From a slipped tile to a full re-roof, we have kept Cheadle Hulme homes watertight for over 20 years. Family-run and fully insured, with a free written quote on every job.
Cheadle Hulme is one of the areas we work in week in, week out, and after more than twenty years across the SK8 postcode we know its roofs well. The housing here is a real mix. The 1930s semis around Smithy Green and Cheadle Hulme station tend to need repairs to slipped tiles, ridge repointing and tired guttering, while the larger detached homes off Grove Lane more often want a flat roof renewed over an extension or the structural roofing for a loft conversion. Around Hulme Hall and its conservation area the period villas call for careful slate matching and chimney work. Different roofs, different problems, the same honest approach to all of them. And if you are buying or selling in Cheadle Hulme, an independent roof survey can tell you where the roof really stands before you commit, and our guide walks you through your next move if the roof is flagged.
Being family-run, we keep things honest and simple. Every job starts with a free written quote after a proper survey, never a figure guessed down the phone, and what we quote is what you pay. We are fully insured, every completed job carries a written guarantee, and as members of an NFRC Competent Person Scheme we sign re-roofs off to Building Regulations ourselves, so there is no separate council application for you to chase. We will always tell you straight whether a repair will hold or a re-roof is the better money, and you can see exactly what goes into a price in our roofing cost guide.
Being based a short drive away at Hallam Mill in Stockport means call-outs to Cheadle Hulme come without a travel premium, and we can usually get out to look at a problem quickly. Most of our work comes from recommendations and repeat customers across SK8, and you can read what local homeowners say about us on our reviews page.

Every credential is one we’ve earned through audit, training, or peer review.
The three services we are best known for in Cheadle Hulme, new roofs and re-roofing, flat roofing, and roof repairs, plus everything else a roof needs. Every job, large or small, is carried out by our own trained teams, never subcontracted.
When a Cheadle Hulme roof is past patching, we strip it back and rebuild in matching tile or reclaimed slate, with fresh lead to the valleys and abutments these SK8 roofs carry. Every re-roof is fitted by our own team and signed off to Building Regulations under our NFRC Competent Person Scheme, so there is no Stockport Council application to chase.
Across the extensions and garages off Grove Lane and the wider SK8 area, we strip tired felt back to a sound deck and re-cover in EPDM rubber or fibreglass GRP, laid in one sealed piece with proper falls and a long written guarantee. We replace a failing flat roof rather than patch over it.
The 1930s and post-war semis around Smithy Green and the station keep us busy with slipped tiles, loose ridges and worn pointing. We refix and match the tiles, re-bed the ridge and put the flashings right, so one small fault does not turn into a stained ceiling.
We cover every roofing need across Cheadle Hulme, carried out by our own teams, never subcontracted.
View All ServicesTwenty years across SK8 means we turn up knowing roughly what a Cheadle Hulme roof will need, street by street.
Cheadle Hulme is really two roofscapes. The 1930s and post-war semis around Smithy Green and the station throw up slipped tiles, loose ridges and worn pointing, the everyday work of our roof repairs. The larger homes off Grove Lane more often need a flat roof renewed over an extension or garage, where we strip back to a sound deck and re-cover in EPDM rubber or fibreglass GRP.
The period villas and the Grade II listed Hulme Hall sit in a conservation area, so the materials and the look of the roofline matter. We match natural slate, repoint chimney stacks in lime mortar rather than smearing them with sealant, and dress fresh Code 5 lead into valleys, bays and abutments. Buying or selling one of these older homes? An independent roof survey tells you where it really stands first.
Cheadle Hulme falls under Stockport Council, and once more than a quarter of a roof is replaced the work has to meet Building Regulations. As members of an NFRC Competent Person Scheme we certify a re-roof ourselves and issue the certificate at handover, so there is no separate council application, inspector visit or wait. And if a leak cannot wait, our emergency roof repairs make it watertight fast.
Plenty of SK8 streets are lined with mature trees, and the leaves and seeds they drop block gutters and downpipes until joints leak and brackets pull away. We clear and refit guttering, and on the shaded slopes that hold damp we lift moss and algae with a gentle soft wash roof clean rather than a roof-stripping jet wash. Our base at Hallam Mill is a short drive away, so call-outs come without a travel premium.
Our Promise to You
If we come out to a leak anywhere in Cheadle Hulme or the wider SK8 area, we do not leave until it is stopped. A full repair on the day where we can, a watertight temporary fix where we cannot. Either way, your roof is sound when we pack up.

“I had a completely new roof installed by Dan and his team at my mother's house. From pricing to completion was a flawless experience. Dan's team were excellent, very polite and courteous to my mother and cleaned up at the end of each day. The team also made sure that my mother knew they were leaving for lunch or at the end of the day so she could make the house secure. They are a very good company to deal with and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to friends and family. Five star company well done guys and thanks again for a job well done.”
“Daniel was recommended by a friend. We had another quote and Daniel's was much better value. His team came quickly to carry out the job, they worked hard from start to finish, and were very polite. With our new roof we feel warmer in the house and we have peace of mind going into the winter months. We would recommend Daniel and his team, and would employ him again in the future.”

“Dan's knowledge, candour and honesty are top notch. He helped identify issues with our roof that others completely missed, giving us a really clear understanding of the state and realistic life span of the roof. As a result he actually talked me out of doing more work, due to the limited life it would have against the rest of it, suggesting I save my money to have it all done properly in the future when we need to. He was always extremely helpful in making sure the work was done to a high standard.”
From the 1930s semis around Smithy Green to the period villas near Hulme Hall, here is what most often brings us out to a Cheadle Hulme roof, and how we put each one right.

Pooling water, blistering or splits on a kitchen extension, dormer or garage roof, and staining on the ceiling below.
What you'll notice
Damp spreading down a chimney breast, blown plaster around the stack, or water in the loft beneath it.
What you'll notice
Water sheeting down the wall in heavy rain, green staining on the brickwork, or damp appearing high up on an inside wall.
A few of the roofs we have recently completed across Cheadle Hulme and the wider Stockport area. Tap any photo to see it full size.
A period property bay window roof where the original 40 to 60 year-old lead had finally reached end of life, lifting and splitting at the front edge after years of thermal-movement fatigue. We peeled the old lead back to reveal a deck rotten beyond patching, replaced every board, re-established the falls, then re-laid Code 5 lead sheet dressed over traditional wood-core rolls. The rolls let the lead expand and contract with the seasons without splitting again. Dressed neatly into the soffit and flashings for a 60+ year service life, with no membrane replacement cycle to plan for.

The period roofs around Hulme Hall and the newer homes towards Grove Lane need different things. Covering all of SK8 means we arrive knowing roughly what to expect.
One of the old hamlets that grew together to form Cheadle Hulme, Smithy Green sits close to the railway station and is made up largely of semi-detached family homes. We're often called out here to renew worn felt flat roofs on dormers and garages, repoint slipping ridge tiles, and overhaul guttering and fascias on the older properties.
Centred on the Grade II listed Hulme Hall and the streets around Hulme Hall Road, this is one of Cheadle Hulme's most established residential pockets. It falls within a conservation area mixing timber-framed period buildings and Victorian villas, so we carry out sympathetic slate repairs, chimney restoration and leadwork using traditional materials that suit these older roofs.
Grove Lane is another of the hamlet names that survives within Cheadle Hulme, now a desirable residential area mixing older period houses with later detached and family homes. The variety of roof types here means anything from traditional slate repairs and leadwork on the older stock through to re-tiling and extension flat roofs on the newer properties.
General
We are based at Hallam Mill in Stockport, a short drive from SK8, so we can usually get out to look at a problem quickly and there is no travel charge built into the price.
We do. Velux and similar roof windows are a quick way to bring light into a loft room, landing or bathroom. We supply and fit them with the proper flashing kit so they sit watertight in the roof, and we can advise on the best position before we start.
Costs
No. We survey every Cheadle Hulme roof in person before we price it, because no two are the same, then put a fixed quote in writing with nothing added later. Each of our service pages also has a cost guide so you can get a feel for the numbers first.
Repairs
If the deck underneath is still sound we can sometimes patch it, but old felt that has started splitting usually fails again within a winter or two. More often the honest answer is a one-off recovering in GRP or EPDM, which we will price against a repair so you can decide.
Yes, leaking stacks are one of the most common jobs we do in Cheadle Hulme. We repoint in lime mortar, rebuild where the brickwork has failed and renew the lead flashing, rather than smearing the problem over with sealant. Chimneys are also the most-flagged item on house surveys, so if you are buying in Cheadle Hulme it is worth looking at a pre-purchase roof survey before you exchange.
Planning
They can. The Hulme Hall conservation area places more weight on materials and the look of the roofline, so slate and detailing usually need to match. Straightforward like-for-like repairs are normally fine, and we will flag anything that needs checking before we begin.
Materials
Yes. We source matching tiles, reclaimed slate and good natural alternatives so a repair or re-roof blends with the original rather than leaving an obvious patch in a different colour.
Call us today on 0161 566 7522 or fill in our contact form. We usually get back to you the same day.
