Services
Traditional Roof Tiling
Our traditional roof tiling services combine time-tested techniques with modern materials to deliver durable, aesthetically pleasing solutions. We specialise in clay and concrete tiles, ensuring compatibility with heritage and contemporary properties. Each installation adheres to strict safety standards and building regulations, providing long-term protection against weather elements while enhancing property value.
Single-Ply Flat Roofing
Single-ply flat roofing systems offer lightweight, flexible waterproofing solutions for commercial and residential properties. We use high-quality membranes like EPDM and PVC, ensuring seamless installation and exceptional resistance to UV radiation and temperature fluctuations. Our systems prioritise energy efficiency and can be integrated with insulation for improved thermal performance.
Solar Panel Installation
Contour Renewables provides end-to-end solar panel installations designed to reduce energy costs and carbon footprints. Our MCS-accredited team handles design, supply, and installation, ensuring compliance with industry standards. We offer tailored solutions for new builds and existing properties, combining solar PV with roofing works for streamlined project management and cost savings.
Mansafe Fall Arrest Systems
We install Mansafe fall arrest and restraint systems to ensure safe access for roof maintenance. These systems comply with health and safety regulations, featuring durable components like anchor points and horizontal lifelines. Our installations are designed for ease of use while minimising risks during routine inspections or repairs.
Liquid Plastics Waterproofing
Liquid plastics waterproofing creates seamless, flexible membranes for flat and complex roof structures. This cold-applied system reduces fire hazards and offers rapid curing times. We apply it to various substrates, ensuring watertight protection for commercial buildings, balconies, and terraces while maintaining compliance with environmental standards.
