Repairing where possible and upgrading to new systems which are more beneficial, durable and no maintenance.
We carry out repairs to the fascias and soffits, replacing any damaged and rotting wood.
We also upgrade to new upvc systems which have many more advantages over the older wooden systems.
The new upgrades require no regular maintenance, unlike the wooden fascias and soffits. They are much more durable and waterproof. The new upgrades also help keep the birds from nesting. Therefore, helping prevent water ingress and damage to the roofline and loft space.
New builds generally have the newer systems, and older buildings can be converted to the new fascias and soffits.
Generally the gutters are changed at the same time.
Gutters play a very important part in keeping properties dry. Rain falls onto the roof and disperses through the gutter system. Any blockages in the gutters can cause numerous problems, the common one is dampness to the property, which is a health hazard and also causes deterioration of the property.
Gutter blockages are often a build up of dirt, debris, leaves, broken tiles, nests etc., if the rain water cannot flow through the gutters it will disperse and damage will occur. We do offer a gutter cleaning service, and would recommend the gutters to be cleaned twice a year ideally.
We carry out gutter repairs and downpipe repairs.
We also upgrade to the new gutter systems which have more durability.
There are choices on the type, style, and colour of guttering.
We do carry out roof verge repairs and re-bed ridge tiles.
We also install dry roofing systems, called 'dry' because they are not held in place by 'wet' mortar.
Dry verge systems and dry ridge systems are much more practical, functional and have many advantages over the mortar based fixings.
Dry ridge systems are mechanically fixed into position and are therefore, much more weatherproof and require no regular maintenance.
Both systems are more durable, waterproof, and the verges are protected against birds nesting so keeps the water from seeping in and causing problems.
They are more expensive to install but work out much more cost effective in the long run as maintenance is not required.
We carry out flat roof repairs and also install new flat roofs.
Traditional Felt Roofing
Ideal roofing material for sheds and garages. This is the cheapest option of roofing material and doesn't last as long as the epdm rubber roofing but is stands the test of time and is a popular product. Depending on weather conditions a tradtional felt roof lasts on average 6 years but can last longer and can be repaired.
EPDM Rubber Roofing
This is also an ideal material for a number of flat roofed buildings, sheds, garages, outbuildings, porches or above bay windows.
EPDM rubber roofing is a little more expensive to install but it does last much longer than the traditional felt roofing and so is much more cost effective. On average 20 - 25 years, but this can be much longer, depending on weather conditions.

We supply and install all types of doors and windows, from single type doors to sliding, french and conservatory doors.
Windows are available in different styles and openings.
We build brick walls. Brick walls are more expensive in materials and installing but are a more permanent feature and last for an incredibly long time. Brick walls are useful for providing boundaries between neighbouring properties.
Brick can be used in conjunction with other materials when providing privacy, allowing for different height structures. Fencing, concrete and metal can add interest as well as being functional.
Brick work provides more strength when used as a retaining wall in areas that are built up, especially in gardens that have a natural slope.
Brick work is ideal in the garden to help break up areas, provide seating and planting beds.
We also re-point brick walls, and chimney stacks.
We build garden extensions.
We carry out rendering and painting of the exterior surfaces of a property.
Give your property a facelift, freshen it up with a new coat of paint!
Preparation is the key to all external painting and to ensure a quality finish.
We prepare the outside walls by cleaning and removing any debris, dirt and moss etc.
We repair any blemishes that need to be carried out, before we can start to paint the surface.
There are choices of the type of paint used and an array of colours to choose from.
