Roof replacement in Leeds when repairs stop making sense
There comes a point where patching an old roof costs more over a few years than replacing it. Our roof replacement in Leeds service is for that point: a complete strip back to the rafters, new breathable membrane and treated battens, then new slate or tiles finished with modern dry ridge and verge systems.
Common reasons people in Leeds call us for a new roof are slates slipping all over the slope as old nails corrode, concrete tiles that have gone soft and porous, sagging rooflines, or a loft that is wet after every storm despite repeated repairs.
Every re-roof starts with a free survey, and you'll get a written quote with no hidden fees. All work is guaranteed.

What a new roof includes
Strip and inspect
Old coverings removed and rafters checked, with any rotten timber pointed out before it's covered.
Membrane and battens
Breathable underlay and new treated battens laid to the right gauge for the chosen slate or tile.
Slate or tile covering
Natural slate, reclaimed slate or tiles chosen to suit the house and its street.
Dry ridge and verge
Mechanically fixed ridges and verges that don't rely on mortar that cracks and washes out.
Re-roofing Leeds homes of every age
Many Leeds terraces still have their original slate roofs, often more than a century old. Even where slates look sound, the nails holding them have rusted through, which is why slipping slates appear all over the roof at once. Inter-war semis in Horsforth, Pudsey and Roundhay frequently have first or second generation concrete tiles that have reached the end of their life. And large villas in Headingley and Chapel Allerton can be complex re-roofs with multiple valleys, hips and dormers.
We replace roofs across LS1 to LS29, including Armley, Beeston, Chapel Allerton and Roundhay, as well as nearby Bradford, Wakefield, Batley and Dewsbury. Leeds is covered by our Yorkshire team, who work across Leeds, York, Malton and the surrounding towns.
Timescales and guide costs
A typical house re-roof usually takes 2 to 5 days, depending on the size of the roof and the weather. A small terrace sits at the shorter end; a large semi or villa with hips and dormers takes longer. We keep the roof protected at the end of every working day.
Cost depends on roof size, access, the covering you choose and whether chimneys or roofline need work at the same time. We don't quote prices blind, but after a free survey you'll have a fixed written price, so you know where you stand before anything is booked.
Roof replacement questions in Leeds
Can I swap slate for concrete tiles on my Leeds terrace?
It's possible on some houses, but concrete tiles are much heavier than slate and change how the street looks. On a terrace where neighbours have slate, it can look out of place, and in a conservation area Leeds City Council may object. We'll advise on what suits the timbers and the street.
Do I need planning permission to replace my roof?
Like-for-like re-roofing usually doesn't need planning permission. Changing materials, raising the roof or working on a listed building or in a conservation area can be different. If you're unsure, check with Leeds City Council before work starts and we can help you with the details.
Can you reuse my old slates?
If the slates are sound, they can be stripped carefully, sorted and refixed with new nails or clips, topped up with reclaimed slates where needed. If many are flaking or soft, new slate gives a longer-lasting result. We assess this on the survey.
Will a new roof include the chimney and gutters?
Only if you want it to. Because scaffolding is up anyway, many people have chimney repointing, new flashing or new guttering done at the same time, which saves setting up access again later. We'll quote these as separate items so you can choose.
What happens if it rains while my roof is off?
We strip only as much as can be covered again that day, and keep exposed areas weathered with membrane and sheeting overnight. If heavy rain is forecast, we'll plan the work around it rather than open up the roof.
Can you replace the garage roof at the same time?
Yes. Garage roofs in Leeds are often flat felt, or old asbestos cement sheets that need specialist handling. We can quote for a new flat roof or replacement sheeting alongside the main house so it's all done in one visit.
