Re-Roofing

ALL ROOFS HAVE A FINITE LIFESPAN

Eventually every roof will need to be replaced due to old age or other variables that may affect the lifespan of a roof.

Paton Roofing Services can provide advice on all aspects of re-roofing. A new roof will add value, improve the look and provide long term protection to a valuable asset.

Why would a roof fail?

  • Old Age
  • Wrong product used for the environment
  • Poor Maintenance
  • Structural issues / Damage
  • Poor Design

PLANNING A RE-ROOF

Careful planning and consideration when re-roofing can save a lot of time and money with ongoing problems with a failing roof.

Questions to ask when re-roofing:

  • Are there existing problems that can be remedied while re-roofing?
  • Does the roof structure need repairs or replacing?
  • What materials are suitable for the environment?
  • Do you need to replace spouting, guttering and other rainwater goods?
  • How will we re-roof a building while it is still in use?
  • What Health & Safety issues are there to consider?

RE-ROOF WITH A FUTURE PLAN

Taking a long term view in regard to the cost of re-roofing will save money in the long term.

Avoid the temptation of using cheap products or cutting corners on design as this will only give a short term solution.

Regular maintenance will increase the durability of the products used. Have a maintenance plan which includes inspecting and cleaning of the products used to give the roof as much of a lifespan as possible.
