After three successive championships the club entered the Wearside League Division Two in 1991 and were promoted to Division One after finishing runners-up in their first season.
In 1995–96, the club finished runners-up of Division One and were promoted to the Northern Football League Division Two. They were promoted to Division One in their inaugural season after finishing third, while also winning the Craven Cup defeating Shotton Comrades 4–0 in the final. After 11 seasons in the first division, a spell which also included a run to the FA Vase semi-final in the 2004–05 season, eventually losing to Didcot Town, Roofing were relegated back to Division Two at the end of the 2007–08 season. Roofing regained their Division One status two seasons later after another third-place finish. In 2011–12, the club finished 20th and were relegated back to Division Two.
