Re-roof or new roof in Hyde: what's involved
Lots of people in Hyde start searching for a re-roof once the repair bills begin to add up. A new roof in Hyde means stripping the old covering, checking the timbers, laying breathable membrane and new battens, and fitting new or reclaimed slate or tiles with secure, modern fixings.
On the hillside homes towards Werneth Low we take extra care with fixings, ridges and verges, because an exposed roof is where weak details get found out first. Mechanically fixed dry ridge and verge systems are a sensible choice on those streets.
Surveys and quotes are free. We've been roofing for over 20 years, are fully insured and guarantee all our work.

What a new roof includes
Strip and inspect
Old covering, battens and underlay removed, and roof timbers checked once they're exposed.
Membrane and battens
Breathable membrane and new treated battens to give the new roof a sound base.
Slate or tiles
New or reclaimed slate, or concrete or clay tiles, fixed to suit the house and exposure.
Dry ridge and verge
Mechanically fixed ridges and verges that hold up far better in high wind.
Re-roofing Hyde's terraces, semis and estates
Hyde's stone and brick terraces often have slate roofs that have reached the end of their nails and underlay. Inter-war semis are usually tiled, with hips, bays and porches to work around. Even newer estate homes sometimes need re-roofing where original fixings or mortar ridges have failed. Many homes on the hillside towards Werneth Low face more wind and rain, so we specify fixings with that exposure in mind.
We replace roofs across SK14, including Gee Cross, Newton, Godley, Flowery Field, Dukinfield and Denton. Hyde sits roughly 7 miles from our Swan Street office, so getting a roofer out to you is rarely a problem. In a conservation area, check with Tameside Council before changing roof materials.
Timescales and guide costs
A typical house re-roof takes 2 to 5 days, depending on size, shape and weather. A simple terrace roof is quicker than a hipped semi with a porch and bay. We make the roof weathertight at the end of each working day.
The cost depends on roof size, the covering you choose, scaffolding and extras such as chimney work or new guttering. A single price for every house would be misleading, so after a free survey you'll get an itemised written quote showing exactly what's included.
Re-roofing FAQs for Hyde
How do I know if my Hyde home needs a re-roof?
Repeated repairs, more than one leak, daylight visible in the loft, torn or sagging underlay and slates slipping across the whole roof all point towards a re-roof. One problem on its own usually doesn't. We'll inspect the roof and loft and give you an honest view of whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
Can my existing slates be reused?
If they're sound, yes. Reusing good slate keeps the character of an older house and can reduce costs. We sort slates as we strip, keep the best for the most visible slopes and make up any shortfall with matching reclaimed or new slate. Flaking or cracked slates are discarded.
Will a new roof stand up better to the wind?
Yes. Modern fixings, breathable membrane and dry ridge and verge systems make a roof much more secure than old mortar-bedded details on rusting nails. That matters on exposed streets near Werneth Low, where a weak ridge or verge is often the first thing to go in a storm.
Do I need planning permission to re-roof in Hyde?
Like-for-like re-roofing generally doesn't need planning permission. Changing materials significantly, altering the shape or living in a conservation area may, so check with Tameside Council first. Building regulations can apply to re-roofing, and we'll explain what's relevant for your property.
Can I stay in the house while the roof is replaced?
Yes, almost everyone does. There's noise and some dust in the loft while the old roof comes off, so it's worth clearing anything stored up there. We keep the roof covered overnight and work to get it watertight as quickly as the weather allows.
What happens if the timbers are damaged?
Once the roof is stripped, we check the rafters, wall plates and timbers around any chimney. If anything needs repair or replacing, we'll show you, explain the options and agree the cost with you before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
