Can anyone recommend a roofer in the Worthing area? We have a couple of tiles that have slipped and need resetting so only a few minutes work.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

I'm not a roofer, but am in the building trade, and I'd suggest that you let a roofer decide if it's ' a few minutes work '.

We had a leaking flat roof and we used DW Roofing. Very good, despite being a Palace fan.

I have a couple of quality recommendations also, but the lads won't be told that it's only a few minutes work, by a non roofer customer, I suspect.

I had an old customer ( female palace fan) text me last week.. "I'm having a loft conversion next week and need heating up there, it's only one radiator so think it's a painless job"

Not sure how many times I've heard " while you're here, can you re do the sealant on my bath? "

You're a touchy lot aren't youBig mistake, under no circumstances tell any tradesman this.
Do what I did.
Wait till your neighbour decides they need a new roof.
Hope they contract https://www.russtheroofer.com/
While a Russ of some kind was on their roof, call out:-
"Hey Russ any chance you can slide those tiles back in for me?"
One of the Russ' duly obliged and earned the easiest £20 in history.
It was only a few minutes work.

Do you like people telling you how to do your job?
Oh I fully understand how that can be frustrating for you, but the reaction to the OP is still quite funny. A simple 'ask some roofers how long it will take, as I expect the work will take longer than you think' would have done, but instead the thread (about finding a roofer) has turned in to a tradesmen's 'bellend customers' thread. Not that I mind, it's just funny.
