Homes in the North West

Terraced housing is a defining feature of many North West towns, which brings party walls and narrow access into most projects, with more space to extend on suburban semis.

What do you get with re-roofing?

Re-roofing means stripping a pitched roof back to the rafters and replacing the membrane, battens, tiles or slates, ridge and flashings. It is needed when a roof covering reaches the end of its life, and it is the right time to improve loft insulation.
