Why Suffolk roofs fail

Period high-street buildings and village housing.

Rot at eaves and fascia
Persistent damp shows up first at eaves timbers on period high-street buildings around Needham Market, so the deck edge gets checked before re-covering.
Domestic and commercial in one visit
Homes and small commercial premises in Needham Market are quoted on the same terms, inspection first and written specification second.
Moss and blocked valleys
Damp valley air around Needham Market builds moss quickly, which holds water against tiles and blocks valley runs.
Leadwork at abutments
Cottages in and around Needham Market, 8 miles from Ipswich, often have short-life lead or cement fillets that need replacing with correctly sized lead.

Materials and systems we use

EPDM rubber membrane: A single sheet of rubber for Needham Market extensions, dormers and garages, with no seams running across the field of the roof.
Natural and fibre-cement slate: Fitted on period and conservation property in Needham Market, nailed with copper or stainless and detailed with lead soakers at every abutment.
Torch-on felt systems: Multi-layer bitumen for the larger flats and outbuildings around Needham Market where a tough, easily repaired finish suits the budget.
Code-rated lead: Correctly coded lead for the flashings, soakers, valleys and chimney work on Needham Market roofs, in place of a cement fillet that cracks again.
