Meet the Team
The company started in 1994 as TM Roofing, but the demand for building work was such that Trevor Martin, founder, decided to expand the business to offer the full service of roofing and building works to home owners, developers and trade associates.
TM Roofing and Building has developed an excellent reputation for quality craftsmanship and reliability, and as a result of the company's success, Trevor Martin Developments Ltd was created to provide a foot-hold for the TM brand to branch into domestic property development. Trevor Martin Developments Ltd has completed its first 2, 3 and 4 bedroom housing development in Medstead, Hampshire as well as a 3 year major re-development of Albury Park Guildford, Surrey, a Grade II listed building in Guildford, Surrey.
The TM Roofing & Building workforce consist of 50 roofers and builders who are a strong, reliable and trustworthy team, with many years of experience in their chosen specialist area. The main office and yard in Church Crookham is manned by a dedicated and experienced team of professionals, who are the voices at the end of the telephone and the welcoming faces when you visit the yard. Providing excellent customer service is a main focus for the entire team and testimonials given by customers indicate that TM Roofing and Building are definitely on the right track.
Trevor Martin - Founder and Director
After spending the first 14 years working as a self employed sub-contractor for local roofing and building companies, Trevor embarked on starting his own roofing business in 1994 after growing disillusioned by working for firms who had no time or understanding of customers, or their workers' needs. The success of this venture enabled him to expand TM Roofing and Building to create Trevor Martin Developments Ltd and TM Rallysport.
Trevor is well known in the local area for his warm personality and sense of humour. These attributes have won him many friends and have helped him to build good relationships with his workforce and customers. He gains much personal satisfaction in being able to offer clients practical advice on all alterations and building issues, and to help them turn their ideas into reality, within their own personal budget. Trevor's common-sense approach, combined with his many years' experience in roofing and building, have resulted in a company to be proud of - where customer satisfaction and top-quality finish are guaranteed.
