Roof Repairs in Marple, Stockport

Most of the calls we get from folks in Marple start with a simple observation: a slipped slate after a windy night or a gutter that is started to sag. It is easy to put these things off, but your roof is the only thing standing between your carpets and the British weather. Whether it is a quick tile repair or sorting out some tricky leadwork around a chimney, we tackle every job with the same level of focus. We specialise in both traditional slate roofing and modern tiling, ensuring that any repair we do blends in perfectly with your existing roofline. We will never suggest a full replacement if a clever, high-quality repair will do the trick, keeping things honest and transparent from the start.

Marple is lucky to have some beautiful older properties, but those traditional roofs need a bit of extra love as they age. We often see mortar on ridge and hip tiles starting to crumble, which is a common gateway for water ingress. We can help with re-bedding those tiles or, if you want something lower maintenance, we can install modern dry ridge and dry verge systems. These mortar-free solutions are fantastic because they do not crack over time and they stand up much better to the gusty winds we often get coming off the hills. If you are worried about the state of your timber, our team can also look at your fascias and soffits, making sure the entire roofline is solid and rot-free.

Is your garage or extension roof currently covered in old, peeling felt that leaves a puddle every time it rains? Traditional felt has a habit of failing just when you need it most, but things have moved on quite a bit. We specialise in modern flat roofing systems like GRP fibreglass and EPDM rubber. These are not just 'patches'; they are seamless, incredibly durable barriers that can last for decades. Imagine never having to worry about your flat roof leaking again. These systems are flexible enough to handle the changing temperatures and tough enough to walk on if you need to. We have fitted hundreds of these across Stockport and the surrounding 26-mile radius, and the peace of mind they give homeowners is worth every penny.

The chimney is often the most overlooked part of a roof until it starts causing problems. Because they are so exposed to the elements, the mortar (or flaunching) at the top can easily crack, and lead flashing can pull away from the brickwork. If you have noticed dampness around your chimney breast, it is likely a leadwork issue. We are experts in lead step flashing and chimney repointing, ensuring that even the most stubborn leaks are sealed tight. Whether you need a chimney rebuilt, capped off, or just need the pots re-seated, we have the tools and the experience to get it done safely and professionally without the fuss.
