Independent roofers for Collingham, working out of Harrogate. Leaks, storm damage, chimneys, gutters, flat roofs and new roofs, with plain advice on what actually needs doing.
Detached houses, dormer bungalows and executive builds spread out along the Wharfe, with an older stone core near the river. Collingham is roughly half an hour from Harrogate down the A61 or A658, and we are on that side of the county most weeks. Most Collingham jobs begin with a call about a damp patch or a slate on the lawn, followed by a free look at the roof, usually with the drone up so you can see the pictures too.
Leaks traced to the source, slipped slates re-fixed, lead renewed. One visit, one written price, ten-year guarantee.

Find out more →Strung along the Wharfe, Collingham is detached family homes, bungalows and dormer bungalows, executive modern builds and an older stone village core near the river around Church Lane and Linton Road. Collingham roofers see a lot of bungalow and dormer work, which is its own skill: large low-pitch areas, dormer cheeks and flat tops, and junctions where a dormer meets the main slope, all of which leak in ways a plain roof never does.
Dormer flat roofs are the single most common job here. Felt laid decades ago has blistered and split, the cheeks have been clad in something that traps moisture, and the flashing where the dormer meets the tiles has been sealed rather than dressed in lead. A fibreglass or EPDM re-cover with proper falls and new lead detailing solves it for good. On the older village properties it is stone slate, lime pointing and split valleys; on the executive housing it is ridges, verges and conservatory abutments.
The river and the tree cover along it mean damp air, heavy leaf fall and moss on shaded slopes, particularly on the low-pitch bungalow roofs where water already moves slowly. Properties nearer the water can see more prolonged damp than the rest of the village, and gutters at the back of a bungalow tend to be the last thing anybody looks at. Twice-yearly clearing makes a real difference on a roof that has little pitch to help it.
We are close: Collingham is around twenty minutes from Harrogate via the A661, so surveys here are usually a matter of days and storm callouts can be same-day. The inspection costs nothing, we take drone photographs where a roof cannot be walked safely, and the written quote covers both the repair and the replacement so you can compare them properly. Dormer and bungalow work, flat roofing in fibreglass or EPDM, re-roofs, heritage repairs, chimneys, lead work and guttering all covered and guaranteed for ten years. Ring 0113 460 1042.
The larger detached houses in Collingham have big, busy roofs: several hips, long valleys, dormers and extensions bolted on over the years. The work has to be neat and the materials matched, and we look after the drive and the garden while we are there.
Dormer bungalows around Collingham nearly always need the dormer cheeks and flat tops looking at first. We re-cover in fibreglass or EPDM and put new lead where the dormer meets the tiles.
Detached homes in Collingham from the 1960s onwards are coming up for full re-roofs, and in the meantime it is extension flat roofs and conservatory junctions that have never been flashed properly.
Stone-built houses in Collingham usually carry stone slate or Welsh slate on timbers that have done a century or more. The recurring jobs are slates that have split and slid, chimneys wanting lime repointing, and lead that has cracked along the folds.
