Mid Wales

The Marine Hotel on Aberystwyth's seafront in West Wales, sported various features making it difficult, if not impossible, for most roofers to access without damage. The problem area was a flat roof with air conditioning units on it beneath a fire escape walkway. We were able to strip, refurbish and fully waterproof the ENTIRE area (even WITH the AC units in just 4 days with no damage and no need to call out mechanical engineers to disconnect and recommission the units...

Ceredigion County Council case study:

This portacabin roof at Ceredigion County Council houses the canteen drying room. Its paper backed single ply roof covering had perished and was in serious need of refurbishment.
The first step was for us to strip the roof back and remove the ply paper backing, before the liquid polymer roof system could be installed.
The roof was then overlaid with a 15 year BBA approved high flexible fibreglass to create a reinforced liquid membrane roof
 

The old mineral felt roof of this Aberystwyth investment property was in such disrepair that it was in danger of being blown completely off at any time. With excellent tenants living below, the landlord was keen to remedy this problem with minimal disruption to his tenants. As he lived 90 miles from Aberystwyth, it would be difficult for him to be on site for considerable periods of time, so he also needed the roof fixed quickly.

This Aberystwyth flat roof was tired and needed refurbishment. The owners opted for an overlay system, installing the liquid polymer roof over the top of the existing roof.

To begin with, the flat roof was cleaned and pressure-washed to get rid of moss, chippings, and other debris; then primer was applied to ready the roof for its new liquid polymer covering. Detailed edges were applied.

In one day, the owners could now enjoy a guaranteed 15 year roofing system - all with no internal disruption to those below!

The Ceredigion County Council offices in Aberaeron, near Aberystwyth in West Wales were sheltering under a quickly perishing flat roof. The roof itself was of a substantial size, and was made from high grade mineral felt which, overall, was in excellent condition and exhibited good workmanship. It was, however, leaking water in several places.

We kept the existing mineral felt roof, overcoating with the liquid polymer system, sealing and waterproofing the roof while retaining as much of the existing roofing material as possible.

Polymer roofing is the ideal solution for portacabin roof repairs - it's fast, seamless & jointless (so no leaks), fully waterproof & weatherproof in a matter of hours, long-lasting and environmentally beneficial.

The leaking ashfelt parapet roof of this historic tower stairwell in Aberystwyth was in desperate need of repair and refurbishment. Now a listed building, the Old College was opened in 1872 as the original home of Aberystwyth University, Wales' first university, and so holds a special place in the hearts of the Welsh!

This flat roof repair and replacement project was undertaken at Aberaeron, not far from Aberystwyth, on the wet and windy West Wales coast.

The school computer room roof, now a leaking and rotting patchwork of repairs, originally had a flat ash felt roof that had fissure-cracked over the school’s sixty year life and been felted over at some point with non-vapour permeable felt.

The completed roof of this listed building in Aberystwyth shows just how versatile the liquid roofing system can be - it looks like lead, forms around details more easily than lead (it is 'perfect forming'), and indeed, often gets described as 'liquid lead'.

One of our more unusual roofing jobs! We were approached by Aberystwyth Cliff Railway to refurbish the roofs of their train carriages. Every day, these two well-used trains transport visitors up and down Constitution Hill in Aberystwyth, where they go to visit the world's largest Camera Obscura, to eat at the Consti Cafe, or to enjoy one of the stunning clifftop walks.
