Tackling Rogue Roofers, One Trusted Tradesperson at a Time
Roofing Protection Scheme was born from a simple mission: to protect homeowners from unscrupulous traders and connect them with verified, trustworthy roofing professionals.
Why We Started Roofing Protection Scheme
Every year, thousands of UK homeowners fall victim to rogue traders in the roofing industry. From shoddy workmanship to traders who take deposits and disappear, the stories are all too common — and devastating.
We founded Roofing Protection Scheme because we believed there had to be a better way. A way for homeowners to find genuinely trustworthy roofers, backed by real protection if things go wrong.
Our optional RPS Protection isn't just a marketing promise — it's real, independently inspected protection on eligible work. Every roofer in our network has been thoroughly vetted, their work is monitored through customer feedback, and customers can choose to add protection on eligible jobs.
We're not just building a directory. We're building trust in an industry that desperately needs it.
The Problem We're Solving
Rogue roofers cause misery for homeowners every day. Here's what we're fighting against:
Deposit Theft
Traders who take large deposits upfront, then disappear without doing any work, leaving homeowners out of pocket and without recourse.
Substandard Work
Poor quality repairs that fail within months, causing leaks, structural damage, and the need for costly re-work by legitimate professionals.
No Accountability
Unregistered traders who can't be traced when problems arise, leaving homeowners with no way to get issues resolved or money refunded.
