Where the work comes from

How introductions work for a roofer

Your best referrals don’t often come from online marketing. They come from businesses who regularly talk to homeowners, landlords and commercial owners – usually right at a storm, a leak or a survey report. This is why builders, building surveyors and letting agents are strong allies for any roofer, in Ongar or anywhere in Essex.

Getting there from Ongar

Ongar is a historic market town with a long, independent High Street, the Epping Ongar heritage railway and, close by, Greensted’s church, said to be the oldest wooden church in the world.
Ongar is about 15 minutes from the meeting along the A128.
By train: Ongar has no mainline station, so most members drive in; Brentwood and Shenfield stations are the nearest.
