Emergency Roof Repairs for Homes in Bolton
When the wind gets up it funnels straight down the long terraced streets on the south and west of Bolton, and that is when a slate that was already loose finally lets go. On a tall two or three storey terrace around Deane or Daubhill that is not just a leak, it is a heavy slate coming down onto the pavement, so getting the roof made safe is the first thing we do. We are only a short run up from Hindley Green, so we can be there quickly to stop the danger and hold the water off.
We cover Bolton and the surrounding area: Deane, Daubhill, Morris Green, Over Hulton, Middle Hulton and beyond (BL3, BL5).

What’s Included
Once the roof is safe we sheet up anything left open and stop the water getting into the back bedrooms and the ceilings below, then come back to put the roof right when the weather has passed and the job can be taken steady rather than rushed. If you are claiming on your insurance we photograph the damage and set down in plain writing what has happened, which takes one more worry off you at a bad moment. Being based just south of the town means an emergency on the near side of Bolton is rarely a long wait for us.

How It Works
Emergency Roof Repairs in Bolton, FAQs
Usually quickly, because we are based just south in Hindley Green and the south and west of Bolton is a short run for us. For a genuine emergency in BL3 or BL5 we make getting you safe and watertight the priority, then sort the full repair from there.
Keep clear of it and call us. On the tall Bolton terraces a fallen slate is a safety job first, so we come out to make the roof safe and clear the danger, hold the water off, and then arrange the full repair once it is settled.
Put a container under the drip, move anything valuable, and if the ceiling is bulging, pierce the bulge with a screwdriver over a bucket so the water drains before the plasterboard collapses. Turn off electrics in that room if water is anywhere near a fitting. Then call us and we will get to you as fast as we can.
It depends where you are and what else the storm has done, but for genuine emergencies around Hindley Green, Wigan and Bolton we are often out the same day. We will give you an accurate time on the phone rather than promising the moon, and we turn up when we say, which is a big part of why R+R Roofing has 120+ Google reviews.
Small faults, a slipped tile, a lifted flashing, often get fixed on the first visit. Bigger damage gets made safe and watertight first, then put right once you have a written price. Either way the roof is not left letting water in.
