4 All roofs replaced - sunroom, porch and main. All of the guttering facia boards and soffits
Posted 03 April
We consider the standard of work to be pretty good. However we had many communication issues. For example. Scaffolding removed despite outstanding work delaying planned work by a week. One weekend waited for scaffolding to be removed as advised but apparently forthcoming had cancelled the scaffolding company but had not informed us. The skip was left due to communication between forthcoming and skip company and further overloaded with gardening material from a forthcoming subsidiary. The ground was covered in debris - a lot of debris and they had to come back to clear it. Communication badVerified reviewerJob location: NE61Response from Forthcoming group Ltd
Hi Robert, Thank you for your feedback, it’s appreciated. I’m glad you were happy with the standard of work, but sorry communication didn’t meet expectations. The job did change in scope mid-project, turning from a smaller job into a much larger one. We did our best to adapt, but this did impact scheduling and coordination. Regarding nails and clean-up, it’s standard for us to return after scaffolding is removed, as debris can be trapped under boards. We’ll take your feedback on board and improve communication moving forward. Thanks again, Ryan

Lads were very helpful and worked hard. Job was done efficiently and they consulted every step of the way. Also cleaned up and made sure front and back were left in a good condition. Follow up after roof was completed carried out by one if the owners Ryan , he went up on the roof to take photos and do a visual check . All good and any small thing to be addressed once scaffolding removed. Good job and fairly priced for the quality of the work plus a 10 year guaranteeVerified reviewerJob location: NE23Response from Forthcoming group Ltd
Thank you for using us again Margaret

9.67 Full Hip Roof Replacement
Posted 12 March
From the outset, they made the required work very clear and gave options, from repairing areas needing immediate attention to a full roof replacement. I ultimately chose a full replacement, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. They provide insurance-backed guarantees with CPA, which gives real peace of mind. Their work looks outstanding, and any questions or concerns I’ve had were resolved immediately. The team working at my home were pleasant, chatty, and hardworking, even in terrible weather.Verified reviewerJob location: DH6Response from Forthcoming group Ltd
Thank you Sam, it’s really appreciated
