Under his guidance, Rich learned the trade and gained experience working for leading roofing contractors across the South Coast. Together, they completed large-scale new build developments and bespoke residential roofing projects. Following Bert’s passing in 2012, Rich and his wife Abbie established R & A Roofing Ltd in his memory. They aimed to build a roofing company founded on skilled workmanship, dependable service and genuine care for every project. Today, R & A Roofing continues to grow, with plans to open a second office to serve the South West. The values passed down by Bert remain at the heart of the company: hard work, honesty and quality. ### The People Behind the Work ## Meet the R & A Roofing Team Get to know the people who manage our projects, coordinate work on site and support our clients throughout the roofing process.
