Which flat roofs are common in Carmarthenshire?
Flat roofs in Carmarthenshire sit on terraced streets with flat-roofed rear kitchens and bathrooms, shops with flat-roofed rear stores below flats and 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions. Wales averages roughly 1,460 mm of rain a year, among the wettest in Britain, so we design for steady run-off: proper falls, clear outlets and upstands well above the finished roof. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Building regulations in Wales
Welsh guidance is that most re-roofing needs building control approval, so it's worth checking whenever more than a quarter of a roof is replaced or repaired. Renovated roofs are upgraded to around 0.16 W/m²K where feasible, and new extension roofs are built to 0.13 W/m²K under the Welsh Approved Document L. In Carmarthenshire the application goes to Carmarthenshire County Council. More on the rules.
Can you work around our trading hours and site rules?
Yes. Most commercial roofs can be replaced while the building stays open, and we agree the programme with you before any work starts.
That normally means set working hours, delivery and skip positions that keep entrances and fire exits clear, and phasing the roof so each section is watertight before the team leaves site. Noisy tasks such as strip-out can be timed for quieter periods, and early starts or weekend working can be arranged where your site allows. We tell you in advance which areas below the roof may be affected, so stock and equipment can be protected or moved.
Where torch-on felt is specified, the team works under your hot works permit system, with a fire watch after the torch is put away. If your site does not allow naked flames, we specify a cold-applied, self-adhesive or other flame-free system instead. Tenants, alarm companies and mechanical contractors are coordinated through one named contact.
Do you offer condition surveys and phased budgets?
Yes. A condition survey with a written report is a paid service, guide £140–£280 for a typical single roof, with larger or multi-roof sites priced before we attend. A survey and quote for replacement work is free.
The report covers the covering, upstands, outlets, edges and rooflights, signs of ponding or wet insulation, and what needs doing now, soon and later. You can then plan a phased programme: urgent repairs first, then re-roofing in sections over one or more budget years, with each phase priced separately in your written quote.
Re-covering more than half of a roof over heated space usually triggers the thermal element rules, so the insulation is upgraded towards the renovation U-value where feasible; in England the non-domestic target is 0.18 W/m²K. We handle building control where it is needed. See building regulations and flat roof surveys.

What happens to air conditioning units and other roof plant?
Plant can often stay in place, with the new roof detailed around its supports. Where it has to be isolated and lifted, your mechanical contractor does that while we re-roof beneath it, and we agree the timing at survey stage.
Do you need a hot works permit?
Only if torch-on felt or other naked-flame work is used, in which case the team works under your permit system with a fire watch afterwards. Where hot works are not allowed, we specify a flame-free system such as a cold-applied membrane.
Who deals with building control on a commercial re-roof?
We do, where the work needs approval. Replacing more than half of a roof over heated space usually means upgrading the insulation towards the renovation U-value where feasible, which is 0.18 W/m²K for non-domestic buildings in England.
