Manchester’s roofs
Manchester has some of the most varied housing in the North West, and the roofs vary with it.
- Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Levenshulme, Longsight, Rusholme, Gorton and Moss Side, many still with their original Welsh slate roofs, tall chimney stacks and lead valleys between neighbours.
- Interwar semis in Burnage, Chorlton, Withington and Northenden, often with clay or concrete tiles, hipped roofs and bay windows.
- Larger Victorian and Edwardian houses in Didsbury and Chorlton, with big roofs, dormers and plenty of lead work.
- Post-war estates in Wythenshawe, Moston and Blackley, with concrete tiled roofs that are now reaching the age where they need replacing.
The jobs that come up most
- Re-roofs on semis and terraces where the felt has failed. See new roofs.
