This metal mobile portable telecoms unit in North Devon required improvements to the roof.

The gutters, which were small, kept blocking. As this causes a range of serious problems, the gutters were removed. New drip trim and deep flow alloy gutters were fitted, creating a roof that will now channel water properly.

Following this, the entire roof was then encapsulated in poly roof Protec fiberglass, completing the roof.

This residential car park in Belsize Park, Hampstead Heath, Camden (NW3) suffered a serious flood from the upper main road due to on-street rainwater drains being blocked solid from lack of maintenance. Although not historically a flood prone area, heavy rain and flooding wrought by climate change resulted in two houses and three apartments being flooded to a depth of one metre. This led residents to take preventive measures to decrease their reliance on external drain maintenance.

This portable cabin style warehouse office block on a small industrial estate at Berkeley Heath between Bristol and Gloucester (GL13 9EU) needed its roof refurbished.

As usual, we began by meticulously going over the existing roof, clearing debris, pressure-cleaning, making repairs, and so on. Only then do we apply base coat, fully sealing the area. We then applied a high-spec, jointless, seamless top coat that makes water ingress impossible and which is fully fireproof, weatherproof, UV proof, waterproof and more.

This small terrace area inside a roofspace in Essex, was quite straightforward for the polymer system despite the difficulties of uneven shape space and access. As you can see from the photo, the level, jointless and seamless finish is "perfect forming" even around curves and in tight spaces.

As with all our polymer roofs, this terrace room-in-a-roof was completely mechanically cured within 72 hrs, waterproof, weatherproof and safe to walk in within just a few hours, and is guaranteed to last.

This small flat roof on an electrical room in rural Essex, was straightforward for the polymer system despite its small size and the heatwave at the time! As you can see from the photos, the polymer system's built-in flexibility creates a level, jointless and seamless finish that is "perfect forming" around details even at small scale.

As with all our polymer roofs, domestic and commercial, this electrical room roof was fully mechanically cured within 72 hrs, waterproof, UV proof and safe to walk in within a few hours, and is guaranteed to last.

This large polymer flat roof on commercial shop premises in Essex, posed no problem for the polymer system despite its size and prominent upstands and walls. As you can see from the photo the polymer system's built-in flexibility creates a level, jointless and seamless finish that is "perfect forming" around details.

As with all our polymer roofs, domestic and commercial, this shop roof was fully mechanically cured within 72 hrs, waterproof, UV proof and safe to walk in within a few hours, and is guaranteed to last.

This polymer flat roof on a school outbuilding roof in Essex, was relatively straightforward despite overhanging trees and the (minor) central ventilation pipe. As you can see from first photo the underlying surface had numerous gaps and uneven points, with the later photographs demonstrating how well the polymer system's inherent flexibility levels all of this out, creating a perfect jointless and seamless finish.

This new roof extension on a roof in Brentwood, Essex, was relatively straightforward despite the prominent central skylight and the fact it adjoins the main roof. The polymer system's inherent flexibility means details and joins are no problem.

As the photo shows, the finished roof is jointless and seamless, and "perfect forming" around the central skylight. It was also fully mechanically cured within 72 hrs, fully waterproof and weatherproof within a few hours, and is guaranteed to last.

Sadly, schools are all-too-common victims of metal roof theft, especially lead - see this one in Skelmersdale and this one in Swindon, the latter of which resulted in the collapse of three classroom roofs, fortunately without any injuries. These articles highlight both the scale of the problem and the dangers metal theft can pose. With schools, it is most often children who are at risk. 

This terrace refurb case study demonstrates just how flexible the polymer system can be. This smart property in Lexham Gardens in South Kensington, London W8, had several exterior areas showing significant signs of degradation and pooling. These ranged from very narrow areas fronting the property to a patio seating area providing usable outdoor space.
