The repair, conservation and restoration of your precious building demands the highest standard of workmanship and the most suitable methods and materials to be selected for each individual task. Most the products we use are natural building materials and in keeping with the original fabric of the building. Like traditional lime mortars, lime mortar can be used in conjunction with modern fixing techniques to create a finish which is both sympathetic to the existing masonry yet durable enough to withstand the elements for many more years to come unlike
Hard cementitious mortars can be as harmful to a building as having completely open joints. The natural porosity of stone means that an element of water soaking will always occur. This only becomes a problem however when this water cannot escape.
An unsuitable cement mortar joint creates a hard barrier around the stone trapping moisture within the fabric.
This will eventually start to erode the stone as it forces it’s way back into the atmosphere. In extreme cases the freezing temperatures outside cause the water to expand and blow the face off the masonry resulting in unsightly damage and often structural issues.

Slate and Tile Roof Installation
Our roof installation services include brand-new tile or slate roofs for properties
Roof slating is used throughout the country and is known for its durability against the elements and providing a clean, professional finish to the roof. Not only does roof slating absorb very little moisture, it’s strong enough to withstand high impact wind and the deterioration caused by freezing and thawing. Better still, it adds a timeless aesthetic that improves the appearance of any property. Many people invest in a new slate roof as it adds value to the property, often paying for itself in terms of value added.
Simply put, you’ll struggle to find a more durable and attractive option for a new roof that slating. Slating lasts for many decades and will add significant value to a property, making it a worthwhile investment for most. Tile roofing is a more affordable option than slating yet still a great choice for a new roof. Made from concrete or clay, tiles are available in many styles and colours and are often preferred for modern properties. They provide the same level of weatherproofing as slating and last just as long, protecting against wind, rain, and frost. Again, installing a new tiled roof adds significant value to a property, making it a worthwhile investment in most instances.

Modern Flat Roofing Construction
Flat roofing has a bad reputation for being prone to leaks, high maintenance costs and collection points after high winds. However modern flat roofing has moved past this and with the use of new construction methods and material technology. Because of this, flat roofing is once again becoming a popular choice.
And because of modern techniques and materials, the cost of fitting a flat roof has also been reduced while peace of mind can be had thanks to improved and extended guarantees from the manufacturers of the roofing materials. While these advancements have made flat roofs more attractive options one again, we always maintain that it is important to inspect your roof regularly.
The Problems with older Flat Roofing
With older flat roofs (and some poorly constructed new flat roofers by lesser quality roofers), the main problems that owners had to deal with were leaks, ponding and general wear and tear of the roof. Flat roofing is made up of a membrane which is applied on top of a horizontal base which itself is fixed to ceiling joists. If left unchecked, the ponding issue can build up – quite literally – and speed up the issue. As with more weight, you get more of a bulge and with that you get more water build up, biological matter build up and the attraction of birds and therefore fouling which can lead to biohazard risks.
Considering all of this, it is little wonder that we provide such a comprehensive flat roof repair service for residential and commercial properties. Whether it is to repair and replace existing flat roofing or to build a completely new flat roof as part of a home extension; with us you know that you have the very best in both service and quality.
Why has my flat roof begun to leak?
Older flat roofing is well known for leaking and water damage – so much so that home insurance policies general ask if you have a flat roof as part of your home insurance questionnaire. A leak in a flat roof can come from a number of possible causes:
Ponding: This is where ineffective drainage has caused a pond to develop on your flat roof. Ponding in excess of 25mm will begin to cause significant damage if it is not dealt with quickly.
Gravel: Early flat roof fittings were covered with a protective layer of gravel. If you have noticed a discolouration in the gravel in one particular location of your flat roof, it may be because water is filtering through the outer layers of the roof and will begin creating water damage to the inside of your home. If you notice that the gravel in part of your flat roof is a different colour, act now by contacting us today.
Time: Flat roofs are not built to last forever. If they are properly maintained then they will obviously last longer (which is one of the reasons we always advise that you regularly check your flat roof) but if your roof has poor drainage then it will suffer from ponding which during winter months can turn to ice and the simple increase in weight can begin to create issues. Storm damage and vegetation growth if not dealt with can all weaken the strength of your flat roof.
Should I replace my flat roof with a new version?
It is a difficult question to answer and it really depends on the quality of the workmanship of your current flat roof and what state of disrepair it is currently in. A bit like a car being a write off, it may be that the cost to properly repair a flat roof versus the cost of fitting a new one can be too high.
If you have a flat roof and have noticed that it is beginning to fail and/or leaking then call us
today. We are a local, reliable, recommended and qualified roofer that specialises in roof repairs and maintenance.
