Excellent work.
Having waited for months for "my Slater" to check the cast iron gutters before the painter started, along with some general tidy up of cracked and missing slates. I phoned Wanye on a Thursday around 6:00pm. I had a quote through the letterbox on Friday and called to accept and give go ahead on the Friday evening. All done within a week - and that included a holiday weekend! Additional "bits" attended to promptly and without fuss. Follow up work identified (genuine work not any kind of job creation stuff) and "booked for a dry day". Very happy with work and customer service and obviously delighted with response time. I have a different number stored under 'Slater' now!

HAD WAYNE OUT TO CARRY A FEW REPAIRS TO MY ROOF
LAST WEEK AFTER WE SAW A FEW DAMP PATCHES !!
WAYNE HAS CARRIED OUT A FEW JOBS FOR ME IN THE PAST
AND ALL DONE WELL
I called Wayne on Thursday evening regarding an issue we had been having with a leaky roof. He came out first thing the next day, identified the problem and took pictures for us to see. He came back on the Sunday to fix the problem (had to wait for parts to be ordered) and took further pictures to show us the problem resolved.
The whole process was simple, efficient and he was obviously very knowledgeable in his field meaning we have every trust in him. I would highly recommend Wayne for his professionalism and customer service.
Very prompt service from coming to view the work required and providing an estimate. The work was carried out quickly and to an excellent standard. Highly recommend Wayne.
I had a variety of jobs (woodwork, gutter installation, rendering, replacement of skylight) all of which Wayne completed to a high standard and promptly. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him to do work and he would be the first person i would call if I had further works. Thanks for a great job.
After all the bad weather I had a few leaks. !!
Wayne came out and sorted them within 4 hours of calling him
And worked into the early evening to complete the work
Job well done
Wayne responded quickly to a cry for help to fix a tenant's leaking roof. He arrived to inspect the damage within 3 hours, did a quick temporary fix and returned within the hour with materials to do a permanent repair, all at reasonable cost. I was so impressed I asked him to check for other potential problem tiles. He gave a very fair quote and returned (to my surprise) later the same day to complete the work. He was very punctual, explained issues simply and clearly, and did a good job very quickly. Delighted with the service and would certainly use again.
As a busy aberdeen property owner living in edinburgh who needs to get things fixed properly and quickly I was delighted to make contact with Wayne Combe. Just by contact on the phone he was able to fix and clear guttering within a week of contact.
His cost was very reasonable and my tenant was delighted with wayne's customer service as well as his workmanship.
came to see my job and provided estimate within 2 days
work was carried out within a 7 day time scale
well done wayne

Great service, very friendly and understanding. Quote given the next day and work carried out and completed on a Sunday. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a slater. Very pleased with service and will use again.
Wayne was very prompt in arranging site visit, providing quote and completing job. Workmanship that I can recommend and no mess left afterwards. A tradesman you can rely on.
Only scored 9.5 on value for money coz I'm used to doing most jobs around the house myself. However some I'm realising (like the chimney pot and repointing) are beyond my reach (litterally).
I have more roofing/pointing jobs on the horizon and anticipate Wayne will be doing them!
Recommended!
Wayne gave us a very competitive quote after I had been trying to find a slater. Roof repair and concerns were met and executed promptly! Would recommend. Husband very happy with level of service.
I would definitely recommend Wayne. He was very quick in providing an estimate and did the work a couple of days later. The work he has done is also of a great standard and he makes good recommendations!
Thanks Wayne!
Wayne made an excellent job of fixing our roof and repairing our pointing, would definitely recommend him. Competitive price, reliable and a good job done, thanks Wayne!
We needed to get our roof sorted for selling our property and Wayne did the work the very next day! Very reliable, Good job done and very competitive price. I would recommend Wayne to do any work on your property!
Wayne did some repair work on my roof in October last year. Good price and work done promptly - very pleased - thank you!
I contacted Wayne after being let down by another slater. Wayne got back to me that same day and quoted both jobs cheaper than my original quote and explained the reason for the problems I had a been having. I was very impressed at Wayne's prompt and thorough work and he came across as friendly and trustworthy. I have already passed on Wayne's number to my parents who require a slater and would urge anyone who requires a prompt, thorough and very competitively priced job to look no further than Wayne.
Wayne was recommended by a colleague, after having been let down by a roofer to replace some missing slates and repair a damaged skew. On acceptance of the quotation, Wayne arrived later the same day to start the job and completed the work the following day. I was impressed with Wayne's level of service, especially his punctuality and would recommend him to anyone.
Phoned Wayne in the morning about a couple of tiles removed by wind on extension roof, job done, tiles re-secured and new tile supplied by late afternoon. Great job and very reasonable price. Would definitely use Wayne again!
After recents storms several slates and dry verge had been blown off my house roof which in turn damaged garage roof. After a week an insurance assessor came out and estimated the value of damage. He said we would be quicker to organise the repair ourselves. The first slater we called came around and had a look telling me that he could give a quote however could not carry out the repair to February 2012. I then checked the Rated People Website and was put in touch with Wayne. He contacted me,gave me a quote and carried out the repair the same day. He also replaced guttering which I had been struggling to get repaired for months. I have kept Wayne's number and will contact him again if I have any other roofing problems. his price was reasonable as well.
Excellent service from Wayne. Having been let down by two other roofers, (who do not feature on TA I should add), I contacted Wayne through the TA website. He came round that same day to give me a quote and came the next day to carry out the work, even though I know he was up to his eyes with other storm damage work. Many thanks Wayne. Excellent service. The only complaint might come from Santa as he will now have to come down the chimney as he does every other year, rather than come through the gaping hole in the roof that Wayne has now fixed. Thanks again Wayne.
We had only been in our (first) house for 2 weeks when the recent storms blew a tile off so the prospect of finding a tiler was rather daunting, but Wayne was recommended to me by a colleague and the process couldn't have been much easier. Wayne came out within hours of calling, and I didn't even need to leave the office - he returned to collect his payment after I finished work. Very reasonably priced and stress free.
After recent storms quite a few tiles were blown off my roof, I contacted my insurance company who advised it would be at least 48hrs before an assessor could come round to assess the damage. This was unacceptable for a roof with tiles missing and other loose tiles still on the roof that could fall at any time. I contacted Wayne who came round that day for a look and the job was completed within 2 days. When the assessor from the insurance company called he got told where to go stick it :-) Thanks Wayne for a great quick job done!
Wayne undertook some guttering cleaning and repairs at my property in August 2011. Wayne was able to attend and carry out the work soon after I accepted the quotation and the work was completed quickly and efficiently. A small item was missed on the first visit, however this was rectified quickly when Wayne was advised. Overall I am very happy with the standard of work carried out.
Recent storm blew off a ridge slate. The next morning I called Wayne and we met in few hours. He inspected the damage proposed new slate / colour and finished the job as agreed later that afternoon. I was very happy as the job was completed immediately and reasonably priced. As I have a problem with gutter from before, I asked Wayne to sort that out also - waiting for quote now. Definately recommend Wayne!
A fast response. reliable and competitive service.Cleared gutters on my house and my mum's property.Good to find tradesman willing to carry out smaller tasks.I would not hesitate to use him for any future roofing work i may require in the future.
after reading waynes reviews on this web site i gave him a call to look at a long term problem with my roof!!
wayne came out and gave me a free estimate for the work required and even took some pictures of the work he carried out on my property , this work was done over a few weeks ago and i waited for some rain to check the work done (no leaks now) very happy now all problems are sorted would call him out again if i have any future work
many thanxs again for all your help allan
Diagnosed the problem and came up with a good solution.
Did what he said he would do within timescale.
No nonsense and job done!
Due to other slaters not turning up, I got Wayne to clean out my gutters after finished my friends next door. Job well done.
Very prompt service through out. Came out on the tuesday, identified the problem and fixed the leak. Very reasonable priced, highly recommended.
Wayne came to my rescue when I had a leak in my roof. He came out to see me when he said he would, was most helpful and very pleasant. I would recommend Wayne to anyone who requires roof work done.
Wayne did a great job, turned up on time and was very pleasent to deal with.
Having already unsuccessfully had a tradesman out to trace the root cause of dampness in my flat I was surprised when Wayne diagnosed the problem instantly but full credit to him, he removed and replaced the skew a few months ago and the wall is now completely dry.
Had to wait a wee while for him to come round but when he did come round he worked on till 9pm on a Sunday night as the forecast was poor for the following few days.
Wouldn't hesitate to get him back.
Amazing value for money- get exactly what you pay for unlike alot of other companies i had quotes from. Very helpful with any questions and work carried out with no problems at all. Would definately use Wayne again.
This is the second time i have used Wayne for cleaning out the gutterings and would totally recommend his services. He provided a quote on the same day i made contact and carried out the job the next day. As we stay in a tenament block of flats, we have had previously had extortionate quotes from other slaters. This was a very fair quote and work well done.
Very good work, efficiently and timely carried out. We would have no hesitation in recommending Wayne and would certainly use him in the future.
very good work and under the estimate provided
We have no hesitation in awarding ten out of ten to Wayne.
At the start of the process we were very wary as we had just been ripped off by a supposedly highly recommended company who actually botched our garage roof repair and refused to sort things out. We are landlords of a property in Westhill but reside in the Netherlands.
Wayne was superb. He answered all our queries, initially by telephone then confirmed them by email to both ourselves and our estate agent. He then liaised with all 3 parties in order to replace the entire garage roof. The work was carried out efficiently and on the dates stated by Wayne. He also sent us photos of the completed work and gave us a written guarantee.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Wayne and will certainly use him in the future.
Very quick to respond. Job well done and very reasonably priced. Even carried a small extra job for me all for the original price quoted. Would recommend to others.
Wayne was very professional throughout would highly recommend, quote returned and job done promptly!
Would use Wayne again if required in the future.
Wayne was recommended to me by a work colleague and he met all expectations. He did a job for me promptly and as a result I also used him again for some further roof repairs. Absolutely no hesitation in using him again and referring him to anyone else needing roof work done.
Wayne previously carried out repairs on our roof by removing a skylight window. As he did a good job and had identified (in line with our house purchase survey) a problem with the chimney stacks - cracks in the cement - we got him to carry out this additional repair work. Wayne did this over a couple of visits. He was extremely neat and tidy in his work and we are very pleased with the repairs. We also appreciated that he let us know of a wasp bike which prevented him from conducting the work and happily returned after we had killed the wasps off with no additional charge for his time.
Once again, we'd recommend Wayne to anyone looking for a good slater/roofer.
Very happy with the service - he was very quick to return calls, arrange quotations and complete the work. Would recommend him to others and will use him again in future. Thanks again Wayne.
I'm a landlord with a number of properties in Aberdeen. I have used Wayne on a number of jobs and have found him to be reliable and hard working. All work was carried out to a high standard and he sent through pictures at each stage when required. I will continue to use him in the future and have no problem in recommending him to others.
I will use Wayne again. He arrived promptly, quoted for the job and started soon after. Great work done, photographs produced of work which was a good. Thanks Wayne :)
Wayne was prompt at returning our call, coming and looking at the problem, sending us a quote and getting the job done. All in all a good experience.
