Privacy Policy
How we handle the information you give us when you ask for a survey, a quote or an emergency call-out.
Who we are
Harding & Co. Roofing Specialists, 48 Buckfast Road, Morden, Surrey, SM4 5NB. You can reach us on 07808 839833 or at info@hardingco.co.uk. We are the data controller for the information described on this page.
What we collect
When you complete an enquiry form we collect your name, phone number, email address, postcode, the type of work you need and any details you choose to add. If you call or email us we keep a record of that correspondence. We may take photographs of your roof during a survey or while works are in progress, for quoting, record-keeping and guarantee purposes.
Why we use it
- To respond to your enquiry and arrange a survey.
- To prepare and send you a written quote and payment schedule.
- To carry out and administer any work you instruct, including guarantees.
- To keep records required for insurance, tax and legal purposes.
Our lawful basis is either your consent (when you submit an enquiry), the performance of a contract (when you instruct works), or our legitimate interest in running and recording the business properly.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your information. We share it only where necessary to deliver the work or run the business — for example with scaffolding contractors, materials suppliers, our insurer, our accountant, or the software providers who host our website, email and enquiry systems. Where the law requires it, we may disclose information to public authorities.
How long we keep it
Enquiries that do not lead to work are held for a reasonable period and then deleted. Records relating to completed works are held for the length of the applicable guarantee — up to 25 years on a new pitched roof installation and 15 years on a flat roof installation — plus any period required for tax and insurance purposes.
