What has happened to Ploughcroft Roofing, Halifax?

Ploughcroft Roofing Halifax was sold in 2016 to Avonside Group Services Ltd. The UKs largest roofing company, it acquired Ploughcroft with the aim of expanding the domestic roofing marketplace.

Ploughcroft was originally founded and run by Chris Hopkins as Managing Director until its acquisition in 2016.

Chris is well known within both the Calderdale and roofing business community. You can read more about his achievements on our About Green and Heritage Roofing page. Chris is no longer with the Ploughcroft / Avonside business and has since  gone on to create Green and Heritage Roofing which specialises in roof replacement for heritage and period properties, solar PV and re-roofing properties where solar panels have previously been installed. Green and Heritage Roofing Ltd is not associated in anyway with the Avonside Group of companies.

Warranties with Ploughcroft?

Unfortunately Avonside, who own Ploughcroft, entered Administration on 7th September 2022 blaming ‘a period of disrupted trading during the pandemic … alongside margin squeeze … under performing divisions and financial reporting issues’. Although 9 branches of the  Avonside Group have been sold, it is unlikely that they will honour any warranties under Ploughcroft. However all re-roofs carried out by Ploughcroft carried a 10 year insurance backed warranty. Should you have an issue covered under a 10 year insurance backed warranty, it would be best to contact the insurance provider for advice.

Listened to our concerns and worked hard to accommodate them, was able to source other trades for required preliminary (non-roofing) works (which I had been unable to do). The personnel on site gave excellent customer care - informing us of progress & issues, were very thoughtful, respected the building type and style, took a lot of care and worked very hard and very well together. We were lucky with the weather & everything happened according to the original timetabled plan.

Work done included re-roofing with existing solar panels. Extremely happy with this company and would highly recommend. Very responsive to all my questions before the works and they are very knowledgeable about their profession. I was very pleased to find them as it is very difficult to find roofers with solar experience. All work completed to high standard and the guys on the job were very courteous/polite/tidy/punctual. Excellent communication through out and overall a very positive experience. Thank you to all the team for their hard work and professionalism.

Green and Heritage did the prep work necessary for installing solar panels on our roof. Great to deal with. Very good communication and very professional. Liaison with the electrical company fitting the panels was spot on and even cleaned the windows on completion. Recommended.
