Keeping your roofline - including guttering, cladding, fascias and soffits - in a well maintained condition helps you to ensure that your property is weatherproof and avoid repair work to the underlying wooden structures. Decorative features can also deteriorate rapidly if they are left in damp conditions. We can provide a local service to domestic and commercial property owners in Cumbria and North Lancashire to ensure that their roofline and guttering is regularly inspected and effectively cared for.
Working as we do in the UK, we are spoilt for choice when it comes to accessing natural slate from a number of prestigious quarries. Burlington blue-grey, and Westmorland green slates are quarried right here in the Lake District, while Welsh, Cornish and Scottish slates are also well known for their quality and durability. We also have the option of sourcing imported slate from Europe and farther afield if a particular texture or hue is required. This can also make using natural slate more affordable in comparison to British quarried slates.
A quality new roof can last for over 100 years. We use new slate from local sources, for example Burlington Blue or Westmorland Green slate which is in keeping with the local architecture. For other applications, we may source slate internationally, from Europe or South America. The process of creating a new roof generates less waste and the effect is stunning. We always use the highest quality materials, for example timber and fixings to ensure the durability of all our work.
Velux pride themselves on superior quality products and work with registered installers who can provide an installation service to match; we are one of those installers. With two decades of experience in fitting Velux windows into spaces where natural light is lacking, we are happy to advise you on the best Velux product for your requirements. Whether you have a flat or pitched roof, are converting an attic or simply looking to bring light into an area of your home where windows aren't an option.
We can use lead cladding as an alternative to tiles, PVC panelling or oak cladding and it has the benefit of durability - giving year round protection and remaining corrosion free when professionally installed and treated. It is a really good option for vertical panelling. We've installed lead cladding around dormer windows, to fascias and cornice work and can work on pitched and vertical surfaces. Lead capping and cornices are most often used for historic or listed buildings but it is a fantastic option to consider for any project due to its durability and longevity - outlasting concrete, stone, and membrane.
