GRP Fibreglass Roofing
GRP fibreglass is a durable, watertight solution ideal for flat roofs, terraces, and conservatories. Its seamless finish resists corrosion and lasts 25-30 years, with minimal maintenance required. Available in multiple colours, it provides energy efficiency when combined with insulation. Suitable for both domestic and commercial properties in Kent and East Sussex, this material offers cost-effective, long-term protection against weather damage.
Leadwork
Leadwork delivers long-lasting, corrosion-resistant solutions for flashing, valleys, and ornate features. As a highly malleable material, it adapts to complex roof profiles while maintaining structural integrity. Recyclable and durable for up to a century, lead is ideal for historical buildings and conservation projects. Our team ensures precision installation to English Heritage specifications, with a 25-year guarantee.
Kent Peg Tile & Slate
Kent peg tile and slate work preserves the aesthetic of heritage buildings while ensuring modern durability. We specialise in replacing or repairing traditional materials for listed properties, cottages, and stately homes. This method combines visual appeal with functionality, resisting weather damage and requiring minimal upkeep. All projects adhere to conservation standards with extended guarantees.
Roofing Repairs
We address leaks, weather damage, and structural issues with timely repairs. Services include replacing damaged tiles, re-bedding flashing, and reinforcing weakened areas. By identifying problems early, we prevent costly replacements. Our approach prioritises longevity and safety, using quality materials suited to both modern and traditional roofs across Kent and East Sussex.
Velux Windows
Velux installations enhance natural light and ventilation in loft conversions or flat roofs. We supply and fit energy-efficient roof windows with waterproof flashing to prevent leaks. These upgrades improve property value and living comfort, available in manual or electric operation. Projects include insulation adjustments and compliance with building regulations.
