New Roof Installations for Lymm’s Historic Village Homes and Luxury
Residences.
All Work Comes With An Insurance Backed Guarantee.
Trusted Roofing Excellence for the Lymm Community
Lymm is a village that prides itself on its aesthetic character and historical significance. From the iconic Lymm Cross to the steep-pitched Victorian villas and modern custom-builds, the housing stock here represents some of the highest value in the North West. At Sure Choice Roofing, we provide a service that respects the heritage of the WA13 postcode while delivering modern structural performance.
We specialise exclusively in full roof replacements. On properties of the age and quality found in Lymm, “patch repairs” are rarely the right choice. They often ignore the underlying failure of 80-year-old bitumen felts and rusted fixings. We provide a complete “strip-to-rafter” service that restores the structural integrity of your home, ensuring it remains watertight and energy-efficient for the next half-century.
Our Discrete, Tech-Led Exterior Survey Process
We understand that Lymm residents value their privacy and prefer a professional, efficient experience. Our survey process has been modernised to be entirely
non-intrusive, allowing us to provide an accurate technical plan without the need for an internal visit.
● No Internal Access Required: We conduct our technical assessments 100% from the exterior. We do not need to enter your home or climb into your loft, ensuring your daily routine is never interrupted.
● Precision Technical Mapping: Using high-resolution photography and aerial assessments, we identify specific failure points—such as “nail sickness” in Welsh slates, porous clay tiles, or failing leadwork in the complex valleys common in Lymm’s architecture.
● Fixed-Price Agreement: Within 48 hours of our inspection, we provide a transparent, fixed-price agreement. This ensures total financial certainty, with a final price that will not change during the build.
Specialist Materials for Lymm’s Architectural Heritage
Lymm’s unique charm is rooted in its traditional materials. We source premium products that match the village's historic palette while providing superior modern durability.
Natural Slate and Stone Preservation
Many of Lymm’s heritage properties feature natural slate. Over time, the iron nails originally used can perish, leading to “slipped slates.” We specialise in full replacements using premium Welsh or Spanish Slate, secured with modern, rust-proof fixings that can
withstand the exposed conditions often found near the canal and open fields.
Traditional Clay and Rosemary Tiling
For the high-quality 1930s and Edwardian homes in Lymm, clay tiles are a signature feature. We source high-density clay tiles in heritage tones that match the original aesthetic of the village but provide vastly improved resistance to moss growth and water
absorption.
Bespoke Leadwork and Dry-Fix Systems
Lymm roofs are frequently complex, featuring multiple gables, dormer windows, and substantial chimney stacks. We replace all failing lead with new British Standard lead, hand-dressed for a permanent waterproof seal. We also utilise Dry-Fix ridge and verge systems, providing a maintenance-free mechanical finish that replaces traditional mortar,
which is prone to cracking in damp environments.

The Sure Choice Commitment
A roof replacement is a major undertaking, but it shouldn’t be a drawn-out ordeal. By specialising purely in full replacements, we have refined our workflow to be the most efficient in Cheshire. Most Lymm projects are completed within our clients timelines.
Our “Strip-to-Rafters” Process Includes:
1. Total Strip-Back: We remove every old tile/slate and the original perishing felt, stripping the building back to its timber rafters for an exterior structural inspection.
2. Exterior Timber Inspection: We check for signs of rot or structural sagging from the outside, reinforcing the timber where necessary to ensure your new roof has a perfectly level foundation.
3. High-Performance Infrastructure: We install high-tensile breathable membranes and pressure-treated timber battens. This allows air to circulate, preventing damp and rot in your roof space.
4. Weather-Proof Finishing: Using precision-laid materials and bespoke leadwork, we create a watertight seal that stands the test of time.
Protecting Your Property Value in the WA13 Postcode
Lymm properties are significant financial assets. In the local property market, a roof is a primary focus for surveyors and high-end buyers. A home with a failing or poorly patched roof can be a significant liability during a sale or valuation.
A Sure Choice Roof, comes with an Insurance Backed Guarantee, which acts as a badge of quality. It provides total confidence for the homeowner and serves as a powerful asset should you ever decide to sell, demonstrating that the property has been maintained to the highest possible professional standards. Furthermore, our modern roofing systems improve your home’s “thermal envelope,” contributing to a more comfortable and energy-efficient living environment.
Warning Signs for Lymm Homeowners
If your property is over 40 years old, your roof may be reaching its natural limit. Look for these indicators from the ground:
● “Slipped” Slates or Tiles: A clear indicator that the original fixings have perished.
● Grit in the Gutters: Finding sand-like grit in your gutters means the protective surface of your tiles is eroding and they are becoming porous.
● Internal Water Staining: Damp patches on top-floor ceilings or in the corners of rooms are the final warning that your secondary protection (the felt) has failed.
Our non-intrusive survey is the most effective way to identify these issues before they lead to expensive structural damage to your rafters or interior ceilings.
