VELUX® Windows and Roofing in Hoole

Homes and roofs in Hoole

Hoole is largely made up of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, along with larger villas on Hoole Road, many of which have been converted into guest houses or flats. Inter-war semis and later homes fill the streets towards Newton and Hoole Village. Loft conversions are very common.

Victorian roofs and loft rooms

Hoole's terraced roofs are now well over a century old, so slipped slates, worn chimney flashings and leaking outrigger roofs are frequent repairs. Parts of Hoole are within a conservation area, so changes to roofs facing a road may need permission and repairs should match.

Many Hoole terraces have been extended into the loft with roof windows on the rear slope, and those fitted in earlier decades often need new glass or full replacement. Guest houses on Hoole Road have larger roofs with valleys and dormers, and we can plan work around bookings.
