Covering Heywood
Heywood is about 8 miles north of Manchester. We also cover Middleton (3 miles to the south), Rochdale and Bury.
Homes in the North West
Across the North West, Victorian terraces, inter-war semis and modern estates all feature, and brick or stone matching is chosen to suit each street.
What goes into re-roofing?
We erect scaffolding, strip the old covering, check and repair the timbers, then lay a breathable membrane, new battens and the new covering, with dry-fix ridge and verge systems. Fascias, soffits and guttering can be replaced at the same time.

Do you need permission for re-roofing in Heywood?
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
Replacing a roof covering like for like does not usually need planning permission in England. Conservation areas with Article 4 directions and listed buildings are the exceptions.
What can change the price or programme?
- Bats can roost in roofs; if signs are found, work pauses for advice.
- Insulation upgrades at the same time can cut heat loss significantly.
How does the project run?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
