Services
Flat Roofing
Our flat roofing solutions combine modern membrane technology with traditional installation techniques. We specialise in single-ply systems and asphalt applications that provide durable, watertight protection for commercial and residential properties. Each installation incorporates proper drainage solutions and insulation to meet current energy efficiency standards while maintaining structural integrity.
Green Roofing
We implement sustainable roofing systems that integrate vegetation layers with waterproofing membranes. Our green roofs improve thermal performance, manage rainwater runoff, and enhance urban biodiversity. Projects include both intensive systems with deep soil layers and extensive systems requiring minimal maintenance, all designed to meet specific environmental targets.
Slates and Tiles
Traditional slate and tile installations remain a core competency. We source natural and manufactured materials that match historical properties while meeting modern durability requirements. Our team maintains heritage aesthetics through precise laying patterns and flashing details while ensuring structural compliance with current building regulations.
Leadwork
Specialist lead fabrication and installation services cover roof valleys, flashings, and architectural details. We employ traditional metalworking techniques alongside modern welding methods to create watertight, long-lasting solutions. All work complies with heritage conservation standards where required.
Standing Seam Roofing
Our standing seam metal systems provide high-performance solutions for commercial and industrial buildings. These interlocking panels create seamless waterproof surfaces with thermal movement accommodation. The systems offer exceptional durability against extreme weather conditions while maintaining clean architectural lines.
