VELUX® Windows and Roofing in Springhead

Homes and roofs in Springhead

Springhead has older stone terraces with slate roofs, along with inter-war and post-war semis and later detached homes. Many homes sit on sloping ground with views towards the hills, and some have been extended with loft rooms.

Weather off the moors

Because of its height and exposure, Springhead's roofs get more wind and rain than lower parts of Oldham. We often repair verges, ridges and flashings, and replace roof window seals and glass that have suffered from the weather.

Electric and solar roof windows with rain sensors are useful here, closing automatically when the weather turns. Many existing windows can be converted without replacing the window, and we can check from a photo of the code label. Sun tunnels are another option for dark landings and bathrooms.
