Independent roofers for Methley, working out of Harrogate. Leaks, storm damage, chimneys, gutters, flat roofs and new roofs, with plain advice on what actually needs doing.
Methley is an Aire valley village with a fine old church, rows of former colliery housing, farm buildings on the lane ends and estate building from the 1970s onwards. Methley 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. If you live around Methley Lane and Station Road, we have very likely driven past your house on the way to another one. Ring for a free survey and a written quote with no pressure attached.

Find out more →Methley roofing covers a wider range of buildings than most villages its size. There is the old core round the church with stone cottages and farm buildings, the rows of former colliery housing under slate, the inter-war semis along the main roads and then a good deal of estate building from the 1970s onwards in concrete tile. Roofers in Methley move between hand-made clay ridge on a cottage and a modern dry-fix system on a 1990s detached house in the same week, and both need doing properly.
The colliery terraces are where most roof repairs Methley homeowners request begin. Shared stacks between properties, back gutters behind those stacks that were never wide enough, and slate fixings that have rusted to the point where a gale takes a dozen at once. On the older cottages it is stone verges and lime pointing. On the newer estates it is dry-verge caps, ridge end caps and flat roofs over rear extensions and garages that were laid to no real fall.
Being down in the Aire valley matters here. The ground is low, the air is damp and the river and the old flashes keep humidity up, so roofs stay wet and moss grows heavily on north-facing slopes. Flooding history in this valley also means many outbuildings and garages have been repaired quickly over the years and now need doing properly. Gutters want clearing every autumn without fail, because a blocked downpipe on a low-lying property shows up inside very quickly.
Methley is a long run for us, forty-five minutes or so from Harrogate through Leeds or round by the motorway, but we cover the whole of Leeds from our Harrogate base and the price is for the job, not the journey. Roof repairs, full re-roofs, slate and tile work, chimney repairs and removals, leadwork, flat roofs on garages and extensions, fascias, soffits and guttering.

Inter-war semis around Methley usually have hipped roofs in clay or concrete tile over felt that was never expected to last ninety years. We give a straight opinion on repair versus re-roof and price both where it helps.
Post-war housing in Methley is mostly concrete tile that has gone porous, brittle felt and fascias that have rotted behind the guttering. Re-roofs are common at this age and we do them with breathable membrane, dry verges and proper ventilation.
Newer houses in Methley still have roof problems, just different ones: dry-verge caps lifting, ridges that were never bedded properly, and snagging the builder walked away from. We put the details right and take over where the warranty ran out.
