A truly spectacular spot for a roof terrace

This rural new-build hideaway in Kendal in the picturesque Lake District, Cumbria (LA9) has to be one of the most beautiful jobs we've had. The house overlooks woodlands and a small body of water, making it perfect for a rooftop terrace area.

The owners of this new roof settled on a 25 year Polyroof Protec polymer roof system in a special signal grey colour - a natural stone colour that fits well with the local environment.

Metal mobile portable telecoms unit

This metal mobile portable telecoms unit in North Devon required improvements to the roof.

The gutters, which were small, kept blocking. As this causes a range of serious problems, the gutters were removed. New drip trim and deep flow alloy gutters were fitted, creating a roof that will now channel water properly.

Following this, the entire roof was then encapsulated in poly roof Protec fiberglass, completing the roof.

We're highly experienced in installing warm roofs and flat roofs over more or less any size space, as many of our commercial projects, in particular, show.

Although not historically a flood prone area, heavy rain and flooding wrought by climate change resulted in two houses and three apartments being flooded to a depth of one metre. This led residents to take preventive measures to decrease their…

Completed roof

This new electricity substation in Hereford, built to improve power supply to the city's homes, was being built from scratch and needed a good, high-spec, fully weatherproof and long-lasting roof from the outset.

We used a guaranteed 20 year protection system, installation as shown in the pictures above.

The polymer system we used - Protec - is also ideal for reinstating existing power substations with zero fall, since Protec is…

Topcoat drying - this will provide the base for the composite decking

This seafront property in the Cornish town of Falmouth (TR11) required an overlay system for the installation of new composite decking along the entire terrace length. With its location, one of the key specifications for any installation is a very high degree of waterproofing and weather resistance / weatherproofing, which meant the polymer system was ideal.

In addition, the owners also needed a pool house vapour layered ready for the…
