Harrogate roofers for slate, tile and flat roofs

Proline Roofers Harrogate is a roofing contractor working across Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon, Wetherby and Nidderdale in North Yorkshire. We repair and replace slate and tiled roofs, renew flat roofs, rebuild chimney flashings and leadwork, and replace guttering, fascias and soffits. Call 01423 645059 to arrange a quote.

Harrogate's roofs have their own character. Stone villas with Welsh slate and tall chimney stacks line the streets around the Stray and the Duchy, inter-war semis carry clay and concrete tiles, and new estates on the edge of town use interlocking tiles with dry-fix ridges and verges. Out in the Nidderdale villages, older stone cottages add another layer of roofing detail.

Whatever the roof, the job starts the same way: find out exactly where the problem is, explain it in plain English, and quote for the work that genuinely needs doing.

Roofing on Harrogate's older houses

Much of central Harrogate was built in stone during the town's spa years, and a good share of it sits within conservation areas. Those roofs tend to be natural slate on timber battens, with stone or brick chimneys, lead valleys and flashings doing a lot of the waterproofing.

Natural slate itself can last a very long time, but the nails and battens holding it usually give out first. That's why "nail fatigue", where slates start sliding out of their courses one after another, is so common on older roofs. A few slipped slates can be refixed. When it's happening across a whole slope, stripping and re-slating, reusing sound slates where possible, is often the better answer.

If your house is listed or in a conservation area, changing the look of the roof may need permission from North Yorkshire Council. Like-for-like repairs usually don't, but it's worth checking before any major change of material.

    Ring 01423 645059 or send the form with what you've noticed and your postcode.

  2. We inspect the roof

    We look at the problem and the roof around it, so we fix the cause rather than a symptom.

  3. Clear quote

    You're told what's needed, why, and whether scaffolding is involved. No pressure to go ahead.

  4. Done and cleared

    Work finished, waste removed, and we talk you through what's been done.

Why Harrogate homeowners use Proline

Slate and tile, both

Old natural slate or new interlocking tiles, the same team handles either properly.

The cause, not the symptom

Damp patches are traced back to where the water gets in, whether that's a slate, a flashing or a gutter.

Straight quotes

A repair is quoted as a repair. A new roof is only suggested when the old one has had its day.

Clean sites

Old slates, offcuts and packaging leave with us, and your drive is swept before we go.

Questions about your roof

What Harrogate homeowners ask most often.

What roofing services do you offer in Harrogate?

Roof repairs, full re-roofs, natural and man-made slate roofing, flat roofs, chimney repairs and lead flashing, guttering, fascias and soffits, and urgent repairs after storm damage. We work on houses, bungalows, extensions, dormers and garages.

How do I arrange a roofing quote in Harrogate?

Phone 01423 645059 or use the quick quote form at the top of this page. Give us your name, number, postcode and a short description of the problem, and we'll be in touch to arrange a visit. You're under no obligation.

Do you work on older stone houses with slate roofs?

Yes. A lot of Harrogate's Victorian and Edwardian housing has slate roofs, stone chimney stacks and lead details, and repairing or re-slating those roofs is a big part of our work.

Is a repair worth it, or do I need a new roof?

It depends on the condition of the whole covering, not just the damaged patch. Where the rest of the roof is sound, a repair makes sense. Where slates are failing across a slope or the underlay has perished, a re-roof usually works out better over time. We'll explain what we see either way.

Can you come out quickly after storm damage?

Call 01423 645059 and tell us what's happened. Phoning is quicker than the form for anything urgent, and we'll tell you when we can get there and how to keep things safe in the meantime.

Do you repair and replace flat roofs?

Yes, on extensions, garages, dormers and porches. We check the deck beneath the covering as well as the surface, and we can also convert a flat roof to a pitched one.

My chimney is letting water in. Can you help?

Yes. Leaks around chimneys usually come from failed flashing, tired pointing or an uncapped flue. We check each of those and fix the actual cause.

Which areas around Harrogate do you cover?

Harrogate and its suburbs, plus Knaresborough, Ripon, Wetherby, Boroughbridge, Pannal, Killinghall, Spofforth and Nidderdale villages such as Hampsthwaite, Birstwith, Summerbridge and Pateley Bridge. Call with your postcode if you're unsure.

Do you fit roof windows?

Roof windows are fitted and flashed in as part of our re-roofing and slating work. Mention it when you get in touch and we'll include it in the quote.

Will you leave my property tidy?

Yes. Old slates and tiles, lead offcuts, packaging and debris are taken away when the job's finished, and paths and drives are cleared.
