The felt roof of our sunroom was leaking and needed to be replaced. It began well, with a competitive quote and good communication. During the job they even sent photographs of the progress by text message (as we were away). However 3 things went terribly wrong: 1. It went £480 over the initial quotation as the job was larger than expected. Which is fine, except: 2. The night after the new roof was installed it rained and more water poured through the ceiling than had ever done before. To their credit they immediately fixed it the following day, however: 3. A large pile of rubbish was left in the back of garden for two and a half weeks, which they promised four times to remove but never did. In the end they refused to move it and we had to clear it ourselves. This is unacceptable, especially as the job cost £1,590.00 and on the quotation included "Leave site clean and tidy."

Horrible waste of time. Money was paid on a job that persisted and wrecked our home when we went away. I had another roofer come round and said that the current work was between 8 and 10 years old!! Rainbow roofing did absolutely NO work and charged me £500 for it. This company had completely ripped me off, cowboys. How can they sleep at night!? read more

Did a patch-up job charged me over £250. Also when arranging payment, a rational adult conversation was impossible. Finally when attempting to get in touch again as their work had not resolved problem, all calls and texts, despite repeated polite requests to get in touch were ignored. Do not use these cowboys! They will be charming in order to get the work and then leave you in the lurch having wasted the money you paid them to do a job which they won't do. Awful, worst experience I have ever had dealing with a tradesman! read more

Got Rainbow roofing to replace a missing tile and cement a bit of ridge. As far as I can tell no trouble with the actual work, but the process of paying was then a nightmare resulting in being threatened by them within hours of receiving their invoice. I am a single woman not able to cope with such behaviour, so have reported them to citizens advice/trading standards. In the meantime please avoid! read more

Con-artists. Do not use! We paid them over £1000 to fix our leaking roof. The work they performed was shoddy and unprofessional. When we called them to complain we were promised they would return, which they did not. After calling and emailing numerous times over many months and being ignored we took them to small claims court who ruled in our favour. When the bailiff was instructed, they were not found to be at the address they were registered to. We have been in contact with other clients who were also ripped off by the same company. Do not waste your time or money. read more

I would avoid at all costs. Unreliable. No address or Landline on paperwork. Intimidating once job's complete, pushy demands for payment immediately. An unpleasant experience. read more

Cowboys. Steer clear of this outfit. they ask for daily payment and final payment before job is finished. Even then they don't finish the job and leave a mess. They reminded me of a sitcom sketch - so bad they would have been comical had I not been paying. read more

We had storm damage to our roof in December. Rainbow were one of the only roofers who could make it out to do sheeting. Unfortunately the sheeting then came off and had to be redone. It took them two weeks to do this. They demanded a £180 deposit and promised to pay it back if they were given the repair work for the roof. The insurance company gave them the job but they never paid the deposit back to me. Three weeks after Rainbow roofing repaired our dormer the rain again came into our living room, directly from the dormer. I phoned to ask for the deposit back, and that they come to see what was happening and was told to ***** off. This is the worst interaction I have ever had with any company ever. Stay away from, even in extreme emergency. They have caused me endless trouble, and never take responsibility for their own failing. As their facebook page indicates they are also subject to other legal proceedings for work done. read more
