That's fine by me Less.

Re: In search of a ACR
 

Got a bit fed up reading all the replies, many of which didn't seem to answer your question. My apologies if I'm now giving you information which is already in one of the responses. ACR was a roofing firm that was run by Cliff Davenport, who was a great chap. He had a good set of lads working for him and as far as I know always did a professional and competent job. He did some vertical tiling and some flat roof work (built up felt) for me which lasted over 25 years. The flat roof was still not leaking when I had it replaced because some of the felt edges were beginning to age and crack. Unfortunately Cliff retired many years ago and as far as I know, the company stopped trading. I'm afraid you will not be able to get this company back to check your roof. I hope this answers your original question.

At last a sensible and helpful answer to a simple question,what a pity it took a junior member to send it instead of all the completely unwarranted venom and mistrust right from the first response.

Re: In search of a ACR
 

Point taken Dave but we might have been waiting a long time for that answer. Superwhite's last post was last September.

Re: In search of a ACR
 

I take your point also Susie but just as some people seem to spend most of their day on here some others are more casual(for the want of a better word) members and contribute only when a relevent topic arises and they have something to add to that
topic.Both have the same right whether a senior member or a junior and should be afforded the same respect until it transpires that respect is not warrented.Surely ??
Rant over!!

Re: In search of a ACR
 

OK Dave, just speculating as to whether the responder may not have been online at all since the thread started and hence any reply would be a bit late or out of date. The relevant topic arose some weeks before the reply but of course all members should have the same respect if warranted.

Think we both know what we mean. Actually it's good to see that someone does have some concrete information about this, even if it may not be what the thread starter was hoping for.

BTW if you have noticed that I am one of those who seem to spend most of their day on here, it's because I'm not well, unable to do much else sometimes, and bored. Accyweb has been a great help to me in overcoming this, I'm not here for any other reason.

Exactly Susie the site suits you for what you need it for and that what matters

Holy feces Batperson, another Moses has arrived to lead us from the wasteland of our ignorance and error into the Promised Land of god-knows-what:rolleyes:

Re: In search of a ACR
 

So more junior members arn't allowed to post an opnion ??

Re: In search of a ACR
 

You can post as many opinions as you like, just don't expect everyone to take them with more than the minimum pinch of salt.

I think you will find we get a few junior members on a regular basis that want the site to be run their way, the site and it's members are diverse, what is wrong about it for you may just be perfect for others.

Re: In search of a ACR
 

Thank you, superwhite. I can start looking for an alternative roofing firm now. Your experience of ACR sounds similar to mine.
In deference to Less, I won't be asking for recommendations of alternative roofers on here. I'll just leave the thread to be viewed by others to make up their minds whether there is a lesson to be learned on how members treat each other.
I think Big Dave will see my point. Thanks for your contribution.

Got it in one there, bud. Senior members ... sounds better than owd farts;) ... emerged fully developed from the forehead of Wisdom. There was no tentative testing of toes in the murky waters of AccyWeb. We were not born; we were created. We don't post opinions; we speak Truth.:alright: Get used to it.

By the way, forget about cliques. There are none ... well, apart from the Fellowship of the Hat:dancedog:. There is merely the infallible host of the Wise ... oh, and C'mon;):D
