Reasons to consider a new roof • Failing roof • water ingress • unseen damage. • Lack of insulation • freezing pipes in winter • overheating of services in hot summers • loss of energy • increasing carbon footprint.
Reasons to consider a new roof • Health and Safety • old asbestos and fibre cement roofs are fragile • access onto roof carried out by trained operatives. • Appearance • poor impression to visitors • retailers’ requirements
What are the Options? • Repair • Over – Roof • Replace the roof • Or get some Umbrellas and Buckets
Repair • Roof over 25 years old think carefully about spending on repairs. • corroded fixings • sealant will have turned to dust in the laps • rooflights will have lost their gel coating • metal roof end laps will be corroded and may be past repair. • health and safety – most falls from height are on maintenance – usually through a rooflight
What is an Over-roof To leave your existing roof covering in place and provide a new system over the top
Advantages of the Over-roof • Minimal disturbance to area below • Quick • Relatively low cost option • Provides a 40 year lifespan new roof covering
Asbestos roofs • Asbestos roofs –10% white asbestos • 50 years life expectancy (the newest models are 30 years old now) • Become very fragile with age • Remove the asbestos if at all possible – ever increasing costs of disposal
Asbestos Roofs • If removal is not an option, it can be over-roofed. • Issues are greater than with a metal roof: • Fragile roofs – preventing people and debris falling through • Dealing with Asbestos cement fibre release
Dealing with Falls from Height • Preferred option: • Safety Nets tied from the underside • usually difficult in a food factory environment • Safety line option: • safety lines and safety harness • difficult to provide a safe solution
The Problem • To develop a system that can be fitted at roof level. • To develop a system that has minimal disturbance to operations in factory below • To develop an economic system
Our Solution • Utilising easily available materials - steel mesh and a purposed designed installation rig. • Working in conjunction with the HSE, we have developed and tested a system that can be fitted from roof level – which will prevent a fall from height.
The Over Roof System • Phase 1 – fit safety mesh and ashbar
The Over Roof System • Phase 2 – Lay Insulation Quilt
The Over Roof System • Phase 3 - Lay new outer sheet
Over Roof Guidelines • Building Regs - U value 0.18 W/k • Tata (Corus) HPS Ultra provides 25 year no quibble product guarantee • Rooflights – difficult to get new roof in line when going over asbestos cement – 1016mm cover width v 1000mm on new roof • New rooflights will have to be triple skin to conform to Building Regulations
New Roofs for Old • Remove your old roof and fit a new roof
Keep the Customer dry and happy • We have completed hundreds of re-roofs whilst the client continues to carry out their business underneath • Morrison Gainsborough and Hyde • large supermarkets • full use of all floor area when asbestos sheeting removed and replaced with composite panels
Tax Relief on Removal of Asbestos • Recent replacement roof at Perkins • Cost of roof £1,293,103 • Utilising Tax relief roof cost £750,000 • Tax relief 28% x £1.2m x 150% = £543k • Client also saved £41,000 per annum on energy bills • Carbon saving 244 tonnes per annum
Flat Roofs • Average lifespan is less than 25 years • If existing decking is sound, consider overlaying • Insulation board is fixed over existing roof covering to upgrade U value • Outer layer of Single ply provides a 20 year guaranteed roof – life expectancy over 40 years
Budget Cost Guidelines • Over roof on metal roof £25 per m² • Over roof on Asbestos £35 per m² • Over lay flat roof single ply £60 per m² • Replace roof in composite £85 per m² • Based on meeting current Building Regulations and upgrading insulation to achieve 0.18W/k
