Industrial Roofing Repairs

Industrial roofing comes in many forms, and each type needs specific knowledge to repair correctly. We've worked with practically every roofing system you'll find on commercial and industrial buildings.

Metal roofing remains popular in warehouses and factories because it's tough and relatively affordable. Steel sheets, aluminium panels, and standing seam systems all have their place. The problem is they're vulnerable to corrosion, especially at cut edges where the protective coating gets damaged during installation.

Membrane systems like TPO and EPDM cover countless flat roofs across the UK. These single-ply materials work well when installed properly, but punctures, seam failures, and UV degradation cause problems over time. Modified bitumen offers better puncture resistance but can crack and blister with age.

Then there's asbestos cement, still present on many older industrial buildings. We handle asbestos roofing with full safety compliance, offering both encapsulation and replacement options depending on your needs and budget.

Many industrial buildings built before 2000 still have asbestos cement roofs. This material was popular because it was cheap, durable, and fire-resistant, but we now know it poses serious health risks when fibres become airborne.

We're fully licensed to work with asbestos roofing and follow strict HSE regulations on every job. Our team is fully trained in safe handling procedures and uses proper safety equipment throughout.

Encapsulation offers a way to seal asbestos roofing in place, preventing fibre release while extending the roof's life. We clean the surface, repair any damage, and apply specialist encapsulation coatings that lock the fibres in. This approach costs less than removal and can buy you years of extra service.

When asbestos roofing reaches the end of its life or damage becomes too severe, safe removal and replacement is the answer for those asking, can you repair asbestos roofing. We handle the entire process including compliant disposal, then install modern roofing materials that improve safety, energy efficiency, and performance.

Roughly 40 percent of heat loss in commercial and industrial buildings links back to poorly maintained or damaged roofing systems. Replacing old asbestos roofs with properly insulated modern alternatives cuts heating costs significantly.

Wall cladding protects your industrial building's walls from weather, impact, and wear. When cladding fails, water gets behind it, insulation gets soaked, and the whole building envelope suffers.

We repair damaged cladding panels, replace missing sections, and restore the seals that keep weather out. Different cladding systems need different approaches—some use interlocking panels while others rely on seals and fasteners to stay watertight.

Checking insulation condition matters because wet insulation loses all its thermal value. If we find moisture problems during cladding repairs, we address the source, dry everything out, and replace damaged insulation before reinstalling cladding panels.

Regular cladding maintenance extends the life of your building envelope and maintains thermal performance. Catching small problems early prevents them from becoming major structural issues.

Flashings around vents, skylights, roof edges, and other penetrations require specialist attention. These details interrupt the roof's waterproof layer, so they need extra care to stay sealed.

Old flashings crack, seals fail, and fasteners work loose. We inspect every penetration on your roof, looking for gaps, damage, or signs of water entry. Failed flashings get removed completely, and we install new materials properly lapped and sealed into the roofing system.

Penetration sealing uses flexible, weatherproof materials that accommodate movement without tearing or opening gaps. HVAC equipment, pipe stacks, electrical conduits, and other roof-mounted items all need proper sealing where they pass through the roof.

Getting these details right makes the difference between a truly waterproof roof and one that leaks at every penetration. We take the time to do it properly.

When your industrial roof reaches the end of its life but the building structure remains sound, overcladding offers an alternative to complete replacement. This approach installs a new roofing system over the existing roof, giving you enhanced insulation, protection, and lifespan.

We start by assessing whether your existing roof and structure can support overcladding. The roof deck needs to be in reasonable condition, and the building must be able to carry the additional weight. Assuming these checks pass, we can proceed.

The old roof gets cleaned and repaired as needed, then we install insulation layers followed by new cladding panels. This creates a completely renewed roof with significantly better thermal performance than the original. Energy efficiency improvements from overcladding can reduce heating costs by 20 to 30 percent or more.

Overcladding enhances insulation, protection, and overall lifespan for ageing or heavily damaged industrial roofs. It often costs less than complete removal and replacement while delivering comparable results.

Industrial roofing repair costs vary based on several factors, and understanding these helps you plan your budget and assess value. We price all our work fairly while delivering high quality services that last.

The cost of industrial roofing services ranges from £46.00 to £164.00 per square metre depending on the repair type and materials involved. Simple patch repairs on accessible areas cost toward the lower end, while complex work involving specialist materials and difficult access costs more.

Material choice significantly affects pricing. Standard repair materials cost less than premium systems, but premium materials often deliver better long-term performance. We help you balance upfront costs against long-term value based on your building's needs and your budget.

Labour requirements depend on repair complexity, site access, and safety measures needed. Working at height, handling hazardous materials like asbestos, and dealing with complex roof configurations all increase labour time and costs.

Services such as roof surveys, minor repairs, and routine maintenance often have fixed or standardised fees that we can quote quickly. Cut edge corrosion treatment and gutter lining are usually priced per linear metre, making estimates straightforward once we measure the work area.

Our competitive pricing reflects the value we deliver. High quality materials and advanced repair techniques ensure the roof's durability, efficiency, and long-term value. We'd rather do the job once properly than return repeatedly to fix poor work.

Reactive roof repairs typically cost three to five times more than planned preventative maintenance due to emergency callouts, business downtime, and collateral water damage. Investing in timely repairs saves money compared to waiting until problems become emergencies.

Properly conducted repairs can extend a roof's lifespan by up to 25 years, significantly reducing long-term upkeep costs. That's not marketing spin—it's what happens when you catch problems early and fix them right.

A well-executed industrial roof repair can extend the lifespan of a roof by 10 to 15 years depending on the material and condition. Compare that to complete replacement costs and the value becomes crystal clear.

Energy efficiency improvements deliver ongoing savings. Installing or repairing insulation during industrial roof work can reduce a building's energy consumption by up to 25 percent. Those savings add up month after month, year after year.

Avoiding business disruption matters tremendously. Water damage shuts down operations, ruins stock, and creates safety hazards for your people. Maintaining your roof with minimal disruption keeps your business running smoothly without unexpected closures or emergency repairs.

Industrial roofs with regular inspections are up to 50 percent less likely to experience major leaks or structural issues. Prevention beats reaction every time, both in convenience and cost effectiveness.

Safety improvements shouldn't be overlooked either. A professionally repaired industrial roof reduces slip hazards from leaks, prevents internal mould growth that affects health, eliminates electrical risks from water ingress, and maintains structural stability. These factors protect your people and reduce liability.

Long term performance comes from using quality materials and expert installation. We focus on repairs that deliver lasting results rather than temporary fixes that fail within months.
