Here is a brief explanation of some terms used above:

Flat Roofs

Flat roofs covered in traditional felt have always created problems. Today however CRB Roofing Services use high performance non-rip polyester felts and CRB Roofing Services highly recommend using hot bitumen.

CRB Roofing Services use aluminium solar reflective solution rather than using loose chippings. You can walk on this method without penetrating the felt. Walking on loose chippings can cause damage which allows water to seep through the felt, and as traditionally the decking would be chipboard that would rot, there is danger of damage in the supporting joists. This won't happen with our system.

CRB Roofing Services also offer a mineral surface non-rip top cover finish with a fifteen year guarantee, which is by far the best flat roofing system available.

CRB Roofing are experts in flat roof replacement and repairs. All our work is of the highest standards and you can expect a long guarantee.

Chimney Stacks

Chimney stacks are vulnerable to inclement weather conditions and should be checked regularly for any potential problems, as should lead flashing and pointing. If repairs are carried out as soon as they are required, rather than allowing the problems to get worse, further dampness penetrating can be prevented.

Tiled Roofs/New Roofs

Roof tiles are the most common covering for pitched roofs, these interlock, are easy to fit and are very durable. They come in a wide range of colours, design and materials - slate, handmade clay, and concrete. CRB Roofing Services are able to match most tiles for replacement or repair.

Ridge tiles are the angled tiles which line the top of the roof, also known as coping stones, these come in a wide range of colours and design. With ageing and high winds, these often slip and require repointing to ensure a leak proof seal.

Guttering

The purpose of guttering is to channel rain water from the roof into the drainage system through a downpipe. This system helps to stop the walls of the house becoming saturated and causing problems with dampness.

Traditionally guttering was cast iron which in time corrodes and can't be repaired. CRB Roofing advise complete replacement of the old damaged guttering with new uPVC guttering. Concrete gutters can be relined using heavy compound aqua seal.

uPVC Fascias

uPVC fascias, soffits and barge boards, provide a practical long-term answer to the problem of wood rot and decay, replacing traditional timber. Make your house look like new again with a total replacement of all that old, rotten wood.

Lead Flashing

This is the point where a flat roof or pitched roof meets the surrounding brickwork. Its main advantage is that it can be shaped and flat formed to the shaped profile of the roof surface. It is extremely durable, but it can be damaged by extreme weather, allowing water penetration. Unchecked, this leakage wets the roof structure and can drip onto the ceiling areas causing structural damage. CRB Roofing will identify worn or damaged roof flashing and repair or replace it before structural damage occurs.

Gullies Cleared - Blocked Gutters/Blocked Gullies

Gutters are an important part of your home's weather proofing system. Every year leaves, moss, bird nests, old tennis balls and much more gets washed off the roof into our gutters. This can build up at an alarming rate and can cause damage to the guttering itself or to your property.

CRB Roofing Services recommend you have your gutters cleaned at least once a year to keep them in good condition and free flowing.

Also Gullies or Grids, the drains at the bottom of your property where the rain water down spouts and kitchen and bathroom waste pipes discharge into should also be well maintained. Blocked gullies will create serious problems and may cause flooding and bad smells.

Health and safety for the homeowner and business premises is paramount. Don't ignore the law!

Maintain you gutters and gullies to save the expense of serious repairs to your property, not only the brickwork but the interior decorating and ceilings.

Hot Works/Torch-on Roofing

Single layer torch-on, and torch-on materials used as a cap sheet to multi-layer roofing must be fully and continuously bonded. The quality of the bond from torching must compare with the quality achieved by pour and roll techniques. In fact torching should be regarded as a form of pour and roll. The heated bitumen must pour down the front of the roll and form sufficient flow to provide a continuous and adequate bead of molten bitumen across the full width of the product. When correctly applied, a bead of bitumen will appear from under the lap and will be visible at all times. If the bead is not visible it must be assumed that a satisfactory bond has not been achieved and the material must be reheated and re-sealed. The bead of bitumen at the laps will always be visible on completed work. There is no question of leaving clean laps.
