Areas we cover
Ridge Tile Replacement and Repairs across Swinton and nearby
The oldest housing in Swinton and neighbouring Pendlebury is its period terraces, dating from the years when the town grew around its collieries and cotton mills. Roofs of that age are typically slate, with brick chimney stacks and lead flashing that have been in place for a very long time.
We are based at 465a Chorley Road in Swinton, so Pendlebury, Clifton, Wardley, Worsley and Eccles are all a short drive.

FAQ
Ridge Tile Replacement and Repairs: common questions
Mortar or dry ridge: which is better?
Mortar keeps a traditional look. A dry ridge holds each tile mechanically and needs less upkeep. We quote for whichever suits the house.
Is a loose ridge tile urgent?
Yes. Ridge tiles are heavy, and one that is rocking can slide off in high winds.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the roof, the access and what we find. We inspect for free and give you a fixed written price before any work starts.
Do you charge for the quote?
No. Inspections and written quotes are free, with no obligation.
