Roof leaking? We will make it safe, fast.
Our own roofing crews, with a 24 hour emergency line across Lancashire. Leaks, slipped slates, blocked gutters and storm damage made watertight first, then repaired properly.
Request a call back
Tell us what is happening and a roofer will ring you back. If water is coming in now, call us instead.
Repairs, maintenance and prevention
From one slipped slate to a full re felt, the same crews do the work, and every job gets photographs and a written note of what we found.
Water coming through a ceiling, a chimney breast or a roof light. We trace the cause, make it watertight and then fix it properly.
Report a leak →Gutters cleared, flushed and checked for falls, joints and brackets, so the water goes where it should instead of down your walls.
New seamless gutters →Blocked hoppers, split downpipes and gullies that back up in heavy rain. Cleared, repaired or replaced, with outlets sized for the roof.
Ask about drainage →Old bitumen felt that has perished under the slates, or a tired felt flat roof. Stripped back and re felted with breathable membrane.
Get a re felt quote →Lead and mortar flashings at chimneys, walls and roof lights re dressed, re pointed or sealed, where most leaks actually start.
Book a repair →Slipped, cracked and missing slates replaced and matched, ridges and hips re bedded, valleys relined. Natural slate is the East Lancashire roof.
Book a repair →A planned check of slates, ridges, flashings and gutters before winter, with photographs, so small faults are fixed before they leak.
See the yearly plan →Lofts topped up and failed flat roofs rebuilt as warm roofs. Flat roof insulation is our PAS 2030:2023 certified measure.
Flat roof insulation →We can inspect many roofs from the air, so you see close up photographs of the slates, ridge and chimney without a ladder or scaffold.

Problems we fix
Most leaks start with something small. If you can see any of these from the street or the loft, call us before the next downpour.
Slipped and missing slatesRefixed, replaced and matched to the slates around them.
Water through the ceilingMade safe first, then traced to the cause and repaired.
Chimneys and flashingsLead re dressed, joints sealed, stacks re pointed.
Moss and blocked lapsCleared before it lifts tiles and blocks the gutters.
Overflowing roof edgesGutters cleared, refixed or replaced with seamless runs.Stock photographs (Unsplash), shown to illustrate common faults. They are not photographs of our customers’ homes.
How a call out works
An emergency visit stops the water. The permanent repair is quoted in writing once we can see the whole roof, so you are never pushed into a big job in the middle of a storm.
In working hours you speak to our team. Out of hours our answering service takes your details and passes them straight to us.
Temporary cover, sheeting or a holding repair to stop the water and protect the inside of your home.
Photographs and a written note of the cause and the damage, useful if you are making an insurance claim.
An itemised quote with access and making good included, then our crew carries out the permanent fix.
Drone roof surveys
Many roof faults cannot be seen from the street. Where it is safe and permitted, we fly a camera drone over the roof and show you what we find.
Maintenance and prevention
A blocked gutter becomes a damp wall, a cracked flashing becomes a ceiling stain. A planned visit once or twice a year catches them early.

Where we work
Stone terraces with slate roofs, gritstone chimneys, flat roofed extensions and newer estates, in all the weather the Pennines throw at them. East Lancashire is where most of our roofing work is.
Our 24 hour emergency line covers the rest of Lancashire too, including:
Gutters keep overflowing
If your gutters keep blocking, sagging or leaking at the joints, it may be time to replace them. We fit seamless aluminium guttering, formed on site to the exact length of each run, so there are no joints along the front of the house to leak.

Housing provider or contractor? Retrofit sub contracting →
The same crews and the same standards, whether it is a leaking flat roof over your kitchen or every roof on a housing scheme.
Most roofing calls start with a leak or a cold room under a flat roof. We survey first and tell you whether it is a repair, a new covering, or a warm roof that fixes the damp and the heat loss together.
Flat roof insulation is our PAS 2030 certified measure, which is what funded retrofit programmes need from the installer of record. We deliver it as a package, on our own or as a subcontractor to your principal contractor.
Torentum Court is Regenda Homes’ independent living scheme in Fleetwood, and the roofs were the first package in a £700,000 energy efficiency programme. We surveyed each roof, priced them individually, rebuilt all fifteen as warm roofs and lifted and reinstated 179 metres of tiles where they meet the pitched sections.
A garage, a rear extension and an L shaped wraparound, each rebuilt as a warm roof with 140 mm of PIR above the joists, a new OSB deck and an EPDM rubber finish. One or two days each, every layer photographed, and an Insurance Backed Guarantee issued by Energy Giants on completion.
Vapour control layer, 140 mm of PIR, new OSB deck, EPDM rubber and new fascias, between lunchtime and teatime.

FAQs
Yes. Call 01200 407790 at any time, day or night. Out of hours our answering service takes your name, number and what is happening and sends it straight to our team, who get back to you. If water is getting in, we prioritise making the roof safe and watertight, then arrange the permanent repair.
We find where the water is getting in and stop it, with temporary cover, sheeting or a holding repair. You get photographs and a note of what we found, then a written quote for the permanent repair. You are not asked to agree a big job on the night.
We cannot deal with your insurer for you, but our photographs and written report of the cause and the damage are the evidence most insurers ask for. Check your policy and tell your insurer as soon as you can.
If the covering is sound and the deck is dry, a repair is the honest answer and we will say so. When a roof is beyond repair, the survey photographs show you why before you commit to anything.
Yes. We clear, flush and repair gutters, hoppers and downpipes, and check the falls and brackets. If they keep failing, we can replace them with seamless aluminium guttering.
We fly a camera drone over the roof to photograph the slates, ridge, chimney and gutters close up, without a ladder or scaffold. We fly in daylight and sensible weather, and footage is only used for your survey unless you agree otherwise in writing.
