What the work actually involves
Roofing has a lot of words in it that nobody uses anywhere else. Here is what we mean by them.
A full re-roof
Full Re-Roof Service includes removing all old Tiles, Battens, Breathable Membrane. We then re-build using new materials. We also upgrade the Dry Verge, Dry Ridge Systems and, if required, the gutters.
Repair or replace
We carry out all roofing repairs and upgrades. We cover minor roof tile replacements through to a complete roof replacement, if required. Sometimes, its more cost effective to Re Tile the full roof.
Fascias and soffits
Fascias are the vertical boards that are under the edge of the roof line. They are usually the board you see most of, looking up at a roof from street level. The soffit is the panel tucked underneath. We fit all new 18 mil replacement swish fascias, soffits and guttering, and we use ventilated soffits and over-fascia ventilation so the roof space can breathe.
Dry verge and dry ridge
We install or upgrade dry fix products like Dry Verge and Dry Ridge. These are the uPVC systems that hold the ridge and the gable edge without sand and cement, so there is no mortar to crack and drop off in a few winters.
Flat roofs
We use quality products for repairs and upgrades including the Firestone EPDM rubber roofing system. We also fit traditional felt roofing and GRP fibreglass. Which one suits depends on the roof, and we will bring samples so you can see the difference before you decide.
Chimneys, ridges and gutters
We also repair and re-bed chimneys, roof verges, embed ridge tiles, repair or upgrade fascias, soffits, gutters, and upgrade to dry verge and dry ridge systems.
Guarantees and insurance
We are fully insured. We have a long product guarantee on all items used on your roof. We are experienced in all aspects of domestic roofing, allowing us to provide guaranteed roof repairs and peace of mind with all our work.
