If a fault appears in covered work, we come back and put it right. No quibbling, no re-charge.
External work with moderate noise. We sheet below the work area and clear debris daily. You do not need to stay home for external work - we just need power and access agreed in advance.
Most work runs year-round. Specific materials may need dry or above-freezing conditions. Trent Valley humidity and East Midlands freeze-thaw cycling.
We have worked across every Nottingham postcode for over 20 years. Commercial Roofing demands specific knowledge of local housing stock, materials and weather patterns. Properties on the Arnold ridge face different conditions to those in the Trent Valley at Colwick. Victorian terraces in Sherwood need different specifications to 1960s estates in Clifton. We know these differences and specify accordingly.

Industrial units on trading estates at Colwick, Netherfield and Bulwell. Retail premises across the Victoria Centre and Broadmarsh areas. Offices in the city centre and Nottingham Business Park. Schools and community buildings across every suburb. Each sector has different requirements. Industrial needs cost-effective waterproofing over large areas. Retail needs minimal disruption during trading hours. Schools need holiday-period scheduling.
Any commercial building constructed before 2000 may contain asbestos in roof covering, soffits or insulation. The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 require a management survey before routine maintenance and a refurbishment survey before intrusive work. We do not remove asbestos. We refer to licensed removal contractors and coordinate roofing work to follow clearance. This is not optional. It is a legal requirement that protects workers and building occupants.
Commercial roof maintenance programmes cover annual survey, gutter and drainage clearance, minor repairs, and a written condition report with a 5-year forecast. Programmes start at £500 per year depending on building size. Planned maintenance extends roof life by 30-50 percent, reduces emergency callout costs, and provides documentation for insurance and compliance purposes.
Every job begins with a thorough inspection from the roof, not from the ground. We check every tile, flashing, valley, ridge line, chimney, gutter, fascia, soffit and roof space timber. You receive a written report with photographs explaining what we found, what needs doing, what can wait, and what it will cost. We never inflate a quote to cover contingencies. If we find additional work during the job, we photograph it, explain it, and get your approval before proceeding. The quoted price is the price you pay unless you authorise extras.
We specify every material for the application and exposure. Stainless steel fixings where iron would corrode within decades. Code 5 lead where code 3 would fatigue within 15 years. Flexible adhesive where cement mortar would crack within 5 winters. Breathable membrane where bituminous felt would trap condensation. These choices add marginally to each job but dramatically extend the interval between repairs. Over 10-20 years, the correct specification is always the cheaper option because the work does not need repeating.
