    Superb Job quick and efficient.

    Posted 20 May

    James and his team carried out repairs to the guttering to the front of my property. They also totally replaced guttering to the rear extension. James explained everything to me clearly and was very polite and informative. The work was carried out quickly and efficiently and everything was left tidy. I would recommend without hesitation.

    Guttering repairing. James and his friend did a great job on repairing my leaking gutter,

    Posted 19 March

    The leaking gutter was done by an irresponsible company in Havant last year. They left the job unfinished and never comeback after I paid. James and his friend came and fixed the leakage almost straight away after I phoned him. Most impressively, they are very reliable people, doing a great job within a reasonable price. Really hope more builders like them , so can make us , ordinary people live a bit easier and less stressful. Thanks so much.

J & A Roofing Specialists are a very reliable and trustworthy company who provide a very high standard of work, from small repairs to a complete re-roof.

With over 30 years experience in the roofing business, we rate customer satisfaction and quality of work exceptionally highly and anything less than 100%, to us, just isn't good enough.

I personally have been roofing for 24 years and my team including an exceptional lead specialist with over 35 years experience, a bricklayer with over 25 years experience and roof tilers with over 15 months years experience, have worked with all the main house builders including Taylor Wimpey, Barratt Homes, Bellway Homes and Linden Homes to name a few.

We specialise in slate and tiled pitched roofs, all lead work, general repairs and maintenance, firewalls, lead and GRP valleys, single ply flat roofs, mineral finish flat roofs, re pointing and all chimney/brickwork, timber or UPVC fascia, soffit and guttering to name a few.

We offer free estimates and advice, so please do not hesitate to call for any help.

We also offer a 24 hour emergency call out service.

We are proud members of Checkatrade and take much pride in every job we do.

Thank you for your time and we look forward to hearing from you.
