Total renovation of pitched roofs

There's a lot involved in a total renovation of a pitched roof. The process of such a renovation is divided into several stages: first, the necessary preparations are made before the start of the dismantlement and further renovation.

A safe worksite is crucial

A crucial aspect of any renovation job is the creation of a safe worksite. The damaged or old roofing materials can then be safely removed. Rain gutters are also disassembled and disposed of with due care. Finally, we remove components such as old ridges, nails and screws.

Damaged rain gutters: repair or replace?

Before the start of the actual renovation work, a decision needs to be made about what to do with the existent gutters. In case of minor wear or damage, they don’t need to be replaced completely. Instead, our experts will repair the aluminium gutters to prolong their service life.

In case the rain gutters are renovated, we can manufacture the aluminium gutters at one go with our own gutter machine. The aluminium sheets are rolled into the desired shape on site. The rain gutters are stainless and available in various widths and colours, with our specialists always delivering bespoke solutions tailored to the client’s needs.

Then we begin to install the new roofing, with a range of options being available. The choice for roof shingles, corrugated roof sheets or another roofing type also depends on the bearing capacity of the foundations and walls. Roof shingles are lightweight, storm-proof and suitable for any roof type. Corrugated roof sheets are easily installable, available in various colours and 100% waterproof.

High-quality insulation made to measure

The next step is the installation of suitable roof insulation, such as sandwich panels. These panels have a high-performance cell structure and provide good value for money. We collaborate with reliable suppliers such as Kingspan, Rex Panels, ArcelorMittal and Joris Ide.

This way, our professionals make sure the indoor temperature in your home, business property or shed remains constant. An additional roofing underlay for protection is possible, but often not required since the insulation and roofing provide sufficient protection against the elements.

Finished with a bargeboard or ridge cap

To finish your roof, we can also install bargeboards and ridge caps. They protect the construction against rainwater and ensure sufficient airtightness. The ridge underlay ensures optimum sealing between outdoor and indoor air.
