What this work involves
Survey covering, junctions and the structure beneath. A leak may appear away from its source. Coordinate maintenance with assessment of insulation and moisture conditions.
- Covering and junction survey
- Substrate and moisture
- Insulation and build-up
- Drainage and penetrations
- Safe access and temporary protection
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Test new facade material against substrate and existing details.
What the drawing needs to explain
Mark intact, damaged and unassessed areas on photographs. Add the old-to-new junction detail with proposed materials and treatment.
Allow for later maintenance
Keep product information and photographs of the assessed substrate. They support later inspection without reconstructing the original repair decision.
Which trade-off matters?
Full renewal creates a uniform appearance, while targeted repair preserves more existing material. Compare both using a sample area and assess technical compatibility too.
Cost factors for this service
Area, roof shape, material, access and substrate repairs determine the budget.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs, known leaks, approximate area and earlier work.
Questions about the work
Can new covering go over the existing layer?
It depends on material, condition, adhesion, moisture and the complete build-up. Have the roof assessed first.
