    Thomas Hedley were great, but don't trust checkatrade

    Posted 24 January

    Thomas Hedley were great and rescued us from a previous scam job. Ironically we didn't find Thomas Hedley from checkatrade, although we did employ the original scam builders through checkatrade. Go figure... Anyway Thomas Hedley were great, communicative, kept us updated on progress, were friendly and helpful and the quality of the work looks good. I would recommend them.

    A very good reputable family business

    Posted 09 October 2025

    I can’t recommend Karl, Lee and the team enough. Mr Hedley, their Dad used to look after my Dads roof for him and I knew of his excellent reputation from then so I rang them when I had problems with my roof. Karl came and discussed with me what was needed to be done and within a week Lee and his team had it repaired. Very efficient and thoughtful of clients coming in and out of my business while they worked. Definitely 5 ⭐️’s from me. I won’t hesitate to recommend Thomas Hedley and Sons in the future

    Great service!!

    Posted 08 October 2025

    I recently used Thomas Hedley & Sons for some roofing work on my property and I couldn't be more impressed. Carl was very helpful from first point of contact to when the job was finished and what a finish it was, to a very high standard. The team were very professional on site and polite. Made sure I was fully satisfied with the work done before tidying up and leaving the site exactly how they found it. Couldn’t recommend them enough for any roofing work needed!
