When a new roof in Failsworth makes more sense than another repair
There comes a point with every roof where you're paying for repairs more often than makes sense. Slates keep slipping, tiles keep cracking, the felt underneath has turned to dust. That's when a new roof in Failsworth stops being a big expense and starts being the sensible option.
A re-roof isn't just new tiles. We strip the old covering back to the rafters, check and repair the timbers, lay a breathable membrane, fit new treated battens and then the new slate or tile. Ridges and verges are finished with a dry-fix system so there's no mortar to crumble away in future.
We've been re-roofing homes for over 20 years. Every job is fully insured and guaranteed, and surveys and quotes are free.

What's included in a new roof
Strip and inspect
Old covering, felt and battens removed so we can check every rafter before anything goes back.
Membrane and battens
Breathable underlay and new treated battens to give the roof a sound, dry base.
Slate or tile covering
Natural slate, reclaimed slate or modern tiles, chosen to suit the house and budget.
Dry ridge and verge
Mechanically fixed ridges and verges that won't need repointing in a few years.
Re-roofing Failsworth's terraces, semis and estate homes
A lot of the replacement work we price in Failsworth falls into two groups. Older slate terraces where the original slates and nails have reached the end, and post-war or inter-war homes on concrete tiles that were laid without a modern membrane. On terraces, choosing slate or a close-matching alternative keeps the row looking consistent. On semis and estate homes, there's more freedom to pick a tile that suits your taste.
We replace roofs throughout M35, as well as in Woodhouses, Droylsden, Moston, Newton Heath and Hollinwood. Failsworth sits roughly 3 miles from our Swan Street office, so getting a roofer out to you is rarely a problem.
Costs and timing for a Failsworth re-roof
The price depends on the roof's size and pitch, whether it's hipped or gabled, the covering you choose, how many chimneys and valleys there are, and the scaffolding needed. A mid-terrace is a very different job from a detached house. That's why we survey first and give a written, itemised quote rather than a guess over the phone.
Most house re-roofs take 2 to 5 days depending on size and weather. We keep the roof weathertight at the end of every day, so you're never left exposed overnight.
New roof FAQs for Failsworth
How do I know if I need a new roof or just repairs?
Signs pointing to replacement include widespread slipped slates, lots of cracked or porous tiles, sagging, felt that has rotted away in the loft, and repeated leaks in different places. If the problems are isolated, repairs are better value. We'll show you photos from the survey so you can see the condition for yourself.
Can I change from concrete tiles to slate?
Often, yes, and some owners of older Failsworth houses choose to go back to slate. We'll check the timbers can take the covering and that the pitch suits it. Slate is a lighter material than concrete tile, so it's rarely a structural problem, but it's always checked.
Do I need permission to replace my roof?
Like-for-like re-roofing usually doesn't need planning permission. If you're changing the look significantly, or if your home is in a conservation area, it's wise to check with Oldham Council first. Building regulations can apply to re-roofs, and we'll talk you through what's relevant.
What happens if you find rotten timbers?
We'll stop, show you the damage and explain what's needed before doing anything extra. Small areas of rot are usually straightforward to cut out and replace. Any additional cost is agreed with you first, so there are no surprises on the final bill.
Can you replace the roof on one half of a semi?
Yes. Many Failsworth semis have one side re-roofed while next door keeps theirs. We'll make a neat, watertight join at the party wall and choose a covering that sits well alongside your neighbour's roof.
Will you replace the guttering and fascias at the same time?
It's often worth it, since the scaffolding is already up. If your fascias or gutters are tired, doing them alongside the re-roof saves a separate job later. We'll include it as an option in the quote so you can decide.
