Homes and roofs in Stockport

Stockport grew on hat making and cotton where the Tame and the Goyt meet to form the Mersey, and its roofs show every stage of that growth. Edgeley, Heaton Norris, Reddish and the streets round the town centre are packed with Victorian and Edwardian brick terraces under Welsh slate. Heaton Moor and Heaton Chapel have big Victorian and Edwardian semis and villas with slate or clay tile roofs and tall chimneys, while Cheadle Hulme, Bramhall and Hazel Grove are full of 1930s semis under clay and concrete tiles.

Common roof problems in Stockport

On the Victorian terraces the trouble is slate that has slipped as the nails rust through, worn lead where one roof steps down to the next, and shared chimney stacks with the mortar washed out. The bigger houses in the Heatons have more valleys, hips and chimneys to go wrong, and slipped clay tiles need matching to the rest of the roof. On the 1930s semis it is cracked ridge and hip mortar, porous tiles, tired felt and split bay roofs over the front windows. Out east, Marple and Romiley sit on the edge of the Pennine hills, and wind-driven rain finds every loose slate.
