Full Roofline Renewal, Houghton

Houghton homes built between 1930 and 1980 mostly still have the original timber roofline. It looks solid until you scaffold up and see the back. A one-off uPVC replacement is genuinely 20-year-plus maintenance-free. We're regularly on roofs close to the A690, through Newbottle and Hetton-edge.

  • Full strip-out of timber fascia, soffit and roofline board — not overclad
  • Felt eaves undercloak refreshed or replaced where it's split
  • Vented uPVC soffit for correct roof ventilation (stops loft condensation)
  • Colour-matched gutter and downpipe in half-round or square profile
  • Bottom two courses of tiles lifted, bedded back correctly with new tingles
  • 10-year workmanship warranty; 20-year manufacturer's on the board itself

Colour and profile choices

White, black, anthracite grey and rosewood or golden oak foil are all 20-year colour-stable. Half-round gutters suit older Houghton houses; square-line suits newer estates. Both same price — pick on looks. Deeper eaves on older properties actually make replacement easier — more room for correct vent product.

Overclad vs full strip in Houghton

You'll see cheap "overclad" quotes — uPVC nailed straight over rotten timber. It hides the problem for three years and then everything comes off in one lump when the timber gives way. We strip fully, every time. It's why our quotes look a bit higher on paper.
