All roofing servicesHomes and roofs in Hulme
Most homes in Hulme date from the 1990s onwards: terraced houses, low-rise flats and larger apartment blocks, many with shallow-pitched tiled roofs, flat roofs or metal roofing. Some older buildings survive, including churches and Victorian commercial buildings, and newer student accommodation sits towards the universities.
Roofs from the regeneration era
Many of Hulme's regeneration-era roofs are now around thirty years old, which is when flat roof coverings, roof windows, sealants and flashings commonly start to fail. Apartment buildings are usually managed by agents, so we often work through them to diagnose and repair leaks in top-floor flats.
Mixed-use buildings in Hulme often have flat roofs above shops or studios, with plant, outlets and rooflights that all need to be kept clear and watertight. We can inspect these and provide a short written report with photos for owners or agents.
