A composite roof project in Eccles.
An earlier project from the NMB archive, documenting a roof refurbishment with a slate-style composite finish.
Choosing the finish
The homeowners wanted the appearance of natural slate in a composite roofing material. Samples were sourced and reviewed before the chosen finish was agreed.
The recorded work
The original project record lists removal of the existing roof covering, new breathable membrane and battens, lead flashings and composite tiles. The main roof scope also included new fascias and gutters, with work to the rear extension roof.
An example from our building background

The original project in detail
This historical project for Mr and Mrs Ratcliffe replaced the main roof and the roof over the rear extension. The clients chose man-made composite tiles with a natural slate appearance after reviewing supplier samples. The recorded work included scaffolding, removal and disposal of the old slates, battens and felt, new breathable membrane, treated battens, code 4 lead flashings and GRP composite roofing tiles. New fascias and gutters were fitted to the front and rear of the main roof; the nearly new fascia and gutter on the extension were retained. This case study records completed work and does not advertise a separate current roofing service.
