Services
EPDM Roofing
Our EPDM rubber flat roofs utilise BBA-certified synthetic membranes with ISO 9001 quality assurance. These systems offer exceptional durability, temperature stability, and compatibility with recycled materials. With a 20-year manufacturer's guarantee and over 50 years' life expectancy, they provide cost-effective, environmentally responsible solutions for residential and commercial properties.
GRP Roofing
GRP fibreglass systems use Lloyd's Register-approved resins in 40+ colour options. These lightweight, high-tensile-strength solutions feature 30-year guarantees and excellent environmental compatibility. Our three performance systems combine durability with aesthetic flexibility while maintaining full compliance with European safety standards.
Green Roof Gardens
Residential green roofs incorporate EPDM or GRP waterproofing with vegetation layers. These systems enhance biodiversity, improve thermal insulation, and reduce stormwater runoff. Certified to FLL and DIN 4062 standards, they offer 50+ year durability while supporting local ecosystems and planning compliance for developers.
Roof Repairs
We specialise in emergency roof repairs and storm damage restoration using renewable materials. Our services include leak detection, gutter refurbishment, and Velux window installations. All repairs maintain compatibility with existing green infrastructure while ensuring long-term weatherproofing performance.
Roof Insulation
Our insulation solutions combine Celotex and EcoTherm PIR boards with EPDM/GRP systems to meet Part L Building Regulations. These zero-carbon options improve energy efficiency while maintaining structural integrity. Systems support future integration of solar panels and heat pumps for enhanced sustainability.
