Some friends of mine are looking to have some work done on their roof in Patterdale. Does anyone have any recommendations for reliable roofing contractors in the area? They’ve phoned round a few already to request quotes but none have replied.  

My ex (in northern Lancs) had lots of trouble getting a roofer last year. Took months. Lots of backlog? I've had no end of trouble getting a fence builder.

If there are any local facebook groups they can join, that might be an idea.  got some good recommendations for a local firm to fix my gate and fence last year.  People seemed to be really willing to share names of places who had done good work in the past.

We've used John Curwen in Kendal, 19 miles away, who was good. Maybe could find ones closer? Or ring him and ask for a recommend?

Tell them to give Brackens a call. They worked on ours a few years ago and seemed to do a good job.

Trouble is with any trades people in the lakes at the moment is they’re all stacked out. 

That’s a good shout, thanks.
