Company History

Originally trading as John Flowers (Roofing Contractors) Ltd the business was formed and began trading in 1978.

Rapid growth of the business as a result of the expanding services it was offering and its growing reputation for quality workmanship resulted in demand from private sector companies.    

This marked the beginning of a period which cemented the company’s core values for competitive pricing, quality workmanship and superior customer service. Consequently this led to demand for its roofing services from a wide range of public sector bodies.

In 1991, the company changed its name to John Flowers Ltd. Since this time, John Flowers Ltd has had continuous year on year growth. This has resulted in the need to relocate three times to accommodate the growing workforce and materials necessary to maintain the superior roofing services we offer.

Today, John Flowers Ltd is located in Washington, Tyne and Wear and is a leading roofing contractor in the North East of England. The company employs a workforce of over 100 roof operatives and 14 office staff. Our customers include all major house builders, local authorities, housing associations, construction contractors, the NHS trust, MoD, HMIP, the emergency services and the general public.

Our core geographic area for roofing services in the North East of England ranges from Northumberland to Yorkshire.
