All roofing servicesHomes and roofs in Shaw
Terraced streets with slate roofs surround the town centre and the large former mills, many built in brick with some stone. Inter-war, post-war and later semis and detached homes fill much of Crompton, and newer developments have been built on former industrial sites.
Pennine foothills
Shaw sits close to the moors, and homes on higher ground towards High Crompton and Crompton Moor face strong winds and heavy rain. Verges, ridges and chimney flashings are frequent repairs, and roof windows benefit from robust flashing and regular servicing.
Roof windows are a practical way to turn loft space into a bedroom or study, and solar-powered windows avoid the need for new wiring. We can also replace older roof windows and glass in existing loft rooms.

Questions about our work in Shaw
Do you cover Shaw, Crompton and Newhey?
Yes. Shaw and Crompton are in Oldham and Newhey is in Rochdale, and we cover them all.
Do solar roof windows need wiring?
No. A small solar panel charges a battery, so no mains wiring is needed.
Can exposed verges be made lower maintenance?
Yes. A dry verge system replaces mortar with fixed caps that cope better with the weather.
