Roofers in Ince-in-Makerfield
Ince-in-Makerfield is a couple of miles west of us toward Wigan, a patch of dense Victorian terraces packed cheek by jowl on tight streets. We are based just up the road in Hindley Green, so the low-pitch slate roofs and party-wall stacks around Lower and Higher Ince are roofs we know well.
Roofing in Ince-in-Makerfield
Ince-in-Makerfield sits a couple of miles west of our Hindley Green base, on the way into Wigan, and it is about as dense as terraced housing gets round here. The streets off Manchester Road and Warrington Road are lines of Victorian two-up two-downs built cheek by jowl, with narrow rear alleys running behind them and hard blue engineering brick used low down where the damp and the old industry demanded it. The roofs are mostly low-pitch slate, laid shallow the way the Victorian builders did it, and a shallow pitch gives water more chance to work back under a slipped or cracked slate.
Because the fronts open almost straight onto the pavement, most of the roof access here is from the rear, and getting a scaffold up a tight back alley off Belle Green Lane or Ince Green Lane is part of the job we plan for before we start. The terraces run in long unbroken rows through Lower Ince and Higher Ince, so what is happening on one roof is often happening on its neighbours too, and we are used to handling a repair on a mid-terrace without disturbing the houses either side. Being only up the road in Hindley Green means we can get across to Spring View or the streets by Ince station quickly, size the job up and give you a straight written price.

Ince-in-Makerfield FAQs
Yes, all the time. We are based a couple of miles east in Hindley Green, so Ince is one of our closest patches, and the WN2 and WN3 terraces get seen quickly.
Yes. On the tight Ince streets most roof access is from the rear, so working off a narrow back alley is normal for us. We sort the access and scaffolding out as part of the quote so there is nothing to catch you out on the day.
All the time. The shallow Victorian slate roofs through Lower and Higher Ince are a big part of what we do, from a few slipped slates to a full re-roof with new breathable felt laid underneath.
