What flat roof work do we do in Warrenpoint?

Warm roof insulation upgrades

Kitchen extensions in Warrenpoint, as elsewhere, produce a lot of moisture from cooking. Under a cold flat roof, that moisture can condense on the deck. A warm roof keeps the deck warm and puts a vapour control layer in the way, which lowers the risk considerably.

Commercial flat roofing

A commercial re-roof in Warrenpoint has to fit around customers, staff and deliveries. We agree working hours, skip positions and access routes before we start, keep fire exits clear throughout, and choose a flame-free system where your site does not allow hot works near stock or occupied rooms.

Dormer roofs

If your dormer in Warrenpoint was added years ago with a basic felt roof and little insulation, it will tend to fail at the edges first, and they leave the loft room cold in winter and hot in summer. A warm-roof replacement deals with both problems at once.
