Services
Flat Roofs
We specialise in flat roof installations using high-performance materials like rubber, fibreglass, and traditional felt. Our systems balance cost-effectiveness with durability, offering 10-year guarantees as standard. For enhanced longevity, we recommend select systems with 20-year extended guarantees. Each project incorporates manufacturer-approved specifications to ensure watertight integrity and compliance with building regulations.
Tiled Roofs
From historic listed buildings with handmade peg tiles to modern properties, we deliver precision tiled roof installations and repairs. Our expertise includes matching unique tile profiles for seamless restorations. We replace damaged tiles, address structural issues, and ensure compatibility with existing roof designs, maintaining aesthetic continuity while enhancing weather resistance through improved flashing and underlay systems.
Leadwork
Our leadwork services cover flashings, valleys, and skylight surrounds, particularly for period properties requiring traditional craftsmanship. We fabricate custom lead details to original specifications while offering modern alternatives where appropriate. Guttering solutions include full replacements, section repairs, and maintenance packages, using materials that integrate with existing systems for optimal water management and visual consistency.
