What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Householders with period properties, from Victorian terraces to Georgian homes, repeatedly describe Mark Winters and his colleague Dan as a reassuring presence on roofing and leadwork projects. Several customers mention that assessments are thorough, with drone footage and photographs used to inspect chimneys, bay windows and flashing before any recommendation is made. Something that features in review after review is the clarity of written quotations and the way repair options are explained at different levels of cost, including the replacement of tired roofs and the renewal of leadwork above bays and doorways.

Reviewers praise the craftsmanship, describing tidy results that respect the original appearance of older buildings, and note that Mark is punctual, arriving when he says he will and working to the agreed price. Communication is another recurring theme, with photographs supplied during and after jobs so that customers can see what has been improved. Water ingress problems are reported as diagnosed and resolved promptly, and longer-standing clients return for further work because of the reliability and honest advice they receive. Dan is named alongside Mark as pleasant to have on site.

We recently had Mark undertake repairs to the roof of our Victorian terraced house - including lead work on a bay window. Mark is an excellent communicator, this was clear when he came out to assess the roof and what was needed, using a drone plus getting actual ladders out and conducting a thorough inspection. Mark explained the options to us and the costs for the various levels of repair. He followed this up with written quotation. The work was completed to a high standard and as scheduled, Mark explained what he was doing and how it was progressing as he went along, so there were no surprises. The lead work on the bay window is especially lovely. Mark is very personable and was a pleasure to chat to, likewise his occasional teammate Dan. Both worked very hard in some rough weather to make sure they got the job done. I would reach out to Mark again for all things roofing and therefore would happily recommend him to others.

Mark recently replaced the led work on our bay window, and undertook significant repairs to the roof. We are extremely pleased with his work and craftsmanship, and also the detailed communication and photos throughout. Mark and his colleague Dan are also great company to have around!

I contacted Mark regarding a concern that I had about the lead flashing on my chimney. He answered his phone immediately and after I explained my concerns he said that he would call round later that day to take a look. He arrived as agreed and immediately set about to take a close look with his drone, showing me the footage and taking multiple photos from different angles to study. Later that evening Mark sent me copies of the photos along with his professional opinion. A superb professional 5 star service.

Update 2026- had Mark and his team back to do more work for me last week to repair and replace the roof on a lower roof at the back of the house. Again a fantastic job by Mark and his team, great communication throughout, and Mark always communicated and showed me if there were any surprises that needed to be sorted during the job, and always explained thoroughly what needed to be done. Tidy workers too always left everything nice and tidy. You can tell by talking to Mark and by seeing the completed work that he cares about quiality and doing a job to the highest possible standards and gives attention to the details. Very happy with the work done as always. Thanks Mark. 2019 - A definite 5 star service from Mark and his team from start to finish. Mark came round to look at the job, took some photos and sent me a quote for the work. We planned a date for the work to be carried out, Mark also planned for the scaffold to go up and work was carried out when we'd agreed. My roof and chimney now looks amazing, I can't believe the difference. Very happy with the result, I would definitely recommend Mark for the excellent communication throughout, always kept me informed of what was happening and obviously for the quality of the work that was carried out.

Mark has done several jobs for us over the years, he is and always has been super helpful, honest and of course does a fantastic job. We recently had evidence of water ingress, Mark popped round, quickly identified the issue and had a solution which fixed the problem on the same day. A great service delivered with genuine care, which is consistent with our experience to date, we couldn’t recommend more highly!

I can't recommend Mark's work highly enough. Immaculate craftsmanship - who would know I enjoy looking at lead so much?! And just a really honest, reliable guy - have loads of different options for different affordabilities, always turned up when he said he would and took loads of photos of the work as he was doing it (which was great for our peace of mind in knowing exactly what improvements had been done). I'm really pleased we booked Mark.

Mark recently effected Leadwork repairs to the bay window and front door of our Georgian townhouse where the lead had split and was letting in water. Mark gave various options and we chose the most suitable for the period of house. The repairs were effected in a professional and timely manner and within budget. We are delighted with the end result and have no hesitation recommending Mark’s services to anyone looking for a professional craftsman who takes pride in his work.
