Agricultural Roofing in Fairford, Gloucestershire

Imagine waking up after a heavy Gloucestershire downpour only to find damp patches appearing on your stored hay or a puddle forming near your electricals. It's a nightmare nobody needs. Most farm owners we chat with tell us they're looking for a fix that actually lasts, rather than a quick patch-up that fails by next winter. We specialise in everything from swapping out a few damaged corrugated sheets to full-scale farm building restoration. We work with high-quality box profile and corrugated metal cladding that can stand up to the worst the South West weather has to offer. If your purlins are looking a bit weary or you've got missing flashings and ridges, we can get them sorted quickly to ensure your building remains completely weatherproof.

Does your livestock building feel a bit damp or stuffy? Keeping animals healthy often comes down to the quality of the air and the environment inside the shed. That is why we often recommend fibre cement roofing for stables and cattle housing. Unlike standard metal, fibre cement is breathable and significantly reduces the risk of condensation dripping down onto your stock. For those using metal sheeting, we can install 'Drip-stop' anti-condensation backing to catch moisture before it becomes a problem. We also frequently install translucent roof lights, which are a brilliant, cost-effective way to let natural light into dark barns, making the space better for your animals and easier for you to work in during the shorter winter days.

Are you worried about the cost and disruption of stripping an entire roof, especially if there is asbestos involved? You're not alone. Many of the agricultural buildings we see in the Fairford area are still structurally sound but have leaky or ageing surfaces. In many cases, we can offer over-sheeting or over-cladding as a clever alternative. This involves fitting a new, modern layer of steel profile cladding directly over the existing roof. It’s a fantastic way to upgrade your insulation and weatherproofing without the mess and expense of a full tear-off. It keeps your farm operational while we work, meaning your daily routine isn't turned upside down while we're on-site.

It is easy to forget about the gutters until they’re overflowing like a waterfall during a summer storm. On a large barn or grain store, the volume of water coming off the roof is immense. If your guttering isn't up to the job, that water can quickly undermine foundations or flood your yard. We install and repair heavy-duty industrial guttering systems designed to handle the scale of agricultural buildings. From simple repairs to installing complete new systems with efficient downpipes, we make sure the water goes exactly where it's supposed to. We also offer drone roof surveys, which are perfect for checking the state of gutters and high ridges on those tall agricultural units where ladders just won't reach safely.
