Roof replacement & re-roofing in Ellesmere Port
When repairs no longer make sense, a full re-roof gives you a sound, watertight roof for years to come. We strip, re-felt, re-batten and re-cover tiled and slate roofs across Cheshire and the North West — and where your existing slate is in good condition, we can reclaim and reuse it.
What we do
What’s included
- 01Existing coverings and old battens stripped back to the roof structure
- 02New breathable roofing felt and new treated timber battens
- 03New tiles or slates — or your own good slate, reclaimed and re-laid
- 04Dry ridge and dry verge systems, or a traditional wet ridge where it suits the roof
- 05Porches, rear extensions and garage roofs as well as main roofs
- 06New fascias, soffits and guttering at the same time if needed
Signs you may need this
- Tiles or slates slipping or cracking again and again
- Damp patches, staining or daylight showing in the loft
- Old felt that has perished or torn behind the tiles
- Repeated leaks that keep coming back after repairs
- A roof that is visibly sagging or uneven

Keep your slate, keep the character
On several recent re-roofs our customers asked to keep their original slate. We strip it carefully, salvage the good slate and re-lay it over new felt and battens — a cost-effective option that keeps the look of the property. We'll tell you honestly at the inspection whether your slate is worth saving.

01Can you reuse my existing slates?
Often, yes. Where the slate is in good condition we can strip it carefully, salvage it and re-lay it over new felt and battens. We'll check the condition of your slate during the free inspection.
02How long does a re-roof take?
It depends on the size and shape of the roof, the access and the weather. We'll give you an expected timescale with your quote.
03Will I need scaffolding?
Most full re-roofs need scaffolding so the work can be done safely. We'll explain the access needed for your roof when we quote.
04Is the quote really free?
Yes. The roof inspection and the quote are free, with no obligation to go ahead.
