Areas we cover
Pitched Roofing across Walkden and nearby
Walkden grew up as a coal mining town, and its oldest housing is the rows of brick terraces built in the years when the pits were working. Roofs of that age are typically slate, with brick chimney stacks and lead flashing that have been in place for a very long time.
We are based at 91a Walkden Road in Walkden, so Worsley, Little Hulton, Boothstown, Swinton and Farnworth are all a short drive.

FAQ
Pitched Roofing: common questions
What is a pitched roof?
A sloping roof covered in tiles or slates, as opposed to a flat roof.
Can a pitched roof be repaired, or does it need replacing?
If the felt and battens are sound, replacing the damaged tiles or slates is usually enough. When the covering is failing across the roof, a re-roof is the lasting fix.
Tile or slate: which should I choose?
We usually match what the house and its neighbours already have. We quote for the options that suit your roof and budget.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the roof, the access and what we find. We inspect for free and give you a fixed written price before any work starts.
Do you charge for the quote?
No. Inspections and written quotes are free, with no obligation.
