Excellent. Gutter was overflowing and water was leaking into the house. Danny came out and unblocked it within an hour. Life saver.

Really impressed with the service from DL Roofing. I had a leaking gutter that was dripping onto my bay window/ window sill, creating a really loud and disruptive noise. I reached out to Daniel not expecting him to be able to come out the same day, but he came out straight away and carried out the repair. Really friendly, professional and responsive service and I couldn’t be happier with how quickly he sorted the issue.

Thanks to Dan and his team who did a great job replacing a full roof on both mine and my neighbours property. The lads had to work through some pretty tough conditions during the July heatwave but always turned up on time and always put a full shift in. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Dan and the DL Roofing team. Thanks for a great job!

Unbelievable service from Danny and the lads. Danny was working a few doors down from me doing a full roof replacement and managed to fit in an emergency repair for my roof straight away after a number of my tiles slid off the roof. He sent another team to replace them and found a total of 14 damaged tiles. Not only did he replace the ones that had slid off, he also replaced all the broken ones at no extra cost! I can firmly say that I couldn't recommend anyone else following on from the service that I received. Keep up the top work, thanks.

Dan and his lads were brilliant from start to finish, they did an excellent job swapping my old slate roof covering to a new tile covering. It’s really lifted the look of the house and made it look more modern. Dan’s communication throughout was brilliant and made the whole process run as smoothly as possible. I would highly recommend DL Roofing if you are thinking about a roofing job.

FAQs

What flat roofing systems do you install?

At DL Roofing, we install a range of high-performance flat roofing systems to suit different budgets and property types. These include felt roofing, EPDM rubber roofing, and GRP fibreglass roofing. Each option offers excellent durability and weather resistance, making them ideal for homes and commercial properties across Manchester. Our team will recommend the best system based on your needs, whether you’re replacing an old flat roof or starting a new build.

Can you repair a flat roof leak without full replacement?

Yes, in many cases a flat roof leak can be repaired without needing a full replacement. At DL Roofing, we assess the extent of the damage and carry out targeted repairs to fix splits, cracks, or punctures in the membrane. Whether it’s a felt, EPDM, or GRP flat roof, our Manchester-based team can often restore it quickly and cost-effectively—saving you the expense of a complete new roof when it’s not necessary.

How long will a new flat roof last?

Expect 20–50 years depending on the material: EPDM (~30 years+), GRP (20+ years), felt (10–20 years)
