Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists in short
Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists is a Telford flat roof specialist with a dedicated page for each of its three systems, EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and felt, carrying guarantees of up to twenty-five years. That system-by-system openness is what sets this review apart: full public liability and employers' liability cover is stated on the same pages, and Confederation of Roofing Contractors registration sits on the issuing register. Few rivals in this round put systems, guarantees, cover and registration together in one place.
Customers rate the firm at full marks on Google, and the limited company behind the name has been trading for years from Stafford Park, serving Telford and Shrewsbury. What counts against Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists, in our judgement, is the blank where prices should be: no rates, call-out fee or VAT position are published, so the free quote does all the talking.
The record shows a Stafford Park firm working across Telford and Shrewsbury, with each of its three flat-roof systems given its own service page alongside the wider building work [1] [2]. That system-by-system layout, rubber, fibreglass and felt each explained separately, reads like a specialist shop rather than a general builder with roofing on the side. Two phone numbers and a quotation route sit on the site, so the way in is written rather than verbal [1].
The customer evidence sits on a single Google listing, with no second platform beside it [5]. Against rivals holding two sources, that single-source picture is thinner, though the trade-body registration and stated cover fill in around it [4] [2]. In our judgement the reviews back the systems story rather than complicate it.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Severnside suits you if the job is a flat roof and you want the systems, the guarantees and the insurance stated up front [2]. EPDM, GRP and felt each get their own page, and the review record is full marks [2] [5]. What counts against it is no published rates, with pricing left to the free quote [1] [2].

Questions about Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists
Is Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists any good?
On the evidence, yes for flat roofs: it leads our Telford table, holds full marks on Google, and states its systems, guarantees and cover in writing where rivals state nothing. The gap is published prices, with everything left to the free quote. Send the roof size and system through the quote route for an itemised figure.
Is Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists registered with a roofing scheme?
What does Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists charge?
Where does Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists work?
The firm works across Telford and Shrewsbury from its Stafford Park base, covering domestic flat-roof jobs in rubber, fibreglass and felt [1]. If you sit outside those towns, send your postcode with the job list through the quote route to confirm you are covered.
How is Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists ranked?
It ranks first of the ten flat roof specialists in our September round, chosen as the best overall pick for stated systems, long guarantees and cover in writing. It publishes no prices, so read the guarantee terms beside the score. Read the full review, then ask for the itemised quote.
How do I get a quote from Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists?
Use the quotation route on the firm's site and send the roof size, the system you want and photos of the deck access [1]. Stating rubber, fibreglass or felt up front gets you a like-for-like figure, since each system carries its own guarantee terms [2]. Ask for labour, materials and VAT split out, and read the guarantee terms beside the figure before you agree anything.
What do reviews say about Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists?
The whole review record sits on one Google listing, where customers rate the firm at full marks [5]. A single-source picture is thinner than the dual-source backing some rivals hold, but the trade-body registration and stated cover fill in around it [4] [2]. Read the listing for recent flat-roof jobs like yours, then weigh the written guarantees beside the praise.
How does Severnside Roofing & Building Specialists compare with the others in this round?
It leads the table as the only firm pairing three stated systems with long guarantees, stated cover and registration on the issuing register [2] [4]. Chasers beat it on review depth or award shelves, but none puts systems, guarantees, cover and registration together in one place. The gap is published prices: everything runs through the free quote [1] [2].
