Upon your first call to Peter E Smith Builders we will carry out a site inspection on the wall tie installation and look for structural damage.

Fascias & Guttering is an important component to your roof. All run off water from your roof goes down into a gutter which then runs down a gutter pipe often into an awaiting drain. A fascia, often made from plastic, sits alongside the end of the roof overhanging the side of the building stopping any rain water dripping down the side of your building. Are you gutters painted? If so a good way to measure whether they need replacing is to see whether the paint is flaking or peeling? Peter E Smith can install an efficient guttering and fascia system to your roof, removing any possibility of future damage to the side of your building due to untamed rain water.

There is felt roofing, which is the most popular method of flat roofing and is often found on top of sheds, garage and out buildings. Whether the roof is big, small or flat, pitched or curved felt roofing can be used. This consists of a high performance built up felt with many different specifications depending on your budget. Rubber EPDM flat roofing is another method in which a single membrane adhered directly to the decking. This form of flat roofing has a life expectancy of 40 years. EPDM is also used as a cover for waterproof roofs.

A well managed project can lead to a lower budget for the build, which ultimately means a lower bill for you. Although our builders specialize in the construction of extensions, renovations, new builds, loft conversions and other major building services we are also more than capable to carry out general building services.
