Which flat roofs are common in Perth and Kinross?
Flat roofs in Perth and Kinross sit on newer estates where the first extension roofs are now being replaced, bungalows with flat-roofed side extensions and dormers and low-rise post-war blocks of flats. Scotland averages roughly 1,570 mm of rain a year, with the west far wetter than the east, so drainage, falls and wind uplift are part of every specification we write. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Building standards in Scotland
In Scotland a building warrant is usually needed for alterations, structural work and new roofs; like-for-like repairs to a covering can be exempt. Section 6 of the technical handbooks sets a domestic roof benchmark of 0.12 W/m²K, applied as far as reasonably practicable on an existing roof. In Perth and Kinross the application goes to Perth and Kinross Council (building standards). More on the rules.
How do you handle CDM, roof access and fragile surfaces?
Every job is planned under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, or CDM (NI) 2016 in Northern Ireland, with a construction phase plan and a method statement for the roof.
As a commercial client you have duties under CDM too, including passing on information about the building, such as drawings, details of previous roof work and the asbestos register. Buildings put up before 2000 can contain asbestos, so we ask for the register or a refurbishment survey before pricing a strip-out. If asbestos is found, a licensed specialist surveys and removes it before we start.
Roofs and rooflights are treated as fragile until a competent person confirms otherwise. Edge protection goes up on every job, rooflights and fragile sheets are covered or fenced off, and we agree safe access before work starts: scaffold, a tower, a powered access platform or a fixed access point where one is suitable.

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.
Can our existing roof be overlaid instead of stripped?
Often, if the survey shows the existing covering is sound, dry and firmly bonded. Wet insulation, a soft deck or several old layers mean a strip-out is the better long-term answer.
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.
