Roofers who know Bury
We carry out roof replacements, solar installations and roofing work across Bury and the surrounding towns, including Ramsbottom, Tottington, Radcliffe, Whitefield and Prestwich. Full re-roofs and solar installations are the projects we're most often asked to quote for.
Bury is in Greater Manchester, on the edge of the West Pennine Moors and close to the Lancashire border. Its housing includes red-brick and stone Victorian terraces, inter-war and post-war semis, and modern estates, with slate, concrete tile and interlocking tile roofs all common.
Like the rest of the area, Bury gets plenty of rain and wind, particularly on the higher ground towards Ramsbottom and Tottington. We travel to Bury from our base in Colne and plan each project carefully.

Planning a new roof in Bury
Most homeowners in Bury only replace a roof once, so it pays to know what a proper job involves before you compare quotes. A full replacement means stripping the old covering right back to the rafters. That lets us check every timber, replace anything rotten or weakened, and fit a new breathable membrane and new treated battens before the slates or tiles go back on. Quotes that skip the strip and simply overlay or patch can look cheaper, but they hide problems that shorten the life of the new roof.
Every full roof replacement we carry out in Bury is overseen by building control. That gives you an independent check on the standard of work, and the paperwork you'll want when you come to sell. It also carries a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, so the guarantee stands even if anything were to happen to the business.
The details are where roofs in Greater Manchester tend to fail: ridges, verges, valleys, chimney flashings and the junctions with neighbouring roofs. We spend time on these because the weather here finds every weak spot. Where it suits the property, we can fit mechanically fixed ridge and verge systems that don't rely on mortar, and we renew lead where it meets chimneys and walls rather than patching it with sealant.
We keep you updated as the work happens. Payments are made in stages as the work progresses, never everything up front. If you're also thinking about solar panels, fitting them while the scaffolding is up in Bury saves you paying for access twice.
Common roof problems in Bury
Original slate on Victorian terraces
Many of Bury's terraces still carry original slate. Once nails corrode and battens decay, slates slip regularly, and a full strip and re-roof is usually the lasting fix.
Weather on higher ground
Homes on the higher ground towards the moors take more wind and rain. Mortar-bedded ridges and verges crack and loosen over time. On re-roofs we can fit mechanically fixed ridge and verge systems where they suit the property.
Concrete tiles and failing felt
Post-war homes often have concrete tile roofs with felt underneath that has perished. Replacing the covering, membrane and battens solves the problem properly.
Family homes ready for solar
Semis and detached homes across Bury often have roof slopes suitable for solar panels. We fit them as roofers so the roof stays watertight, and it's efficient to combine them with a re-roof.
