Slate roofs are a popular modern option when choosing a roofing finish. Their clean edges and smooth finish are good at staying clean, new and tidy.

In some instances it may be better to replace the entire roof, but in come cases if the rest of the roof is still in good condition then repairing might be the best option. We can assess the accessibility and materials needed to complete the job and supply a likely cost usually within a few days.
Rubber Roofing Dorset
Rubber roofs have become increasingly popular due to their durability in comparison to some of the other traditional flat roof materials. We have seen from modern developments that rubber roofing is quickly replacing felt and asphalt roofing options.

Corrugated roofing Dorset
Corrugated roofing is something that we often look to install on commercial, retail and other flat roof based builds where they need a cost efficient, flat roof with a lightweight structure, without the need for too much timber. They are often installed where steel constructions are built.

They may not last as long as some roofing types, but they still have a good lifespan, especially when using a quality, modern product.

Polycarbonate roofing refers specifically to using essentially plastic corrugated sheets. The advantage of this can be that they are light in weight, reasonably cheap, and quick to install. They are also available in flat sheet options which are corrugated inside a sandwich of two thinner sheets, this can offer an easier to clean solution and marginally better insulation properties than just a single sheet of polycarbonate roofing. Neither options tend to a long term solution but can be easily repaired or replaced in future.

By taking advantage of the strength and reliability of GRP and Fibreglass roofing the result tends to be a roof that lasts for a long time. It is also applied on site so our roofers will be working directly on the roof to construct. The finish is resistant to heat and frost and if well maintained will last for a very long time.
