What flat roof work do we do in Brierley Hill?

Single-ply membrane roofing

Single-ply often suits blocks and mixed-use buildings in Brierley Hill because no flame is used on the roof, which can make work around residents and businesses easier to plan. Hot-air welding still needs care, but the fire risk is lower than with torch-on.

GRP fibreglass roofing

GRP is a good fit in Brierley Hill for roofs with awkward shapes, short runs of upstand and lots of corners, because every detail is laminated in place rather than cut and glued. Where a sheet membrane would need many joins, fibreglass forms one continuous skin across the whole roof.

Extension and kitchen roofs

If you're fitting a new kitchen under an extension in Brierley Hill, that's a good time to replace the roof. It makes sense to rebuild the roof before fitting new units, ceilings and lighting below, and the insulation upgrade makes the room more comfortable all year.
