North Kenton is a suburban pocket inside Newcastle upon Tyne, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Newcastle upon Tyne job. We plan around 1960s-90s family homes, wider drives and mature front gardens. That's why this page exists separately to ourNewcastle upon Tyne page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
From the Tyne bridges to the Wear's winding path, this metropolitan county pulses with energy and history. Our team has worked on properties ranging from listed quayside warehouses to sprawling new-build estates, adapting techniques and materials to each unique setting.
As the regional capital, Newcastle has an incredibly diverse housing stock from Grade II listed Georgian townhouses on Grey Street to modern riverside apartments at the Quayside. Jesmond and Gosforth offer leafy Victorian suburbs, while the west end features more affordable terraced housing.
Every area has its own requirements. Here's what we consider when working in North Kenton.
How we adapt for this area:
Scaffolding is positioned to protect driveways, lawns, and garden features during the project.
We install scaffold netting and sheeting to keep dust and debris from affecting neighbouring properties.
Existing roof insulation is assessed and upgraded where possible during re-roofing work.
We keep stock of popular materials at our yard so projects in major towns can start quickly without long lead times.
We thoroughly assess your roof condition, identifying any issues and recommending the best course of action.
You receive a detailed quote with a project timeline, so you know exactly what to expect.
We erect scaffolding, lay protective coverings, and prepare the work area before any roofing begins.
Our experienced team carries out the agreed work, maintaining weatherproofing throughout the process.
We inspect the finished roof, remove all scaffolding and waste, and provide your written guarantee.
Solid-built semi-detached homes with good-sized plots, perfect for adding a new driveway or patio.
Newer builds with open-plan gardens that suit contemporary patio designs and low-maintenance landscaping.
Houses that have been extended often need the driveway or roof adjusted to match the new footprint.
Properties on corner plots have more frontage and garden space, offering greater scope for creative exterior design.
Our team knows this city inside out — from the busiest streets to the quietest suburbs.
We understand the local housing styles, weather conditions, and planning considerations in North Kenton.
Our own trained team carries out all the work — no unknown subcontractors on your property.
As a family-run company, our reputation depends on every single job being done right.
The price we quote is the price you pay — no surprise extras or hidden costs.
We design driveways and gardens that enhance your property's value and fit the local streetscape.
As well as roofing, we also offer these services to homeowners in North Kenton.
