Our Four-Step Heritage-Friendly Process

Free conservation survey. Drone imagery, moisture meter, sample slate.
Method statement & scaffold. Narrow streets like Burgoyne Road? We use lift-off scaffold sections for bus access.

Handover & warranty. Certificate pack, drone-after photos, yearly reminder email.

Thinking of dormer windows for extra light? See our Velux roof-window service.

Cut Heating Bills With a Warm-Roof Upgrade

Many S6 loft conversions still rely on thin mineral wool. During a re-roof we fit 120 mm PIR above rafters—turning draughty bedrooms into cosy retreats and nudging EPC scores from D to C. Learn more in our insulation guide.

Project Spotlight – Middlewood Road (Opposite the Stadium)

A slate-clad hipped roof suffered widespread nail-fatigue. We stripped 7 000 slates, replaced rotten hip rafters, installed 38×25 tannalised battens and breathable membrane, then re-laid Heather Blue slate with stainless nails. Ridge and hip lines switched to dry-fix for zero maintenance. Job finished in five working days—guaranteed 10 years on labour, 75 years on slate.

FAQs – Roofing in Hillsborough & Walkley

Can you work around match-day parking bans? Yes—we schedule scaffold deliveries before 9 a.m. and after 8 p.m. on Sheffield Wednesday home games.

Do I need conservation consent for slate replacement? Most streets north of Langsett Road are outside conservation zones, but we always check council maps and supply like-for-like samples.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex and the team are brilliant. Having varied experiences with lots of different roofing companies in the past these guys are a breath of fresh air. I’ve already got them on the next job and will happily use them again. Price is always fair and the quality of workmanship is brilliant. I’m a stickler for detail and there attention to detail is exceptional, down to the last nail.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had my up-and-over roof replaced by Alex and his team, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Alex was reliable, trustworthy, and had everything under control. His team were fantastic—turning up exactly when they said they would and getting straight to work. I expected the process to be stressful and messy, but Alex made sure it was completely hassle-free. The work was completed in just two days, and once finished, they left everything spotless. If you’re looking for a professional, efficient, and friendly roofing team, I highly recommend Alex and his team. Thanks again for a job well done!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex and the team were very helpful and skilled.  They worked very hard making sure the lead cladding was neat, smart and tied in fully to the new roof  - ensuring it was fully weatherproof for a long time to come.   It has really helped our 100 year old house retain its character.   Thank you
