Emergency Roof Repairs for Homes in Lowton
When a storm comes through Lowton it tends to bring two problems. The houses sit open along the A580 and the main roads, so the wind strips tiles and lifts ridges off the exposed slopes, and the mature trees that make the area so green drop branches, and sometimes whole limbs, onto the roofs below. Either way you can end up with water coming in fast, and the first job is always to get the roof safe and watertight.
We cover Lowton and the surrounding area: Lowton Common, Lane Head, Slag Lane, Newton Road, Kenyon and beyond (WA3).

We are only a few miles up the road in Hindley Green, so we can get over to Lowton quickly when a roof lets go. We clear what has come down, stop the water getting in and sheet up anything that needs it, then come back for the full repair once the weather has passed and it can be given the time it needs. If a tree or branch has caused the damage and you are claiming on insurance, we will photograph it and give you a written description for the claim.

How It Works
Emergency Roof Repairs in Lowton, FAQs
Yes, that is a job we see a lot in Lowton because of the trees. We will get over quickly, clear what has come down, make the roof safe and watertight, then sort the full repair. If you are claiming on insurance we will photograph the damage for you.
Usually quickly, since we are only a few miles away in Hindley Green. For a genuine emergency we make getting your roof safe and watertight the priority, then arrange the full repair once the weather allows.
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.
