Covering Kirkby
Kirkby sits 6 miles north-east of Liverpool, with Maghull 3 miles to the north-west and Litherland 4 miles to the west.
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 is 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.
- Scaffolding and edge protection
- New tiles or slates, ridge and verge
- Fascias, soffits and guttering if required

How is re-roofing approved in Kirkby?
English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.
Replacing a roof covering like for like does not usually need planning permission in England.
What should I think about before starting?
- Heavier tiles than the original can overload old rafters.
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
