Constant exposure to the elements however will inevitably take a toll on a property's covering. Signs that your roof might need some help include the presence of moss, algae, dirt, cracks, loose tiles and coverings, worn or decaying flashing, the presence of porous surfaces and stains on the roof's surface. If your roof is showing any signs of ageing, Glasgow Roofmasters' skilled roof restoration service can help your roof to regain its appearance and enjoy better protection for another 10 to 20 years. The Glasgow Roofmasters restoration service is based on experience, common sense, proper preparation and excellence of workmanship. With over 25 years of experience in the roofing trade, the company restores tiled, felt, membrane, slate and shingle roof coverings and accepts work on pitched and flat roofs of all types and sizes. No two roofs are alike, and we assess every roof on its own merits to establish which treatment, if any, will extend its lifespan. Each roof is inspected individually, and the extent of any deterioration is carefully identified. If your property has a roof that's getting to the end of its lifespan, but replacing it isn't immediately on the agenda, glassgow roof restoration may be a practical answer for property owners. Restorations typically include roof cleaning, repairs, surface treatment, joint renewal, replacement of broken or missing tiles and coverings and treatment of any porous surfaces. We will also treat flashings and other joints and penetrations, renew any joints and caulk lines and provide advice about maintenance. The exact work varies according to the age, condition and materials of the roof. The first step of the Glasgow roof restoration project involves a survey of the existing covering to identify the condition of the roof's coverings, flashings, ridges, penetrations and joins. A risk assessment and Safe Work Analysis is also carried out to identify any hazards or risks on the work site. We recommend the use of our free, no-obligation roof inspection to allow us to give you an accurate, personal quotation for your roof's restoration. Our surveyor examines the roof on the ground and from the roof to determine whether restoration is feasible and what treatment is appropriate. Any cracked or broken coverings are noted, and the existing condition of the joints, the roof's overall condition and its construction are all evaluated. Following the survey, the company's representative will explain the findings and a written quotation can be provided. This is not obligatory, and you are free to accept or decline the quote. Our experienced surveyor will explain what the quotation includes and what options are available so you can decide whether our recommendations are suitable for your property. Once accepted, work begins with the process of safely clean your existing roof. We give the roof a high-pressure hot water clean to clear away moss, dirt, algae, lichen and any other debris. An algaecide is then applied to inhibit biological growth. Once clean and dry, the roof can be repaired. Missing tiles and coverings are replaced, loose or broken tiles are restored, and any porous tiles are treated. We also check for damaged, loose or missing flashings, and potential corrosion areas are upgraded. We ensure ridges and joints are watertight, and after the roof is complete, a primer is applied and the roof is ready for the final protective treatment. The final coat can be applied in a choice of colours and textures, giving property owners an opportunity to enhance the property's appearance while adding yet another layer of protection. These top coats are designed to protect the roof from UV, heat, water, pollution and high winds and to resist moss, algae and other biological growth. When finished, a professional eye will be assured that the entire roof and its flashes have been restored, and the roof will have a fresh new look. A careful restoration should increase the lifespan of your roof for between 10 and 20 years depending on the roof's age, materials, position and level of deterioration. Restoring an existing roof is also more environmentally conscious than full replacement, and it can help limit the material taken to landfill. Once restoration is complete, the whole roof is checked and tested to ensure the required level of performance has been achieved. The site is cleaned up and removed, and advice is offered about maintenance. A five-year warranty covers the company's workmanship, and the supplied materials carry manufacturer guarantees. There are a variety of factors that influence Glasgow roof restoration cost, including the size and age of the property, the total roof area, type of materials used, height of the structure and its access, the pitch of the roof, the current condition of the roof and the amount of work needed to make good damage, the time of year, the number of flashings, the need for waste removal and any special requirements. It's therefore best to have an inspection so we can be more certain of a specific quotation, which can be provided after a free site survey. The importance of safety in any work on a roof cannot be overstated. We can provide a full SWA and risk assessment prior to starting work. We take into account the building height and height of the roof, weather, foot traffic, vehicles, the pitch of the roof, slippery areas and loose tiling, as well as the need to use scaffolding, harness points and other equipment. Our staff are experienced at working at height and are fully insured. Once any work is complete, a final inspection is carried out and the completed work is also tested. Waste is removed and we leave the site clear. We also give clients advice about maintaining their restored roof. Our company's staff members have a full five-year guarantee of workmanship while the actual coating supplied by the manufacturer has guarantees of up to 15 years.
