Posted on Fraser ClarkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Past and Present team were friendly and really helpful to sort our garage roof quickly and prevent further flooding. Keith was also great to point out some other recommendations but just as advice and not pushy to force us into anything. Highly recommend.Posted on Georgie MasonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After having issues with the slates falling off my roof, I contacted past and present roofing and within the same day they were out having a look and within a couple days they were back out and fixed the missing slates, fast, reliable and excellent professional company. Would definitely recommend and will be using again if any issues ever occur with my roof again.Posted on kelly youngTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Good jobPosted on Neil ReidTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I don't normally leave feedback or reviews for contractors. Past and present roofing arrived punctually and did my guttering and tile repairs. Minimum fuss and no hard sell just did the job and left. Very pleasant and professional service I will definitely use again if needed.Posted on EH newsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Fantastic, highly recommend.Posted on KyleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had quite a number of issues with my roof, managed to get the team at P&P out and the work they carried out was brilliant! All sorted now and wouldn’t go anywhere else for any future work! Anyone in Musselburgh or surrounding areas, I’d recommend Past and Present in a heartbeat!Posted on MichaelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had the guys in recently after having a disaster trying to get a roofing company to actually show up! Came when they said and they kept me updated with what work they were doing! Both friendly and professional would 100% recommend to anyone needing a reliable roofing company to carry out work in East Lothian!
