Roofing in Leigh: local roofers you can call
Gaskell Roofing Ltd offers roofing in Leigh across the whole town and its neighbouring districts. We fix leaking roofs, replace tiles and slates, renew flat roofs and fit fascias and gutters, and we always provide a no-obligation quote.
Leigh is a large town to the south-east of Wigan, shaped by cotton mills and coal mining and crossed by the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. Streets of terraced houses built for mill workers surround the town centre, and there are also many larger Victorian and Edwardian homes towards Bedford, Astley and Pennington.
What roofs look like in Leigh
Older roofs in Leigh often have slate coverings that have lasted for generations but are now showing their age. Slipped slates, failed nails and damaged lead valleys all let water in, and the cure may be targeted repairs or a strip and re-slate. We are comfortable working with slate and can match or improve the existing look.
The larger period homes in the area have more complex roofs, including bays, dormers and turrets. Our portfolio includes several houses of this kind, with ornate hips, finials and leadwork, which shows the level of detail we can offer.
Leigh also has a busy rental market, so we regularly quote for repairs and re-roofs on landlord properties. Whatever type of house you own, we aim to give you a quick visit, an honest assessment and a fair price.
