Steve Roofer

I started to specialise in roofing and then in flat roofing. I've tested more than 15 different liquid roofing systems, and worked with vinyl roofing and EPDM rubber. In recent years I set up London Roof Surveys, mainly because as I'm getting older and wiser I tend to do more roof surveys. COVID hit, I lost one of my main workmen, so I had to reduce my roofing teams. One of the more positive knock-on effects of COVID was that my son-in-law was made redundant (COVID) from his job as an aircraft engineer, and he came to work with me. Now, two years on, he is starting to take over the roofing side of the business. Coming from a background in the aviation industry, where strict rules apply to supply and maintenance, he is amazed at how lax the building industry is. It is a pleasure to have someone working with me who thinks and cares about what he is doing, together with having foresight and understanding with regard to the consequences of our work on roofs for the years to come.
