Flat Roof Refurbishment

Does Your Building Require Flat Roof Refurbishment?

Many commercial and industrial buildings have flat roof areas. It may be a single ply membrane roof or a built up felt system that is in place, both offer different advantages and can vary in costs, depending on the build up of the system required. At roofclad systems we have teams of experts in both these types of flat roofing systems and can carry out a refurbishment of your flat roof to the highest standard.

While a flat roof provides your building with clean lines and a modern look, these types of roofs can present their own set of potential problems. There are tell-tale signs to look out for when inspecting your flat roof to see if it requires refurbishing. The most obvious sign your roof is in need of refurbishment is signs of water ingress within the building. Every roof has an age where it will begin to fail due to weathering and general wear and tear. Take a look at the signs we have identified below and if you think one or more of these are evident on your flat roof, then get in touch to see how we can help.

Our Flat Roof Refurbishment Services

There are a number of systems available for Commercial and Industrial Flat Roofing depending on your needs, from installation of a new roof to more of a general repair, waterproofing systems, and maintenance options.

If your premises need a new roof, we have a range of systems to suit all types of properties from Single-Ply options which are cost-effective and robust, to Liquid or Felt which provide a good solution for repairs:

check

Single Ply Roofing: Single-ply commercial roofs are suitable for a wide range of applications, including refurbishment projects. Options include insulated or single layers depending on the type of premises and budget. This type of flat roofing is very popular thanks in large part to its flexibility which can accommodate versatile designs, and its durability. This helps to provide maximum performance, and quick installation at an affordable cost with a long life expectancy. The quality of the products available for Single-Ply roofing has dramatically increased in recent years, particularly for large roof areas, making it a durable option for commercial buildings. The installation of this type of finish does not require a flame, which means that a hot works permit is not required to conduct the works. We install Single-Ply membranes such as Renolit, Sika Trocal and Fatra.

check

Built Up Felt Roofing: Commercial Felt roofing systems are suitable for a wide range of applications, including replacement and refurbishment projects. They can provide an insulated option to increase thermal performance or single layers, depending on your specifications. Today’s Felt has come a long way in recent years and is no longer associated with being a low quality product. Felt is a high-performance, polyester-based, elastomeric material and has a very high tensile strength that allows for any structural or thermal movement at roof level. The application process allows the system to be applied to most surfaces including timber, asphalt, felt, and metal. Felt Roofing can be installed using self adhesive or torch on techniques and these systems come with labour and material-backed guarantees, to ensure your Flat Roofing is watertight for a period of up to 35 years.We install Felt systems such as SIGNature, Garland, Icopal, Bauder, which all offer substantial warranties.

Liquid Applied Flat Roofing: A Liquid Coated Flat Roof is suitable for a wide range of applications, including refurbishment projects. They can be offered in an all-encompassing insulated option or single layers, depending on your specifications and budget. Liquid Roofing Systems are cold-applied systems for both cold and warm roof designs that cure into flexible waterproof coatings designed to adjust to fixings, seams, welds, and joints. This type of coating system is usually reinforced with secondary materials such as fibre-glass to provide additional tensile strength. Liquid Roofing can be applied to various materials including felt, concrete, metal, and more and they provide long-lasting protective solutions for all types of flat and pitched roofs, including skid-inhibiting walkways if required. Liquid Systems can sometimes be combined with a Single-Ply & Felt Roof to waterproof around challenging details for example steel columns protruding through a flat roof. The purpose of Liquid Flat Roofing is to provide a cost-effective method of waterproofing a new or existing roof and it can deliver up to 25 years of performance depending on the coating system used. Liquid Suppliers that are used but not limited to are Centaur Coatings & Tor Coatings.

Commercial Flat Roof Repair: We are also able to offer Flat Roofing Repair & Maintenance regardless of the size of your premises. Typical repair works conducted include liquid coating, felt repair, fixing replacement, and roof sheet replacement on a wide range of properties.
