Overcladding and Built Up Systems: a cost-effective solution with minimum disruption to your business
Most industrial and commercial buildings will need some repair and maintenance over time. The overcladding and built-up approach is a relatively no-fuss option for businesses that require minimum disruption that allows for their workforce to maintain normal business operations.
At Retain Roofing, our overcladding can be utilised to enhance and improve the condition of your existing roof, prolonging its life. As an alternative to a full roof replacement, overcladding and built-up systems involve preserving the existing roof by adding another single skin, laid and fixed on top. Insulation is placed in between the existing and new sheets to improve the energy performance of the building.
This process guarantees that your building remains weather-proof and protected from the elements. The extra insulation increases energy efficiency and comes in a range of colours, designs and finishes. Above anything else, it’s a cost-effective alternative to fully replacing your roof. If you’d like to talk to someone about overcladding and building over your existing roof, please get in touch with the team at Retain Roofing at 0800 027 2244.
