Re: roof problems and intro
Hi Stephanie and welcome.
If you are looking for a new roof, i'd go to Car Hood Warehouse in Chessington, just off of M25
They've done two 986 roofs for me and many others on here
However, if you have other issues, maybe a local specialist,
What problem do you have ?

Re: roof problems and intro
Stephanie, as Jason said Car Hood Warehouse good for a new roof. For fixing an issue I'd suggest a quick wizz up the M4 to Ray Northway at Theale near Reading. He is a great independent & I'd use him more often if he were closer. There are a few nearer you but Ray would be my choice.
