What We Use

The Materials Behind Every Roof

Whichever covering you choose, a roof only lasts if what's underneath it is right. This is what actually goes on to each type of roof we build — and we’ll always tell you what we’re laying before we start.

New Tiled Roofs

Stripped back and rebuilt in the right order:

Breathable membrane felt laid over the rafters, so damp can get out but rain can't get in
Treated timber battens fixed to the correct gauge for the tile you've picked
The roof tile of your choice — flat Marley, interlock concrete, clay or handmade
Dry ridge and verge system, or mortar bedded and pointed to suit the property
Eaves ventilation, new fascia boards and lead flashings where they're needed

New Slate Roofs

Natural or artificial slate, laid and detailed properly:

Breathable felt underlay with treated battens
The slate you want — Welsh, Spanish, Brazilian or fibre cement
Copper nails and slate hooks, so the fixings don't rust and run down the roof
Dry ridge, lead valleys, soakers and chimney flashings dressed by hand
Detailing at the eaves and abutments to keep water moving off the roof

Fascias, Soffits & Guttering

Rot-free, and made to suit the house:

UPVC fascias and soffits in white, or colours and woodgrain effects
Vented soffits so the roofspace can breathe and stay dry
New timber fascia boards fitted behind where the old ones have rotted
Deep-flow guttering, brackets, downpipes and drainage run to the right falls

Lead Work

Hand-dressed leadwork, not a bead of mastic:

Code 4 and Code 5 lead for flashings, valleys and chimney work
Soakers, back-rolls, apron flashings and chimney trays
Lead wedged, rolled and clipped into the joints so it can't be pulled out
Finished to the relevant standards, because lead that's done right lasts decades

Timber & Structural Repairs

Where the old timber has rotted:

Rotten rafters, purlins, battens and fascia boards cut out and replaced
New treated timber, with ply or OSB decking where a flat roof needs it
Breathable felt renewed while the roof is open
The whole frame checked for sag and made good before anything is covered over

Chimney Repointing & Capping

Weatherproofing the stack itself:

Blown and cracked mortar raked out and repointed to match the original
New flaunching formed around the pots so the tops seal properly
Bricks swapped out where spalling and frost damage have started
Cowls and caps fitted to keep rain, soot and vermin out of the flues

Talk Through Your Roof

Flat Roofing

EPDM Rubber or Torch-On Felt?

Flat roofs are the ones people get sold on price alone, then pay for twice. These are the two systems we fit, what goes into each, and where each one makes sense.

EPDM Rubber Flat Roofs

Single-piece rubber membrane

One large sheet of synthetic rubber, so there are no overlaps or seams that can split open
Laid and bonded in place, then sealed at the edges with trims and adhesive
Stays flexible in frost and in summer heat, moving with the roof instead of cracking
Lightweight, low maintenance and simple to keep clean
Long-life membrane with manufacturer-backed guarantees available — and our written guarantee on top

Torch-On Felt Flat Roofs

Three-layer torch-down system

Vapour barrier base layer, a reinforcing layer, then a mineral-flecked top sheet
Every layer torch-bonded to the one below, so the build acts as one watertight skin
The gritted top layer shields the bitumen from sun, foot traffic and wear
Fixed to a solid timber deck — new OSB or ply laid wherever the old one has gone soft
Cost-effective on garages, extensions, porches and dormers, and easy to repair locally

Not sure which one suits your roof?

Patrick looks at the deck, the falls and how the roof is actually used, then tells you straight which system will last on your building — and prices both so you can compare.

Why Roofs Fail in Lancashire

Built for Lancashire Weather

Rain, wind and frost put Lancashire roofs under more pressure than almost anywhere else in England. Every job we carry out is specified to stand up to the local climate.

Heavy Rain & Driving Wind

Lancashire sees some of the highest rainfall in England, and westerly winds drive it straight at rooflines. Worn mortar, lifted slates and tired flashings let water in fast — dry ridge and verge systems, and properly dressed lead, keep it out.

High Winds

Gusts funnel across the Pennines and over the moors, prising at ridge tiles, verges and loose slates. Mechanically fixed dry ridge and verge systems are designed to hold firm in exactly these conditions.

Frost & Freeze-Thaw

Our freeze-thaw winters crack pointing, split tiles and blow mortar joints apart. Swapping mortar for dry systems, and repointing stacks before winter, stops small cracks becoming big repairs.

Moss, Damp & Overflowing Gutters

Damp conditions grow moss that holds water against slates and washes into gutters. Regular guttering and fascia upkeep, and clearing the causes of moss, protect your roof between the seasons.

Weatherproof Your Roof

Roof Repairs & Inspections

Is Your Roof Trying to Tell You Something?

Roofs rarely fail overnight — they give warning signs first. Spotting them early keeps repair bills small. If you've noticed any of the below, speak to Patrick before the next bout of Lancashire weather makes it worse.

Missing, slipped or cracked slates and tiles after a storm
Mortar debris on the ground or moss clinging to the roof
Damp patches or stains on ceilings and loft walls
Blocked, sagging or overflowing gutters and downpipes
Cracked or missing mortar on ridge tiles, verges and chimney stacks
Daylight visible through the roof in the loft
