Our story
Started local. Stayed local.
Trent Roofing has been looking after roofs across Nottingham and Derby for 18 years. What started as a small, hands-on operation has grown into a team with a proper reputation — built on doing the job right, keeping people in the loop, and not upselling work that isn't needed.
Ben is personally on every job. He's not just a name above the door — he's up on the roof, spotting what needs doing, and keeping you updated as the work progresses. He'll send photos and videos so you know exactly what's going on, not just a bill at the end. Customers notice that. It's why so many of them come back.
The team covers everything from emergency repairs after a storm to full roof replacements on properties that haven't had work done in a century. When Michael Gallagher needed his original 1920s roof replaced to match the neighbouring houses, scaffolding was up within a day of the keys being handed over — and the building control inspector signed off on the finished job without a murmur. That's the standard Ben holds everything to.
One thing the team is known for: recommending repairs where a repair will do. Replacing a whole roof when a section of leadwork or a few slipped tiles is all that's actually wrong is an unnecessary expense — and Ben will tell you that directly. It's the kind of honesty that builds a repeat-customer base, and it's how Trent Roofing has kept its reputation across Nottinghamshire for nearly two decades.
"Ben kept me updated throughout the job with pictures and videos so I knew exactly what was needed and how it ended up — which was really useful. Very easy to deal with and reasonably priced."

What customers say
"Our roof was still the original 100 year old roof when we moved in. It urgently needed replacing. Ben managed to get the scaffolding up within one working day of us getting the keys to the new house… The building control inspector was also impressed with the quality of the work."
"Ben is just amazing. Responded really quickly for some urgent repairs. Good clean work and did more than I had asked for. Ben kept me updated throughout the job with pictures and videos… Very easy to deal with and reasonably priced."
