Roofers in Handforth for roof repairs, re-roofing and flat roofs throughout SK9, covering the established family homes and post-war estates as well as the newer builds around Handforth Dean and the Garden Village. Family-run and fully insured, with a written quote on every job once we have seen the roof.
Handforth is a town we cover constantly, and two decades on SK9 roofs means we know its housing well. It is a growing commuter village, so the stock runs from established inter-war and post-war family homes to a lot of newer development around Handforth Dean and the Garden Village. That mostly means concrete tile roofs now reaching mid-life, where ridge tiles slip and the tiles grow porous, and flat-roofed extensions and garages whose felt has had its day. We handle the everyday roof repairs, flat roofing and guttering and fascia work these roofs need, all of it under the same roofing team across East Cheshire.
On these mid-life tile roofs the sensible thing is to catch problems early, so we survey in person and put a fixed price in writing, never a figure over the phone and nothing added once we start. We are family-run, fully insured, and every finished job is guaranteed in writing. Handforth comes under Cheshire East Council, and on a re-roof of more than half the area we certify the Building Regulations ourselves through an NFRC Competent Person Scheme, so there is no council Building Notice for you to file. Buying here? A roof survey is a cheap way to know what a roof has left in it.
Every credential is one we’ve earned through audit, training, or peer review.
The three services we are best known for in Handforth, 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.
Where a Handforth tile roof has reached the end of its life we re-roof in matching concrete or clay tile on fresh breathable membrane and battens, with dry-fix ridges built to ride out a gale. Fitted by our own team and certified to Building Regulations in-house, with no council application to chase.
Most Handforth homes have a single-storey extension, dormer or garage with a felt flat roof that was only built to last twenty years. We strip these back to a sound deck and re-cover in EPDM rubber or fibreglass GRP, laid in one sealed piece, walkable and guaranteed.
The mid-life concrete tile roofs across Handforth grow porous, crack in the frost and lift ridge and hip tiles in the wind. We refix and match the tiles, re-bed or dry-fix the ridges and clear the blocked gutters that rot the fascia behind them, catching the fault before it spreads.
We cover every roofing need across Handforth, carried out by our own teams, never subcontracted.
View All ServicesHandforth runs from older family homes to brand-new estates, and the roof work changes with the age of the house.
Much of Handforth is inter-war and post-war semis and family homes, mostly hipped roofs in concrete and clay tile. As the tiles age they grow porous, frost works into them, and ridge and hip tiles lift in the wind. We re-bed and re-point or convert to a dry-fix system, refix slipped tiles and carry out the repairs these roofs need.
A lot of Handforth homes have a single-storey extension, dormer or garage with a felt flat roof that was only ever built to last fifteen to twenty years. We strip these back to a sound deck and re-cover in EPDM rubber or fibreglass GRP, laid in one sealed piece and walkable, and renew the guttering and fascias that rot quietly behind the paint.
Around Handforth Dean and the Garden Village the housing is newer, but new roofs still slip the odd tile, lift a ridge in a gale or want a flat roof on a later extension. We maintain and repair these modern roofs and, where an older covering nearby has finally had its day, quote a full re-roof built to last.

“Daniel Scott Roofing replaced a fibreglass roof on the extension of my property. The original roof had been poorly installed by another company. I wish I had contacted Daniel in the first place. He is friendly, courteous, professional and kept me informed of the progress of the job. His staff are also professional, cleaned up as they went along and were on time every day. I would have no hesitation in recommending Daniel Scott Roofing to anyone.”
Genuine 5-star Google reviews from Handforth and the neighbouring towns we cover, each labelled with the town it came from.
“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.”
“We recently had our roof replaced by Daniel Scott Roofing and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. From start to finish the entire process was smooth and efficient, thanks to the expertise and professionalism of Dan. After a previously bad experience with another roofing company, Dan was a breath of fresh air. The team were polite, friendly and incredibly skilled at their craft. We can wholeheartedly recommend Daniel Scott Roofing to anyone in need of roofing services.”

Covering SK9, from the established family homes and post-war estates out to Handforth Dean and the Garden Village, means we arrive knowing roughly what a roof will need.
Handforth Dean lies on the west side of Handforth, with newer housing alongside the retail park. The modern roofs here want ridge re-bedding, slipped-tile repairs and flat-roof renewals on extensions and garages.
Stanley Green sits on the northern edge of Handforth towards Cheadle Hulme, a mix of post-war and later housing. Concrete tile roofs at mid-life bring ridge re-bedding and slipped-tile repairs, along with guttering and fascia renewals.
The Handforth Garden Village development on the edge of the village is bringing new-build family homes to the area. We maintain and repair these newer roofs and re-cover the flat roofs that come with modern extensions and garages.
General
Our yard is at Hallam Mill in Stockport, a short hop over to Handforth, so we can usually come and look quickly, with nothing added to the price for the distance.
Yes. Newer roofs still slip tiles, lift ridges in a gale or want a flat roof on a later extension. We maintain and repair the modern homes around Handforth Dean and the Garden Village just as we do the older stock.
Costs
No. We survey every Handforth roof in person first, because no two are the same, then put a fixed written price together with nothing added later. Our service pages carry cost guides if you want a rough idea beforehand, and a full re-roof of a terrace or semi typically runs £7,000 to £18,000.
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, it is some of the most common work we do in Handforth. We renew guttering, downpipes and tired timber fascia and soffit boards in low-maintenance uPVC, often at the same time as a repair so the scaffold or access is only set up once.
Planning
Replacing more than half the roof brings it under Building Regulations, usually with an insulation upgrade. We are on an NFRC Competent Person Scheme, so we certify and issue that ourselves, with nothing to lodge with Cheshire East Council.
