Your fascias and soffits do far more than finish off your roof. They shield exposed rafters from moisture, support your guttering system and keep pests out of your loft space. When they start to fail, the knock-on damage can be costly. Upgrading to uPVC is the smart, long-lasting fix.
Greater Manchester’s wet, unpredictable climate puts constant pressure on your roofline. Fascias and soffits sit at the first line of defence – channelling rainwater into the guttering system and sealing the gap between your roof edge and external walls. When they deteriorate, water gets in.
Rotten or damaged boards can lead to damp in your loft, structural damage to rafters and pest ingress through gaps in the boards. Replacing failing timber with uPVC solves the problem permanently, without the ongoing maintenance cost.
Many roofline companies will simply cap over your existing timber boards to save time and cut costs. We don’t. At Weather Shield North West, we remove the old timber as standard before installing your new uPVC roofline system – every time, on every job.
Why does that matter? Capping over damaged or deteriorating timber traps moisture, accelerates decay and stores up far more expensive problems for later. It’s a short-term fix that masks the real issue rather than solving it.
Full replacement is the only way to guarantee a clean, lasting result – and it’s the only approach we recommend. With over 20 years of industry experience, our advice is always based on what’s right for your home, not what’s quickest to fit.

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!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Weather Shield in Bolton for some home improvement projects, and I must say they are truly the best in the business. From start to finish, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. The initial consultation was thorough and detailed, with the team taking the time to listen to my needs and preferences before coming up with a comprehensive plan for the project. They were able to provide me with a variety of options and recommendations to suit my budget and style, which I greatly appreciated. The installation process was seamless, with the crew working quickly and efficiently to complete the project in a timely manner. The quality of their work was exceptional, and I was thrilled with the end result. The attention to detail and craftsmanship was evident in every aspect of the project, from the materials used to the finishing touches. Overall, I cannot recommend Weather Shield in Bolton highly enough. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication to customer satisfaction truly set them apart from other home improvement companies. If you are looking for top-notch service and results, look no further than Weather Shield.
