What this work involves
Survey covering, junctions and the structure beneath. A leak may appear away from its source. Coordinate maintenance with assessment of insulation and moisture conditions.
- Covering and junction survey
- Substrate and moisture
- Insulation and build-up
- Drainage and penetrations
- Safe access and temporary protection
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Coordinate envelope work with protection of completed interiors.
What the drawing needs to explain
Combine the design plan with logistics for storage, deliveries and protected zones. Identify who approves each interface before the next stage begins.
Allow for later maintenance
Create one handover dossier listing parties, products and maintenance points. Keep every component location traceable on current drawings.
Which trade-off matters?
Running many trades simultaneously can appear to save time but increases pressure on access and working space. Compare parallel work with a deliberate sequence by building section.
Cost factors for this service
Area, roof shape, material, access and substrate repairs determine the budget.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs, known leaks, approximate area and earlier work.
Questions about the work
Can new covering go over the existing layer?
It depends on material, condition, adhesion, moisture and the complete build-up. Have the roof assessed first.
