brw1659
built a brick wall

Matthew responded to my request for a quote very promptly and came and diagnosed the problem (water ingress from an external chimney causing damp on the breast internally) that same day and was able to carry out the work in a timely manner. The job ended up being slightly bigger than we had originally envisioned but Matthew clearly explained (with pictures) what the problems were and kept us updated with how the work was progressing. Happy to recommend Matthew to friends and family.

100% good tradesmen who delivered as quoted.

ideal_response_group
Repointing of brickwork

Communication was very good throughout the project. Matthew spent time looking at the property, making suggestions and coming up with options for different ways of delivering the work. He gave us a detailed quote that meant we both knew what was included in the price. Once the building work started, he let us know any issues he found, and talked through what the different options were. The work was completed to budget and carried out with a high level of workmanship. It was evident throughout how much professional pride Matthew took in delivering high quality workmanship. We are very happy with the result and pleased to recommend Matthew.

I needed a slipped roof tile replaced and its surrounding strengthened for one of my rented property. Matt took on the job, went over with his guys, and completed the work promptly. As I wasn’t about, he sent me a clear picture of his completed work for me to see. I will use him again. And I recommend him to other MyBuilder users.

Repair roof slate roof and metal gutter

We hired City Roofing to carry out a number of building jobs around our house including a new roof, outside rendering, extension of our porch and laying of a new driveway. Matthew who led the team was fantastic. He was always on hand to promptly discuss the work that was being carried out, and he and his team were highly professional throughout. We were particularly impressed with how Matthew would always go the extra mile to ensure we were completely satisfied with the work. If there were any questions we had throughout the project Matthew would always be on hand to guide us and provide honest pragmatic advice. Of the many builders we've had, Mathew and his team have been by far the best to work with and we felt in safe hands throughout. We will definitely be keeping Matthew's details for future projects.

City Roofing and Building did a great job on rebuilding the brick wall at the front of my property. They finished the job on time, and when "gotchas" arose (as they always do) they explained to me what was going on and dealt with it in their stride. I'd happyily recommend them to anyone.

Repairs to front fence uprights

Lee and Matthew are both brilliant. I chose City Building and Roofing for the job because out of the 6 builders who evaluated the situation- their pricing was fair, their manner, excellent and their time spent explaining everything to someone who hasn’t a clue, was informative without being confusing. Professional, thorough, attentive, knowledgeable and communicative. They got the job done despite bad weather at the time and so far, so good. When teething (not even) problems occurred, they were straight on it and went above and beyond to get everything right. I’m SO glad I hired them, I’d recommend them for their expertise and I would absolutely hire them again in the future.

Roof repairs

Matthew and his team came to the rescue at short notice, just before Xmas, and did wonderful job at saving a massive leak into my bedroom. I couldn’t find a roofer to help out on such short notice but Matthew did everything possible to get his team to work on a Saturday to fix the issue. It was just on time as that night it rained so heavily that there would have been extensive damage so I am extremely grateful to his professional help and forthcoming nature to help me so efficiently and quickly fix the problem. I couldn’t recommend him and his team more.

Repair leaking Velux Skylight

We needed our entire roof replaced, with new tiles, underfelt and insulation installed. Matthew and his team were very professional and courteous during the entire process, making sure to explain things clearly at every stage. While the tiles were off, we had some very heavy rain which caused some water to leak into the eaves and subsequently damage the ceiling to our downstairs room. Matthew made sure to repair the damage at no extra cost and prevent any more leaks. They installed new plasterboard and painted the whole thing. We also had a few holes and cracks in the loft room due to the roof works, which they filled in and made good at the end of the job. All rubbish was cleared afterwards promptly.

Matthew and Lee replaced the glass conservatory-style roof over our rear extension (which was leaky and made the room very cold in winter) with a GRP "warm" roof incorporating two rooflights. We are very happy indeed with the result. It was a high quality job. Matthew and Lee were very pleasant people to deal with. They clearly care about their work. They will come back and redo something if you are not happy. They were always cheerful, even when the weather made things really difficult for them. Would definitely recommend!

Guttering and fascia boards

We own what they call a lion house, an Edwardian property in Wandsworth. The brick column holding a heavy stone lion at the apex of the roof was disintegrating, causing the lion to lean rather dangerously, so it was a matter of urgency to get the brickwork replaced with new bricks, also the concrete plinth the lion sits on needed replacing. I contacted City Roofing, and luckily they were able to do the job quickly. I live in Cornwall, so it's always a problem finding builders etc who don't rip you off, do a substandard job because they know I won't re around to inspect, so I was taking my usual chance hiring Matthew (City Roofing), but he's done an excellent job, and I couldn't be happier, we spoke over the phone throughout, and what a nice guy to deal with, he sent pictures of before and after, so I was assured of his work, and the pictures told the story, a brilliant piece of work, done quickly and efficiently. I can happily recommend City Roofing, and should I need anymore building work done, they are definitely top of my list.

Re-tile roof.

I hired Matthew and his team to remove nesting birds from the eaves of my roof and install anti roosting spikes to prevent the birds from returning. I live in a block of flats with 8 other tenants, so Matthew not only had me to contend with, but 8 other voices and opinions.

fionab_77
Fit anti roosting spike on apartment roof

The true sign of a professional with integrity is how they react when things don't go quite according to plan. Matthew and his team did the job as required, were utterly professional and acted with complete integrity. I have no hesitation in recommending him and would invite him back to do further work.
It is relatively easy to get a good review when everything goes smoothly, to get a good review even when they don't is something that really is hard earned. Things did go wrong, but Matthew's response was exemplary; he responded quickly, without hesitation and sorted the problem as soon as he possibly could.
This really is a class outfit.

Damp around windows

Having done excellent work for us before, Matthew, Lee & the team came to the rescue when a side roof on our house was badly damaged in Storm Ciaran (Nov 2023) and we had serious water-leakage inside. They made the roof secure while Matthew prepared clear & conscientious reports of the damage etc. For the insurance company. That having been sorted, they completed a good full repair on the roof. They are really experienced, with a great range of skills, always a polite & professional manner, punctual etc. City Building and Roofing will always be our go-to for building work & repair.

Julia Raeburn

Roof repair

Matt has done a few jobs around the place for me – a fence, roofing work and other bits and pieces I couldn't do myself! I found him through a friend of a friend and he gave me a price that I was confident with so went ahead with it. He was very, very reliable and didn't mess around. He was always polite, listened to what I wanted and completed the job to a great standard.

Matt, Mike and their team assessed our requirements, responded promptly to any concerns and communicated very well throughout. They take obvious pride in their work and project-managed the job well in the face of unpredictable weather and extra issues that came to light. They were always courteous and good-humoured. They tidied up scrupulously after the job and came in on the agreed quote. They have guaranteed their work so that if there are any problems we can come back to them.

New flat roof.

Matthew responded quickly to our advertisement and identified the root cause, and took my husband up on the roof to show him. He fixed the problem quickly and for a very reasonable price and we can see our wall is starting to dry out. He also fixed another problem we had found at the back of the house. We would definitely recommend City Roofing and Building Limited and hire them again if required.

Matthew is a very professional individual and since he did my soak away, he has also repaired the roof, repointed the chimney, redone two flat roofs and changed all the garden fence panels. Matthew is a punctual individual who is meticulous and has great attention to details, which even extends to his invoice. Matthew delivers great clean quality of work at a good price. I would happily recommend Matthew and I will continue using his services for any work to be done in my house.

I have used City Building and Roofing for the last 10 years and I have always been very happy with the quality of their workmanship and time keeping. I have done many jobs with them, roof, rain water soakaway, fence, patio, and I will not use any other companies as long as City Building exits. I know that whatever happens to my house, City Building will always be there to do the work including emergency work due to storm. I highly recommend this company from quality of work, reliability and pricing.
