Roof repairs in Horsforth, including emergency call-outs
When a roof leaks in the middle of the night, the first job is stopping the water. The second is working out why it happened. Our roof repairs in Horsforth cover both, from emergency cover after a gale to careful repairs on the old stone cottages and the newer family homes around LS18.
Horsforth roofs come in two broad types. Older stone homes in the village usually have slate, with chimneys and lead detailing that need regular attention. Newer properties are mostly tiled, where ridge, verge and valley problems are more common.
We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergencies, on 07532 734934. Emergency repairs start from £350, with prices confirmed before work starts. We have over 20 years' experience, public liability insurance and a guarantee on all work.

Fixing roofs in Horsforth's old village and beyond
Horsforth has stone terraces and cottages in the old village and larger family homes around them. Stone homes with slate roofs sit alongside newer tiled properties, and each brings its own repair challenges. On stone cottages, slates are often laid on old timbers with little or no underlay, so a careful hand is needed. On newer houses, mortar at ridges and verges tends to crack and loosen over the years.
We repair roofs across LS18 and nearby Rawdon, Cookridge, Bramley, Calverley and Kirkstall. Horsforth is covered by our Yorkshire team, who work across Leeds, York, Malton and the surrounding towns. Older homes in conservation areas may need like-for-like materials, so check with Leeds City Council before changing anything visible.
What happens when you call us
For urgent problems, ring 07532 734934 at any hour. For everything else, call 0800 046 1159. Tell us what you have seen, such as a stain, a drip, or a slate on the ground, and we will arrange to inspect it.
We look at the roof, check the loft where we can, and show you photos of the problem. You get a written quote with no hidden fees. In an emergency we make the roof safe first, then agree the permanent repair with you.
Horsforth roof repair questions
What counts as a roofing emergency?
Water coming through a ceiling, a section of roof blown open, slates or tiles falling where people walk, or a damaged chimney that looks unstable. In those cases call 07532 734934. A single slipped slate with no leak can usually wait for a booked visit.
What does an emergency repair involve?
The first priority is to make the roof safe and watertight, for example by covering the damaged area, refixing loose materials or clearing hazards. Once the weather allows, we return to carry out a permanent repair. Emergency repairs start from £350, and prices are confirmed before any work starts.
My stone cottage roof has no felt underneath. Is that a problem?
Many older Horsforth cottages were built without underlay, relying on well-laid slates and sometimes torching on the underside. It can work for a long time, but any slipped slate lets water straight in. Repairs are still possible; if leaks keep returning, relaying with a breathable membrane is worth considering.
Why does my newer house keep losing ridge tiles?
Ridge tiles on many newer homes were bedded in mortar, which cracks with age and movement. Wind then lifts the tiles. We can rebed them, or fit a dry ridge system with mechanical fixings that does not rely on mortar.
Can you match stone slates or old slate in the village?
Usually. We measure the existing slates and source reclaimed materials to match. On village properties, reusing sound slates from less visible slopes is often the best way to get a near-perfect match on the front.
Do you repair roofs on rented houses in Horsforth?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents and can arrange access with tenants, send photos before and after, and provide written quotes for approval.
