Roof systems

The right system for the roof.

We use sheet membranes, liquid waterproofing, spray-applied systems and protective coatings. The roof survey tells us which option suits the building.

Before work starts

What we check first.

The roof type, its overall condition and any previous repairs.

Where water is getting in and how far the damage has spread.

Drainage, outlets, safe access and how the building is used.

If the roof may contain asbestos, we identify the material and plan the work with the required controls.

Common questions

Commercial roofing in Manchester: FAQs

Do you cover commercial roofing across Manchester?+

Yes. We work across Manchester and Greater Manchester. Send us the site postcode, roof type and a short description of the problem and we’ll arrange the right next step.

Can a Trafford Park metal roof be refurbished instead of replaced?+

Potentially. Sheet integrity, corrosion, fasteners, laps, rooflights, gutters and any previous coating must be surveyed. Serviceable roofs may support repair and protective refurbishment; structurally failed sheets require another route.

How do you diagnose a recurring commercial roof leak in Manchester?+

We separate the internal symptom from the external entry point, then inspect likely paths including laps, penetrations, rooflights, parapets, gutters and internal outlets. Previous repairs and rainfall conditions are recorded.

Can roof work be phased around tenants or live operations?+

Often, but the method depends on access, internal risk, loading routes, noise, fumes or overspray, weather and emergency egress. These controls belong in the project plan, not as an afterthought.

Does Flat Roof Services cover Manchester?+

Yes. We take on commercial roofing work in Manchester. Send us the postcode, roof type and a short description of the problem and we’ll confirm availability.

What commercial roofing work do you carry out in Manchester?+

We survey and repair leaks, refurbish metal roofs, repair commercial gutters, assess asbestos-cement roofs, apply liquid and spray waterproofing systems, and replace roofs where repair is no longer sensible.

Can a commercial roof be refurbished instead of replaced?+

Often, yes. If the roof structure and surface are still serviceable, refurbishment can fix defects and extend the roof’s useful life. We inspect the roof before recommending repair, refurbishment or replacement.

How do you choose the right roofing system?+

We look at the existing roof, its condition, drainage, access and how the building is used. We then recommend a compatible system and explain why it suits the job.

How do I request a commercial roof assessment in Manchester?+

Send us the site postcode, a few photographs and a short description of the problem. If you know the roof type and approximate size, include those too.
