Roofing in Yeadon: what we see and what we do

Yeadon is a stone mill town by the airport: terraces around the High Street, 1930s semis and big 1960s to 1990s estates on the moor side. Yeadon is one of the further-flung parts of our Leeds coverage, but we work across the whole city and will happily quote there. If you are around High Street and Haw Lane, we have probably driven past your roof. Call us for a free survey and a written quote with no pressure attached.

Yeadon roofers, Yeadon roofing and roof repairs in LS19

Yeadon roofers cover a stone mill town by the airport: terraces around the High Street, 1930s semis and big 1960s to 1990s estates on the moor side around Haw Lane. The terraces are Welsh slate and stone slate with shared chimneys; the semis and estates are concrete tile from cement-ridged to dry-fixed. Roofing in Yeadon is heritage slate work in the centre and estate repairs on one of the most exposed sites in Leeds.

Yeadon roof repairs on the terraces are slipped slates, back gutters, party-wall stacks and rotten timber gutters. On the semis and estates it is cement ridges, porous tiles, brittle felt and soft fascias, with full re-roofs common now as the 1930s and 1960s roofs reach the end together.

Yeadon sits on the airport plateau and takes the weather from every direction. Ridge tiles, verge caps and pots come off every winter; dry-fixing them once ends the repeat, and we do it as standard on any re-roof.

Yeadon is thirty-five minutes from Wetherby across the top via Harewood and Otley. Roofing in Yeadon, repairs, re-roofs, chimneys and guttering, free survey and written quote on 0113 460 1042.

What we do for Yeadon homes

Yeadon housing and what its roofs need

Stone-Built Period Properties

The stone-built houses in Yeadon tend to carry stone slate or Welsh slate on old timbers. The usual jobs are slipped and delaminating slates, lime repointing on the stacks and lead flashings that have finally given up.

Inter-War Semis

The 1930s semis in Yeadon are now well past the point where original roofs and cement-bedded ridges start failing. We re-bed or dry-fix ridges, replace broken tiles and deal with the chimneys, or re-roof properly when the felt and battens have gone.

Mid-Century Estates

On older protected buildings in Yeadon the aim is repair before replacement: reusing sound stone slates, making up shortfalls with reclaimed stock and keeping leadwork traditional.

Modern Developments

Newer homes in Yeadon are not immune: dry-verge caps blown off, poorly bedded ridges, snagging that was never signed off. We put right the details the builder rushed and take over where the warranty stopped.

Streets we are regularly on in Yeadon include High Street, Henshaw Lane, Westfield Drive, Larkfield Drive, Yeadon Banks, Cemetery Road, South Parade, Sandy Way, Carlton Drive, Ivegate, Town Street, Harper Lane, and everywhere in between.
