Frequently Asked Questions

We’re here to help you and your organisation to get the best from your roofing, cladding, and work at height supplier – so here are a couple of our most frequently asked questions.

General Questions

We cover the full scope of roofing and cladding – surveys, remedial repairs, planned maintenance, full refurbishments, overcladding projects, and the safety systems you need to access it all safely. So whether you’ve got a leak that needs fixing today or you’re planning a complete envelope overhaul, we can help.

No. We work on everything from small reactive repairs to large programmes. Size doesn’t matter – what matters is what the building needs and what you need from us. A one-off roof fix gets the same attention as a major refurbishment.

Yes, both. But honestly, planned maintenance is where the real value is. It lets you catch problems early, plan properly and avoid those expensive scrambles later. That said, we’re here for the emergencies too – leaks, damage, urgent remedial work. We just think you’ll be happier avoiding them if you can.

Absolutely. A proper survey is where decisions should start, not end. We assess pitched and flat roofs, cladding systems, façades – whatever you need to understand. The outcome is a clear picture of what you’ve got, what’s actually wrong, and what your options are. It’s the foundation for making better choices.

We work with metal roofing, metal sheeting, composite panels, standing seam, liquid applied systems – the main commercial roofing types. The right choice depends on your building, its condition, how it’s being used and what you need it to do for the next 15-20 years. That’s the kind of conversation we have with you before anything gets specified.

We can work with single skin, twin skin, composite panels, traditional metal systems, rainscreens – pretty much the full range. The thing is, one system isn’t inherently better than another. It depends on what your building needs technically, what it should look like, what your budget allows, and what makes sense to maintain. We help you work through that.

We guide you. That’s part of the job. We look at your building’s type, its current state, what finish you want, what your budget is, what maintenance you’re willing to do, and what the site actually demands. We’ll tell you what makes sense and why. You can ignore our advice – it’s your building – but you’ll have a proper foundation for whatever you decide.

Yes. We handle roof access ladders, walkways, hatches, safety lines, guard rails and all the compliance testing that goes with it. So you’re not juggling multiple contractors – you can deal with one specialist across the whole envelope and the safety systems needed to actually access it safely.

We work nationwide across the UK. We’ve got a southern office in London and a northern office, so we’re properly positioned for projects across the country. Whatever sector you’re in, whatever the location, we tailor the solution to your site and your programme.

Now. Seriously. Small problems stay small only if you catch them early. Once water gets in, or deterioration spreads, or safety becomes a question – costs climb fast and options narrow. Whether it’s a leak you’ve noticed, something you’re worried about, or you’re planning a bigger refurbishment, getting advice early usually means you’ve got more options, better plans and less disruption. Don’t wait for it to become an emergency.
