INDUSTRIAL ROOFING OVERCLAD IN WEYMOUTH
Coverclad Services was contracted to overclad an existing industrial roof in Weymouth on behalf of an aquarium and attractions centre. The two roof slopes to the building in question were experiencing water ingress from multiple locations and the gutters were poorly designed and installed, and in need of immediate attention. So we dispatched a three man team of our industrial roofing and gutter experts to Weymouth for a two week period to complete the works.
The overall job description was to overclad the existing roof with 0.7mm plastisol coated metal roof sheets, screw fixed to a pre-galvanised grid system with rolls of insulation, and to install new pre-galvanised gutters 2mm thick to the full length of the North slope and part length of the South slope, plus adding new UPVC rainwater pipes sized to suit flow capacity.

The overall roof area was approximately 34m by 12m (4m to the eaves) ranging over two slopes, adjoining onto other units. Roof sheets only were used (no rooflights), plus 2mm pre-galvanised gutters were fitted together with new UPVC rainwater components.
