I would definitely contact Simon again and would recommend them to others who need a roof repair. Thank you Simon and the team.

Simon and his team were great throughout. Replaced our roor which was was in sore need of attention. Really pleased with the results and they dealt with a few snags very quickly. Excellent tradesmen - would recommend.

Simon was recommended by my sister and husband. I had a problem with the ridge tiles, he came along quoted me a price and a week later the ridge tiles were replaced by an excellent team, also solved a further issue for me. I would definitely use Ark Roofers again.

My flat roof was in a bad way and leaking badly. I had a few quotes which varied from £700 upwards. Some of the quotes appeared to be ridiculous and unrealistic. I finally made my choice of Jono and partners. What personable gentlemen. They came to my home and quoted me for the job and scaffolding. This was given in writing which made me feel comfortable in their practices, proving that they were not afraid to put money where their mouth is. Trust was both ways as no money was requested upfront. They trusted me to pay on completion and i trusted them to do a fantastic job. Scaffolding went up and in two days a new flat roof was under way. I asked Jono for proof of work by means of photos from start to finish. Jono delivered everything I asked and I was shocked at the state of my crumbling roof. After a full day's work my roof had been transformed accompanied with new facias. I was ecstatic with the end result as Jono delivered on his promise. For anyone reading this don't look any further. Your choice is Jono. You want a good job then I suggest you give him a call. I had two cowboys before Jono as there are too many people out there to take your money. Fortunately Jono is legitimate and honest restoring my faith in tradesmen.

Jono, Rob and Paul, a very personable team that work together well. Their work is to a very high standard with a level of detail second to none. Jono was the only roofer that looked at the existing detailing and offered a solution, most just wanted to use plastic where ours and the adjoining roof next door are aluminium trimmed. A lot of thought went into the fall and drainage of the roof, resulting in a slight redesign which offered better drainage. I would recommend Amber Flat Roofing to all and already have passed details to two neighbours, who are seeking quotes.

Thanks to Johno, Rob and Paul. Really pleased I chose Amber Flat Roofing to replace my tired felt roof with a EPDM one. Their quote was competitive. They were friendly, polite and professional. The finish is superb and I definitely would recommend this company. Thanks again.

They were very professional and friendly. The work was done to a very high standard and what they quoted was carried out. I am absolutely delighted with my new flat roof they have given me peace of mind. Although they planned to do it in two days due to weather it took three. Their cleaning up of the old roof was fantastic they did it very well leaving no waste behind. I totally recommend their services.

Highly recommend Lester and his team. Came to the property, quoted and job completed all in under a week of me first ringing for help with a leaky roof! What more could you want?! All friendly and polite, tidied up after themselves and a great job done fixing the roof. Thanks chaps 😊

Rating: 5 / 5

Highly recommend these guys. Had my whole roof done by them after another company botched their work and left me in a mess. Quoted a good price, and started the work a week later. Everything was all done in two days, and they left the area cleaner than they came into. A storm arrived the night they finished and it was the first night in a long time I slept without worrying about water coming in. They were good blokes, ready to work and happy to be there. Didn't feel any negativity from any of them. Lester always replied promptly to questions, and kept me updated throughout with pictures. Will use them again for a chimney issue I have. They are big fans of coffee, and deserve the best cups

After being let down by a previous roofer, we contacted James, who came when he said he would to look at what was needed, gave a very reasonable price for the work and booked us in very quickly. He ordered all the materials needed to complete the job, came on time and worked very hard in the rain, work is to very high standard, we are absolutely delighted and can't thank you enough. Would highly recommend to others. Thanks again, Simon and Coralie

James was recommended by a friend and did not disappoint. Excellent service provided, clear and friendly communication, prompt and fair quotation, showed up on time and completed all works to a high standard and took the time to explain what had been done and how (Dry verge installation, multiple tile and felt/batten replacement). Thank you again James 👍

Really look forward to a visit to Village Green when I’m in Eyam - the food is delicious and creative, obviously made by people who care. This time, a delicious tomato fennel soup, and a chorizo toastie with chilli jam. Inside the cafe is cosy, but I especially love sitting at an outside table, watching the world go by

Rating: 5 / 5

Nice cafe, I’d say a bit overpriced, but it maybe because popular location or so. We had an amazing brekkie there, and its dog friendly. Coffee was good.

Rating: 5 / 5

Very welcoming and friendly cafe. Food and coffee unreal, would highly recommend the peanut butter bar, mushroom and egg breakfast roll and their new mozzarella and pesto roll. We travel here from Manchester on a regular basis, food and service here is best around.

Rating: 5 / 5

Small but perfectly formed, describes this venue! Plenty of outdoor seating, but weather was a little variable for that option when we visited. Lovely staff and food that tasted every bit as good as it looked. We had spinach and feta tart and a roasted veg, chilli jam, cheese toasty, both served with a delicious homemade coleslaw, and great coffee. Not the cheapest lunch out there, but definately worth the money.

Josh was the only roofer that got in touch to give me a quote for storm damage to my roof. As soon as I contacted him to say the job was his he arranged the scaffolders they was there very quickly. Josh then turned up the following morning to do the job, the work was completed that day. I would highly recommend Josh and I he will be my first call if I have anymore issues with my roof.

Josh completed a complete reroof of our grade 2 listed property. All done with welsh slate and new leadwork. A joy to see a real craftsman at work. We are extremely pleased with the job and would highly recommend Josh and his team.

Very professional and impressive work, I would recommend JGR roofing to anybody who wants a perfectionist finished job and very skilled leadwork.

Rating: 5 / 5

Absolutely recommend Josh and we haven't even had the work carried out as yet but we’re more than confident it will be spot on. Communication was outstanding, Josh turned up when he said he would and it was on a Sunday!!! Very polite and professional. He found the problem and is going to sort it. I will only be recommending JGR roofing from now on to my friends, family & clients as so many tradesman can't even answer the phone let alone turn up when promised. Keep up the good work, we need more tradesmen like you!
