A failing garage roof is more than an inconvenience – it puts everything stored inside at risk. Whether you're dealing with a leaking felt roof, deteriorating asbestos cement sheets or simply want a modern, long-lasting replacement, we install high-performance roofing systems designed to stay watertight for decades.
Recurring leaks, cracked or blistering felt, soft spots underfoot and pooling water after rainfall are all signs your garage roof has reached the end of its life. Patching over problems rarely solves them – and repeated repair call-outs quickly add up.
If your garage has an asbestos cement roof, replacement isn’t just a practical upgrade – it’s the right thing to do. We remove asbestos garage roofs safely and compliantly as standard, using trained operatives and correct waste disposal procedures throughout. You’ll receive full documentation confirming compliant removal before your new roof goes on.
A full replacement with a modern system gives you a clean, weatherproof finish and the peace of mind that comes with a properly installed, fully guaranteed roof. Most single garage roofs are completed in a single day with minimal disruption.
We primarily install two systems for garage roof replacements, and both are proven performers in the North West climate.
EPDM rubber roofing is flexible, lightweight and highly weather-resistant, making it the most popular choice for flat garage roofs. Our installers are trained and approved by Permaroof, the UK’s leading Firestone distributor, which means we can back every EPDM installation with a 25-year manufacturer’s membrane warranty – something only available through approved installers.
Galvanised steel roofing is one of the most durable and cost-effective solutions available, particularly well suited to replacing asbestos cement garage roofs. Available with anti-drip felt backing to control condensation, it’s a robust, long-lasting system that handles everything the North West weather throws at it.
Where the existing roof structure or aesthetic calls for it, we can also provide Tapco Slate and concrete tile solutions. Our team will assess your garage, explain the options and recommend the best fit for your property and budget.

Weather Shield North West Ltd. did an outstanding job for my mother-in-law in Bury. They replaced an old cathedral roof on her conservatory with a new solid roof. The tradesmen were first rate, friendly and competent. The quality of the job is better than we could have wished for. The price was highly competitive as well. Everything about this job was great and I recommend this company unreservedly.

I’m extremely happy with the window work that was done. The crew was professional, on time, and paid great attention to detail. The windows look amazing—clean, clear, and perfectly finished. They respected my home, cleaned up after themselves, and made the whole process easy from start to finish. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing new windows.

Had 6 windows and back door fitted. Josh and Johnny were excellent. Very quick and efficient. The work is very neat and tidy. Cleared the mess up after themselves and are a couple of nice fellas. More than happy with the results. Would recommend this company to family and friends and would certainly use them again for any future work.

We had our conservatory roof internally cladded by Weather Shield North West Ltd and it’s one of the best home improvements we have ever made. The price was fair the materials used top quality and the fitting crew were extremely professional and did a fantastic job with a great craftsman finish. It’s been a great investment turning our conservatory into an all round the year room. Cant recommend them enough.

Weather Shield North West have just completed insulating the inside of the conservatory roof in one day. The work done is excellent. The guys who fitted and also the electrician were outstanding. They were respectful and polite from start to finish. They also cleared all the waste materials and they cleaned up the little mess that was made. My wife and I cannot praise them highly enough. Thanks for the efficient planning from the very beginning. We had been worried that the work would make the conservatory darker, but we are happy that it hasn't. It has made the conservatory look much more modern. Thanks very much. Very highly recommended!

Everything you need to know before replacing your garage roof – from choosing the right material to understanding what the job involves.
Most single garage roof replacements are completed within one day. Larger or more complex jobs involving rotten decking, structural timber work or asbestos removal may take two to three days.
EPDM rubber typically lasts 30 to 40 years and comes with a 25-year manufacturer's membrane warranty when installed by a Permaroof-approved installer like Weather Shield North West. Galvanised steel is similarly long-lived, with a lifespan of several decades when correctly installed and maintained.
Most like-for-like garage roof replacements don't require planning permission. However, if you're changing the structure or roof height, it's worth checking with your local authority before work begins.
If you're dealing with leaks in multiple areas, widespread cracking, blistering felt or soft sections of decking, replacement is usually better value than ongoing repairs that never fully resolve the problem. If your roof contains asbestos cement sheeting, we'd always recommend full removal and replacement rather than any form of patching.
Yes. All our garage roof installations come with a workmanship guarantee. EPDM installations also carry a 25-year Firestone manufacturer's membrane warranty, available exclusively through Permaroof-approved installers. We take care of every detail – from the waterproof membrane to edge trims and drainage – so the roof performs as it should, long term.
Based in Bolton, we carry out installations across Greater Manchester and Lancashire, including Bury, Wigan, Stockport, Preston, Rochdale, Oldham, Salford, Chorley and Blackburn. As a FENSA-registered installer, every window and door we fit is fully certified, compliant and insurance-backed.
