Our clients say
The recent stormy weather played havoc with our roof. Broken slates and missing slates. The roof was in bad shape. Fairmile Roofing came recommended to us by a friend who’d had work done so we called them and gave them the go ahead to fix thhe broken slates and replace the missing ones before the problem got worse. We found them very pleasant to deal with and their work was done to a high standard.
Mr & Mrs Johnstone , Penicuik
We had our garage roof completely renewed by Fairmile Roofing due. All the joinery work need replaced and the roof felt had deteriorated so badly over the years, we realised it was time to hire a roofing company to install one. Fairmile Roofing gave us a decent quote for the work, so we decided to go with them. All work went ahead to plan and we are completely satified by the quality or work they carried out.
Mr & Mrs Stevens , Edinburgh
Our new Velux windows were supplied and installed by Fairmile Roofing. They arrived on time and worked tirelessly until the job was done. Great bunch of guys all round and very good at what they do.
Mr & Mrs Archibald , Musselburgh
Having been let down repeatedly over the past 2 months by other roofing company’s in the past. Fairmile Roofing stepped in at very short notice to sort out our leaking hidden roof gulley. They explained the job with photos and gave a very reasonable price. On the day Fairmile roofing turned up on time and got to it straight away. Always cheerful and happy to answer questions. (A lot of trades people could take some customer care lessons from Fairmile roofing !) The job was completed in good time and we were shown photos of the works undertaken. All in all a very positive experience and we will certainly be using Fairmile roofing in the future should the need arise.
S. Thomson, Edinburgh
Excellent company. Called them with urgent request to carry out work on my roof. Three hours later job was done and dusted. It took longer than estimated but no extra charge was made.
J. Johnstone, Edinburgh
Fairmile roofing do a great job. The workforce are friendly and hardworking We had them to do our roof and were so pleased with the service that we have recommended them to our neighbours who have also had work carried out by them.
J. Mclean, Edinburgh
I had Repairs done to the original slate roof and replacement trim on front dormer also gutter work. Quote was exceptionally reasonable compared to other roofing companies I had in to quote for the same work. Christopher and Paul were very friendly and punctual. They knew what they needed to do to work with the historic rules and permits of my property. The job was started on time and the Foremen kept me apprised of any schedule changes as the work progressed. Work was done as described in the quote. Men were wonderful to work with and very professional. Left the premises in pristine condition everyd ay. Never a worry if the job was being done right. Professional company and would highly recommend FAIRMILE ROOFING to anyone needing roof repairs in and around Edinburgh! Will be using this company again without hesitation!
