Harehills is back-to-backs and through terraces running street after street around Harehills Lane and Roundhay Road, with party-wall chimney stacks every couple of houses, shared gutter runs and long parallel roof slopes that were all built within a few years of each other. Harehills roofing is inherently a shared business: the stack on your boundary belongs to two houses, and water getting past one roof very often ends up over the neighbour's ceiling rather than your own.
Back-to-backs concentrate the problems. There are no side walls to discharge onto, so if a back gutter or a valley fails the water goes inside. The usual faults are slates slipping from nail sickness, back gutters lined in felt or cement rather than lead, perished stack flashings, and chimney brickwork that has not been pointed since it was built. Many of the stacks are now redundant, and taking them down below the roofline with a properly capped and flashed finish removes a recurring leak and a safety risk in one go.
Access shapes every job here. Streets are narrow, terraces are three storeys in places, and scaffolding usually has to go on the pavement or the road, so the work needs planning before anyone starts. A high proportion of properties are rented, and roofs can go a decade without inspection, which is why so many of our calls arrive as a ceiling failure rather than a small leak. A photographed survey gives a landlord or an agent something concrete to work from.
Harehills is roughly forty minutes from Harrogate, down the A61 or via the A1(M) and the A64, and we work in this part of the city every week. Slate repairs, re-slating, back gutter renewal, chimney work including removals below the roofline, fascias, soffits and rainwater goods are all covered, and we work for owners, landlords and agents alike. Free survey, photographed report, a written quote and a ten-year workmanship guarantee. Phone 0113 460 1042 and we will get somebody out to look at it.
The Victorian and Edwardian villas in Harehills are steep slate roofs with tall stacks, timber-lined valleys and a great deal of lead. Our work here is slate repair, chimney repointing and replacing flashings that were done cheaply a generation ago.
The modern estates in Harehills are mostly interlocking concrete tile with dry-fix systems. The faults tend to be small, annoying and windy, and we fix them quickly with matching parts.
Landlords with property in Harehills tend to want two things from a roofer: a fixed written price and no hassle with access. We give both. Most of the work on lets is guttering, flashing and slipped slates, with the occasional strip and re-cover between tenancies.
Big period houses in Harehills, whether still one home or now several flats, need proper scaffold and a roofer comfortable with old slate. Like-for-like replacement, stacks rebuilt where they have gone, dormers and bays sorted.
