Book a free surveyWe're seven miles from Northwich and we work here most weeks — slipped slates in Hartford, full re-roofs in Castle, flat roofs on the 1960s estates around Rudheath. We're not the cheapest. The homeowners who call us aren't looking for the cheapest. They want the job done once, photographed start to finish, and backed by a workmanship guarantee.
Northwich is a town of mixed roofs and we see all of it. The older terraces near the town centre and in Witton run mostly natural slate on timber that's been up a hundred years or more. Hartford and Davenham have the larger detached houses where a re-roof is a real job — scaffold, stripped to the rafters, new felt, battens and breathable membrane. Then there's the post-war and 1960s stock around Rudheath, Leftwich and Greenbank with the low-pitch and flat roof extensions that leak at the joints. We've worked on all three. The salt subsidence history around the town means we check for movement before we quote a re-roof, not after — a roof that's been pulled out of square needs different work to one that's just worn out, and we'd rather find that on the drone survey than halfway through the job. Every Northwich job gets the same treatment: a drone survey before we price it, photos at every stage, and the muck and old materials taken away when we leave.
The roofer Northwich calls when it has to be right
We’re a third-generation Cheshire firm, seven miles down the road in Middlewich. We’re in Northwich most weeks. That matters when your roof is leaking on a Friday afternoon — we’re not coming from the other side of the county.
We’re the most-reviewed roofer in Middlewich and every review is five stars. The work is done by our own team — fully insured, in-house, no subcontractors turning up you’ve never met. You deal with the same people from the quote to the final photo.
What we do in Northwich
Northwich gives us the full mix, and we do all of it:
- Repairs — slipped and cracked slates, failed flashing, ridge tiles working loose, leaks around chimneys and valleys. We find the cause with a drone survey, not guesswork.
- Re-roofs — stripping a tired roof back to the rafters, replacing felt, battens and any rotten timber, and re-covering in slate or tile. This is the big job, and it’s the one where doing it right matters most.
- Flat roofing — EPDM rubber and the failing felt roofs on extensions and 1960s properties around Rudheath, Leftwich and Greenbank. We’re Firestone-trained and we’ve completed 15+ Lava 20 roofs.
Why we check for movement first
Northwich sits on old salt workings and parts of the town have a history of ground movement. A roof that’s been pulled out of square doesn’t behave like one that’s simply worn out. We check for that on the drone survey before we quote a re-roof — because finding it on day one is a planned job, and finding it on day four is a nasty surprise on your bill. We’d rather know.
We’re not the cheapest
We don’t compete on price and we won’t pretend to. The homeowners in Hartford and Davenham who call us have usually had a cheaper job before that didn’t hold, and they’ve decided they’re not doing that twice.
What you get instead: a drone survey before we price the work, photos at every stage so you can see what’s under your own roof, the same insured team start to finish, and a workmanship guarantee on the work. The drive gets swept every evening and the old materials leave with us.

What Northwich homeowners say
Every review we've ever had is five stars. Here are a few from this area.
★★★★★“Had three slates come off in the storm and water coming through the landing ceiling. Phoned at half seven in the morning, they were on the roof in Hartford by lunchtime, made it watertight the same day and came back to do it properly the week after. Showed me photos of the cracked flashing I'd never have seen from the ground. No drama, no surprises on the bill.”
★★★★★“Full re-roof on our 1930s semi in Davenham. They stripped it to the rafters, found two rotten purlins the previous lot had just papered over, and sorted them before going on. Scaffold up and down when they said, drive swept every evening, and a folder of before and after photos at the end. Not the cheapest quote we got and worth every penny.”
What we do in Northwich
Common questions
Do you charge to come out and quote in Northwich?
No. We do a drone survey of your roof before we price anything, so you get an honest quote based on what's actually up there, not a guess from the pavement. Northwich is seven miles from us, so we're usually out within a day or two.
Can you get to a leak in Northwich the same day?
Yes. The phone line is answered 24/7 and we do same-day emergency repairs. If water's coming in, we get you watertight first and book the permanent fix after. Northwich, Hartford, Davenham, Rudheath — we cover all of it.
Do you do flat roofs as well as slate and tile?
Yes. A lot of the extensions and 1960s properties around Rudheath and Leftwich have flat roofs that fail at the joints. We're Firestone-trained on EPDM rubber and we've completed 15+ Lava 20 roofs. We'll tell you whether a patch will hold or whether the deck needs replacing — and we'll show you why on the photos.
How long does a full re-roof take on a Northwich house?
A standard semi or terrace is usually a week to ten days depending on the weather and what we find once the scaffold's up. We agree the dates before we start, sweep the drive every evening, and you get before and after photos of the whole job. The work is backed by our workmanship guarantee.
