Who we are

A Yorkshire roofing firm that treats every roof like our own.

Furness Roofing Ltd was founded in 1989 by Mark Furness and is still run as a genuinely family business today. That means fair prices, honest advice and a team that takes real pride in its workmanship — because our reputation in Heckmondwike and the towns around us is built one roof at a time.

Whether you need a single broken tile refitted, a tired Victorian roof given a new lease of life, or a seamless GRP flat roof on a new extension, we bring the same traditional craft and modern materials to every job — with an insurance-backed guarantee on every new roof.

Yorkshire customers

Rated 4.7 / 5 by local homeowners

A selection of recent reviews from customers across Heckmondwike and the surrounding area.

“From the quote to the final clean-up, Mark and the team were faultless. They turned up when they said they would, worked hard every day and left the garden spotless. Our new roof looks brilliant and the price was exactly what was quoted — no nasty surprises.”

“We had damp coming down the chimney breast for months. Furness Roofing traced it straight to cracked pointing and knackered lead flashing. Rebuilt the top of the stack, re-flashed it properly, and the damp is gone. Proper old-school tradesmen.”

“New white uPVC fascias and black gutters — the house looks a different home. Tidy workers, polite, and the quality is clear. Would 100% recommend to anyone in Dewsbury or round that way.”

Frequently asked questions

Straight-talking answers from a Yorkshire roofing team.

How much does a new roof cost in West Yorkshire?

Most full roof replacements on a typical 3-bed semi in the Heckmondwike, Batley and Dewsbury area sit between £4,500 and £9,500, depending on the pitch, the tiles or slates used, scaffolding requirements and any insulation or timber work. We provide free, no-obligation written quotations so you know exactly what the job will cost before we start.

How do I know if my roof needs repairing or replacing?

Look out for missing or slipped tiles, damp patches on ceilings, sagging in the roofline, or daylight showing through the loft. If you're not sure, we offer a free no-obligation inspection — we'll give you an honest assessment and only recommend what's genuinely needed.

Are you insured and do you guarantee your work?

Absolutely. We carry full public liability insurance and every new roof we fit is covered by an insurance-backed workmanship guarantee of between 10 and 20 years, so you're protected long after we've tidied up and gone home. Repairs and smaller jobs are guaranteed by us directly.

How long has Furness Roofing been in business?

We were established in 1989 by Mark Furness and have been serving West Yorkshire ever since — that's more than 35 years as a family-run firm, with over 40 years of combined hands-on roofing experience across the team.

Do I need planning permission to replace my roof?

A like-for-like roof replacement usually falls under permitted development and doesn't need planning permission. Changes of material, raised heights, dormers or listed buildings can be different, and we're happy to guide you through it during your free quote.
