Harrogate-based roofers covering Holbeck (LS11). Roof repairs, re-roofs, flat roofs, chimneys and gutters, priced in writing and guaranteed for ten years.
Mills, warehouses and workshops converted to flats and offices, mixed with new-build blocks and the last of the old terraces. Holbeck is towards the far edge of what we cover, but we run into Leeds all the time and the price is for the work, not the mileage. The same handful of faults come up again and again on Holbeck roofs, and we know which of them need a repair and which are the roof telling you it is done.
Fibreglass, EPDM and torch-on felt for extensions, garages, dormers and bays. Laid to fall so water actually leaves.

Find out more →Mills, warehouses and workshops converted into flats and offices, new-build blocks and the last of the old terraces make up Holbeck, around Water Lane and Domestic Street. Almost none of it is a conventional house roof. Roofing in Holbeck means flat membranes, asphalt, parapet and box gutters, north-light mill roofs with their patent glazing, and slate roofs hidden behind stone parapets on buildings that were never meant to be looked at from above.
Converted mill buildings are where the serious water ingress usually starts. Parapet and box gutters are long, often original in profile, and when the lining fails or an outlet blocks the water goes straight inside over a large area. North-light roofs leak at the glazing bars and at the junction between glazing and covering. On newer blocks it is membrane laps, upstands at plant plinths, and outlets choked with grit. Tracing a leak through a flat roof of this size is a job in itself and is worth doing properly before anyone starts buying materials.
These are working buildings with tenants and businesses in them, so the practicalities matter: access, scaffold or mast permits, plant and services in the way, and work that has to happen without shutting a floor down. We survey by drone first, produce a photographed condition report, and set out what needs doing now and what can be planned for, so a landlord or managing agent can budget rather than react.
We are in central Leeds regularly, about forty minutes from Harrogate on the A61, so arranging a survey around your building's working hours is straightforward. Commercial and converted-building roofing, flat roof replacement, parapet and box gutter work, rooflight renewal and photographed condition surveys are all covered, and we are used to dealing with landlords, agents and tenants on buildings that cannot simply shut for a fortnight. Everything is specified and priced in writing, the survey costs nothing, and the workmanship is guaranteed. Phone 0113 460 1042.
The commercial roofs we see around Holbeck are mostly flat or shallow-pitched: felt that has bubbled, fibreglass cracked at the edge trims, and box gutters that have not been cleared since they were fitted. We photograph everything by drone, put a report together and price the job so it can be planned round trading hours.
Big period houses in Holbeck, 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.
Blocks of flats in Holbeck nearly always mean a flat roof, parapets and a management company. We produce a condition report with photographs before anything is priced, quote the whole roof rather than a patch, and keep the residents informed while the work is on.
Business premises in Holbeck usually need a straight answer more than anything else: patch, overlay or replace. We say which and why, with pictures, and we will work early, late or at the weekend if the business needs it.
Anywhere around Water Lane and Domestic Street, or the streets behind them, is covered.
