How to spot a dodgy roofer

Roofing has more doorstep scams than almost any other trade. Four warning signs, and why we do the opposite:

Doorstep visits

Someone knocks saying they've "spotted a loose tile" while working nearby. Trading Standards say not to deal with uninvited traders at all.

Pressure to decide now

A price that's only good today, or work that has to start this afternoon. A genuine roofer will give you a written quote and time to think.

No photos, no paperwork

If they won't show you the problem or put the price in writing, you have no way to check either.

Cash up front

Large cash deposits before any work, or offers to drive you to the bank. Pay for materials and work as they're delivered, by traceable methods.

How to choose a roofer

Questions people ask

How much should a roofer charge per hour?

Roofers in the UK commonly charge £280 to £360 a day for bigger jobs (MyBuilder, 2026), and Checkatrade puts the average rate for a roofer in Doncaster at £35 to £45 an hour. Most roofing work is priced per job rather than by the hour, which is how we do it: one fixed written price after the inspection.

How much does a new roof cost in the UK?

A new roof on a standard semi-detached or detached house typically costs £4,000 to £13,000 in 2026. The covering (concrete tile, clay tile or slate), scaffolding, chimneys and the shape of the roof make the biggest difference.

How can you tell a dodgy roofer?

Be wary of anyone who knocks on your door saying they've spotted a problem, wants an answer on the spot, won't put the price in writing, or asks for a large cash deposit. Trading Standards advise not dealing with doorstep traders at all and getting written quotes from more than one roofer.

How do I choose a good roofer?

Get two or three written quotes, ask for photos of the problem, check the business is a registered company, ask about insurance and a written guarantee, and for a full re-roof ask whether they can self-certify under Building Regulations. Our guide to choosing a roofer has a full checklist.

Is the roof inspection really free?

Yes. There's no charge for the inspection and no obligation to go ahead. You get the photos and a fixed written price, and you decide in your own time.

What happens at the inspection?

We look at the roof from the ground and, where it's safe, from a ladder or the loft. We photograph what we find, explain it, and send you a fixed written price covering the work, the scaffolding if it's needed, and waste removal.
