All roofing servicesHomes and roofs in Horwich
Horwich has streets of Victorian terraces with slate roofs built for the loco works, along with inter-war and post-war semis and a large amount of newer housing, including on the former works site and around Middlebrook. Older stone cottages sit on the lanes towards Rivington.
Between the moors and Middlebrook
Horwich sits right against the moors, so homes on higher ground face strong winds and heavy rain coming off Winter Hill and Rivington. Verges, ridges and chimney flashings are common repairs, and roof windows on exposed slopes benefit from regular servicing.
On the newer estates, roof windows are often used to light loft bedrooms and stairwells, and blinds, servicing and electric or solar upgrades are common requests. On the older terraces, slipped slates and outrigger roofs are the usual work. We give a written quote before starting and are happy to begin from photos.

Questions about our work in Horwich
Do you cover Horwich, Blackrod and Lostock?
Yes, along with Westhoughton and the rest of Bolton. Rivington is in Chorley, Lancashire, so please call us to check.
Can you add blinds to roof windows on a new home?
Yes. Manual, electric and solar blinds can be fitted to most roof windows.
Why do exposed verges keep failing?
Mortar at the gable edge takes the worst of the weather. A dry verge system replaces it with fixed caps.
