CGF Roofing

5 years ago this company fitted a new flat roof for me, called them recently as there was a leak and Rob turned up, he said nothing wrong with the flat roof but the tiled roof needed re - felting agreed a price and he asked for a deposit, as he had done the work 5 years previously did not think any thing of it so paid him a £200 deposit, set a date for the work to begin which was then cancelled due to bad weather, attempted on numerous occasions to set a new date was then Finally given one, that date came and went and now he has disappeared of the face of the earth with my £200 deposit so my advice would be don't use him, have had 2 other roofers look at the leak since and both said it is because there is no pitch on the roof and the water is not draining away which when I looked on the weekend could see it was like a boating lake now having to have the flat roof re-done. This Company were also previously known as CGF Roofing based in Bridgend.

USE THIS COMPANY and YOU WILL EITHER LOOSE YOUR DEPOSIT OR HAVE POOR WORKMANSHIP AND PROBABLY HAVE TO HAVE IT RE FITTED ….

And so the Saga continues, as you will see I was offered my money back ! And that turned out to be a pack of Lies, currently there are a few Gallons of water sat on my roof and he says there is nothing wrong, so far 3 other roofers have looked at it and All said it was not fitted correctly .. And to add insult to injury he then Steals £200 he must be very hard up …

Great job done on replacing our flat roof. R G roofing provided a written quote giving full details of the job undertaken. The job was completed without any issues. I was impressed by the quality of the work. His team of men were professional, courteous and even cleaned up after themselves. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to have work done.

I contacted RG roofing , as my mum had water coming through her kitchen ceiling. Within 30 minutes they arrived , and found the cause of the problem. They gave us a free quotation , with in two hours. After checking their reviews , we were happy except the quotation. The work was carried out the same day , and I would like to thank them , for getting the repair done , so quick. I will deafly be using this firm again on my own house.

I contacted this roofing firm to carry out two separate jobs on my cottage.
Job 1.
In May of this year, this company supplied me with a quote to fit upvc fascia boards, which were to go around my downstairs extension and repair a hole in my fibreglass roof.
Job 2
They gave me a quote to change my old upvc fascia boards on the pine end of my property, to moulded hardwood barge boards. They also agreed to extend the slate roof overlapping the boards.

We agreed a price for both of the above jobs, and we were told they would be completed within a month. We paid £850 in advance for materials required for the jobs, in the first week, men from this company turned up and fitted the fascias on the extension. This job was not finished, as my guttering was left on the floor, and the joints and the trim were not sealed. Two weeks after, they rang and asked for a further £800, this was to be used to pay for scaffolding and moulded hardboards.
They also told me the first job would be finished in a matter of days, we have not seen them since. In total we paid £1650 to them, since this payment, we emailed and phoned them multiple times, only to be met with a barrage of excuses.

We later found out that the scaffolder DOES NOT get paid until the job is done, so they lied to us about money for the scaffolder and the hardwood boards. Weeks and Months went past, it was now the end of November, 6 months from the original date and still no sight of anybody.

At this point, my wife and I decided to write them a letter, demanding the repayment of £800. Within four days of sending this letter, our scaffolding was taken down. So we paid for the scaffolding to be erected and taken down, albeit with NO work commencing.

We then decided to take them to the SMALL CLAIMS COURT, this came at a cost of £60 as we did it online. They were contacted by the COURT four days later. Within the next four days, we received a cheque for £860 from them.

My honest advice to anybody who is contemplating contacting this company, regarding any sort of work is not to bother. This is because they WILL take money upfront, your job WILL NOT be done to any sort of satisfactory standard. They will constantly lie to you, and then fob you off with a barrage of excuses.

I can honestly say, I would not want to meet anyone from this company ever again. They caused my wife and I untold and unnecessary stress. If you have had similar issues as myself, my advice is to take them through the proper legal channels to Court.

P.S I have only awarded one star because I had to, in order to post this review. If I could have awarded ZERO stars, I would have happily done so.

Recently had R G Roofing come out and look at my flat roof problem, was extremely pleased as not only were they cheaper than the previous roofing company that come out but they offered a much better solution and completely re-roofed the whole area without compromising on quality and finish. Highly Recommend. Thank you rob and your team.

Rob gives a 20 year guarantee for his roofs. The roof was leaking and has caused damage inside the house. He 'fixes' the problem... which ends up causing further damage. He then ignores messages and phone calls. Resulting in another company having to fix the issues, which has caused double the cost.... AVOID this roofer! Terrible service, definitely would not recommend!!

**ROBERT GOOCH ROOFERS BRIDGEND** I definitely would not touch this so called roofer with a bargepole, he came to price up our roof and we paid him money up front, only to not hear from him since, further investigation proves he is a con man, does this regularly and has also featured his own special appearance on x-ray.. My husband is currently recuperating from cancer, this low life knew this and still took our money and run, an added pressure we could have done without!! He'll be receiving a court letter from us soon and no doubt from ALL his other victims. Stay away from him and his company unless you're happy to be ripped off. Share away!!🤬

DO NOT GO NEAR THIS COMPANY .THEY DO NOT HONOUR A WARRANTY ,After completing a flat roof job 8 months ago with a 10 year warranty ,we noticed there was still discolouration on the celing ,contacted him and no reply .Latter he replyed and said he was Ill but would come and look.That was months ago . Damp is now getting worse and roof is only 8 months old .
BEWARE ..
