Services
New Roofing
We provide complete new roof installations using premium materials including natural slates from Canada and Spain, composite alternatives, and traditional Kent peg tiles. Our process ensures proper scaffolding, material delivery, and waste disposal. Every project concludes with client-approved final payment after 100% satisfaction is confirmed.
Flat Roofing
Modern flat roofing solutions featuring GRP fibreglass (20-year guarantee), liquid plastics (25-year guarantee), EPDM rubber, and traditional torch-on felt. Each system includes proper decking preparation, edge trims, and waterproofing layers. We advise on optimal choices based on property requirements and budget considerations.
Re-roofing
Comprehensive re-roofing services that maintain structural integrity while upgrading materials. We remove existing coverings responsibly, replace unsound decking, and install new systems to exact specifications. Fascias, soffits, and guttering replacements are recommended only when necessary to ensure cost-effectiveness.
Slating & Tiling
Specialist slating and tiling services offering natural and composite materials in various colours and styles. Our craftsmen ensure perfect matching with existing roof aesthetics while maintaining watertight performance. Services include concrete plain tiles, clay alternatives, and traditional interlocking systems.
Bespoke Leadwork
Custom leadwork installations and repairs executed to highest standards. Our skilled technicians create durable flashings, valleys, and roof penetrations that integrate seamlessly with new or existing roofs. All work complies with industry regulations for longevity and weather resistance.
