Pitched and flat roofing in Weetwood (LS16): repairs, re-covers, chimney work and guttering from an insured local team with a written guarantee.
Weetwood is large period houses standing in mature grounds off the main road, with inter-war semis and later apartment blocks filling the land between them. Weetwood is roughly half an hour from Harrogate down the A61 or A658, and we are on that side of the county most weeks. The age of the house changes the materials, not the method: we survey properly, explain it in plain words, quote in writing and guarantee the work.
Full strip and re-cover on new battens and breathable membrane. Slate, stone or tile to suit the house and the street.

Find out more →Large period houses standing back in mature grounds define this part of LS16, and they come with roofs to match: steep slate pitches, gables and dormers, deep lead valleys between wings, and tall stacks carrying several flues each. Between and around them sit inter-war semis and later apartment blocks with far simpler roofs. Weetwood roofers need scaffold, proper leadwork skills and reclaimed slate for the big houses, and nothing more than a tower and standard tile stock for a good deal of the rest.
On the period properties the problems repeat: nail-sick slate that sheds a few at a time, lead valleys and secret gutters that have fatigued and split, and flashings to bay and dormer roofs that were patched with mastic somewhere along the way. On the apartment blocks it is flat roof sections, communal gutters and rooflights. Roofing in Weetwood often involves working with managing agents or several owners, so we put everything in writing with photographs from the start.
The woods and the big gardens here are the reason gutters and valleys need more attention than the roofs themselves. Heavy leaf fall from mature specimen trees blocks a valley within one autumn, and on these complicated roof shapes a blocked valley empties into the roof space rather than over the front of a gutter. North-facing slopes under tree cover stay damp and carry thick moss that holds water against the slate.
