A hundred and thirty winters on a hatter's terrace
The terraces around the town centre went up quickly for a workforce that needed housing, and many have never had a proper reroof, only patching. What we find on strip is consistent: hand made clay or Welsh slate largely sound, nails wasted to nothing, battens split along the nail line and no underlay at all, sometimes with eighties felt sagging between the rafters where somebody bought another decade. The right job is a full strip, new treated batten, breather membrane, good slate relaid with fresh material to match, then lead soakers at every abutment.
Flat roofs in Denton
There is a great deal of flat roofing here: rear kitchens, garages, dormers and rear wings. Boardman Roofing can replace worn felt or asphalt with glass reinforced polyester or EPDM rubber. We check the deck and the fall to the outlet before we specify a system. We will not replace a flat roof deck until we have proved the joists underneath are dry and sound. The quote turns on the deck area, the number of upstands and outlets, and how much of the old deck has rotted and has to be renewed first.

Haughton Green, Dane Bank and the estate roofs
Out at Haughton Green and Dane Bank the housing is interwar and postwar concrete interlocking tile, and it fails differently. Tiles go porous and hold moss in the laps, the ridge cracks, the felt at the eaves tears away and drops out of the gutter, and the covering gains weight as it soaks. Usually the loft insulation has been laid over the eaves and blocked the ventilation path, so the timbers are damp too. A recover is four to six days on a semi, and a sensible moment to fit eaves vents and dry verges.
