Services
Pitched Roofs
We install and replace pitched roofs using traditional tiles or slates, offering expert advice on material selection. Our team handles complete roof replacements and smaller projects like porch extensions. All work meets modern building regulations while preserving architectural integrity.
Flat Roofs
Our flat roof solutions include repairs and replacements using durable materials like EPDM rubber or GRP fiberglass. We assess each roof's condition to recommend cost-effective options, ensuring proper drainage and long-term weatherproofing for residential and commercial properties.
Green Roofing
We design and install green roofs that provide insulation, reduce urban heat, and improve biodiversity. These systems combine vegetation with waterproofing layers, offering sustainable solutions for new builds and retrofits while complying with environmental building standards.
New Builds
Specialising in new residential and commercial developments, we deliver complete roofing packages including solar panel integration. Our team works closely with main contractors to meet project timelines, recently completing a CORC-nominated roof project ahead of schedule.
Repairs & Maintenance
We address urgent issues like leaks, storm damage, and missing tiles with prompt inspections and repairs. Our maintenance services extend roof lifespans through gutter cleaning, fascia repairs, and comprehensive assessments to prevent future problems.
