Benefits of Fibreglass Roofs:
• Performance: Fibreglass roofs exhibit exceptional longevity, durability, and weatherproofing properties, allowing them to withstand the rigors of British weather conditions with ease. They provide reliable protection against rain, wind, and other environmental elements, ensuring the integrity of your roof for years to come.
•
Weight: Fibreglass roofs are remarkably lightweight, exerting minimal stress on the structural integrity of your building. This lightweight nature makes fibreglass roofs an ideal choice for various structures, reducing the load-bearing requirements and enhancing overall stability.
•
Low Maintenance: Once installed, fibreglass roofs require minimal upkeep, aside from occasional cleaning. Their low-maintenance nature makes them a practical and convenient roofing solution, allowing homeowners to enjoy peace of mind without the hassle of frequent maintenance tasks.
The Most Common Causes of Leaks on Your Fibreglass Roof:
• Water Ingress: Leaks often stem from water ingress, commonly caused by a crack in the top coat, faulty flashing, or cracked rendering. It's crucial to promptly address these issues to prevent water infiltration and potential damage to the fibreglass roofing structure.
• Water Pooling: Another common cause of leaks is water pooling on the surface of the fibreglass roofing. This pooling can occur due to inadequate runoff. Proper drainage systems and regular maintenance are essential to prevent water accumulation and associated damage.
•
Incorrect Preparation and Materials: Leaks may also result from incorrect preparation and materials used during the installation of the fibreglass roofing. This includes improper boarding installed before installation, which can compromise the integrity of the roofing system. It's vital to ensure proper preparation and the use of suitable materials to maintain the effectiveness and longevity of the fibreglass roof.

How do I know it’s time to replace my roof?
The internet is the worst place to ask this question. Every website will give you different advice. Call our team and we will come buy and carry out a free roof check. We will advise you of any work that does need doing and whether this could be carried out as a repair or whether you need a full replacement.
-
What’s the best roofing material?
The best roofing material is dependent on the job in hand. A flat roof would not have tiles and a pitched roof would. All roof types require different materials. We can advise you of what type of material is best for the job in question and we only use the best roofing materials. A roof is only as good as the finish.
