Fibreglass Roofing
Our fibreglass roofing system uses Lloyds-approved marine-grade resin, 4-5mm thick for superior durability. Installed without preferred trims, it resists leaks and suits flat roofs, coping walls, and garden rooms. Backed by a 25-year guarantee, this solution combines modern materials with our expertise since 2002.
New Roofs
We replace aged roofs with breathable membranes, tanalised batons, and slate or tile finishes. Our process ensures aesthetic harmony with property age and surroundings, including lead flashing for secure, long-lasting installations tailored to each home or business.
Roof Repairs
From missing slates to storm damage, we provide targeted repairs using matched materials. We prioritise cost-effective solutions over replacements, with rapid response to water damage risks and support for insurance claims.
Roof Maintenance
Regular maintenance services include gutter clearing, downpipe blockage removal, and bird nest prevention. These checks extend roof lifespan and prevent minor issues from escalating into costly repairs.
Storm Damage Repairs
We offer urgent repairs for storm-damaged roofs, including broken tiles or slates. Our team liaises with insurance assessors to streamline claims, ensuring swift restoration and minimising water damage risks.
