What flat roof work do we do in Dunblane?
Liquid-applied roofing
Where a building in Dunblane has an older asphalt or concrete roof that is sound but tiring, a compatible liquid system can sometimes refresh it. The key is matching the primer and system to the substrate and dealing with any blisters, cracks or poor falls before the membrane goes on.
Single-ply membrane roofing
For a commercial roof in Dunblane with rooflights, plant and outlets, single-ply's welded details give a consistent finish. Pre-formed corners, membrane-coated trims and welded kerbs are all made in the same material as the main roof, which keeps the roof consistent and simplifies any future repairs.
