Re Roofing in Trawden, Lancashire

Most homeowners we chat with tell us the same thing: they've been trying to ignore a leak for months, hoping a quick repair would do the trick. But there comes a point where those small fixes just aren't enough. Have you noticed daylight peeking through the rafters in your loft? Or maybe you're finding bits of grit and broken slate in your gutters after every storm? These are often the first signs that the underlying felt has perished or the nails have finally given up the ghost. While a repair is great for a slipped tile, a full re-roof is often the most sensible way to protect your biggest investment and give you total peace of mind when the Lancashire clouds turn grey.

Whether you live in a traditional stone cottage near Wycoller or a more modern family home in the heart of the village, your roof needs to look the part. We don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. For our older Trawden properties, natural slate is often the go-to choice—it's incredibly durable and keeps that classic heritage look. If you have a more recent build, we can source high-quality clay or concrete tiles in colours that blend perfectly with the local landscape. For those tricky flat roofs on extensions or garages, we install modern GRP fibreglass and EPDM rubber systems. These aren't like the old felt roofs your grandad had; they're seamless, tough, and designed to last for thirty years or more without a hitch.

Did you know that a re-roof is one of the best times to make your home more comfortable? When we strip back your old roof, we don't just put new tiles on top. We also look at your insulation. Under current Part L Building Regulations, we’re required to upgrade your thermal protection if we’re replacing more than half of the roof area. It’s actually a brilliant opportunity for you. By installing modern breathable membranes and high-spec insulation, we help trap the heat where it belongs—inside your house. You'll notice the difference in your heating bills almost immediately, and the house will feel much cosier during those chilly Lancashire winters.

We know that having work done on your house can feel like a bit of a headache. Who wants scaffolding up for weeks or a messy driveway? We work hard to keep the disruption to an absolute minimum. Because we're a fully registered company (No: 16557299) with £5 million in public liability insurance, you can rest easy knowing you're in safe hands. From sorting out the skip permits with the council to making sure every last bit of debris is cleared away at the end of the day, we handle the lot. We’ll give you a clear, fixed-price quote with no hidden extras, so you know exactly where you stand before we even lift a single tile.
