Domestic Applications

  Spray foam insulation is used to solve roof problems, as well as providing excellent thermal insulation for home insulation, loft insulation, and attic insulation. Do any of these problems look familiar? These are just a few examples of the many roofing problems we encounter every week. Although many people can look at these pictures and just see the problems, here at Roofing Insulation Services we only see the solutions.  We offer national coverage so please don’t hesitate to contact us for a free, no obligation survey.

The Problem

  Although many of these problems may look daunting and extremely costly, we can offer a more cost-effective solution to the majority of these problems. Many people believe that these problems are only solved by means of a complete re-roof, however, the majority of these problems are caused by age and fatigue of the materials used in the construction of the roof.

  Due to the nature and purpose of a roof it is constantly exposed to all outside weather conditions and temperature variations. The construction of the majority of domestic roofs involves laying the slates/tiles overlapping and then nailing them to the wooden battens to keep them in place. Over years of exposure these nails start to fatigue and fail allowing the slates/tiles to slip and fall off the roof. Combined with this, the lead work that is used around chimneys and valleys to prevent water ingress is basically only a soft metal and is not designed to last the number of years that in many cases it has been on the roof.

The Solution

   When one of our installation teams arrives at your property, our highly skilled technicians will start by attending to all remedial aspects of the roof. This includes replacing any broken slates or tiles with the correct matching ones; removing ageing roofing materials, re-dressing/replacing chimney and valley leadwork and re-pointing ridges and hips, we also offer the option of fitting your choice of roof windows. We are experienced in fitting the entire range of Velux roof windows. When they are satisfied that the roof is ready, the process of applying the foam can begin. Our spray foam technology is applied as a liquid allowing it to reach every nook and cranny, when it cures (which is a matter of seconds) it forms a rigid layer approximately 30 times its original size that completely bonds all slates/tiles together and to the roof making your roof into one solid structure with far greater strength. By using Roofing Insulation Services to carry out your roof repairs you can have peace of mind that the job will be done to your satisfaction first time. We are so confident with our spray foam technology that we can offer you the customer a 25 year written guarantee against the possibility of future slippage of any tiles.

Insulation

  Our spray foam technology not only bonds your roof together but also provides one of the best sources of loft/roof insulation available. Due to its 95% closed cell construction it is up to three times more efficient as an insulator than fibreglass, leaving you with a warm roof in winter and cool roof in summer. These qualities make spray foam and Roofing Insulation Services the natural choice for your roofing and insulation problems. With our spray foam technology installed in your property, what was once a dirty, draughty loft space can be transformed into a clean, warm usable area of your property.
