Flat Roofs

This residential property in Aberdyfi, on the West Wales coast (North Wales county Gwynedd LL35) was perfect for an extended balcony terrace / garage roof terrace above the parking area.

The final, spacious balcony was coated with the Poly Roof Protec 20 year system and enhanced with polygrip anti slip coating (car park grade to ensure long life & unrestricted use).

Gwenllian Morgan Court in Brecon in South Wales LD3 7ET needed refurbishment for the flat walkway-style areas of its rooftop (i.e. between slate areas).

As the photographs show, this was well within the capability of the polymer system - the main issue being creating a jointless, seamlessly waterproof seal when the roof is of two different materials.

This was, however, no problem. The final result is neat, watertight and…

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.

This new-build garage in Ceredigion, West Wales, needed fully decking and timber furring (also spelled firring) to create a tilt on the roof, ensuring good drainage. The roof adjoins the wall of the main house, which means particular u-values also needed to be observed.

The end result is a roof that will withstand even the toughest weather Wales can throw at it!

A 180m2 roof area of National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth is undergoing installation as part of a wider decarbonsation plan for the public sector.

The roof had to be refurbished with a long-lasting jointless and seamless roofing system as the entire roof will be underneath steel RSJs supporting a heat pump. The roof was mastic asphalt covered in chippings & moss. It needed to be cleared and de-chipped, before having all defects…

This single ply membrane roof at the University of Aberystwyth had been leaking for many years. After preparation works, including pressure washing to thoroughly clean the area, three splits were found, necessitating a roof replacement. Polymer roofing is a better-lasting material that doesn't split after time (the degradation process is slower and results in gradual 'chalking' rather than splits or lifts - meaning no water ingress).
