Agricultural Roofing in Hungerford, West Berkshire

Choosing the right material for a farm building isn't just about what looks good; it’s about what works for your specific setup. For livestock housing, we often recommend fibre cement roofing because it's breathable and helps cut down on condensation—essential for keeping animals healthy and bedding dry. If you're looking for something rugged for a machinery shed or grain store, steel box profile or corrugated sheeting is usually the way to go. We'll chat through the pros and cons of each, including adding 'Drip-stop' anti-condensation backing to metal sheets so you don't have moisture dripping onto expensive equipment. Not sure what you need? We can drop by for a free site survey and give you some honest advice.

Most farmers we speak to tell us they’ve been meaning to fix that one leaky corner for months, but then a proper West Berkshire storm hits and suddenly it's an emergency. You don't always need a whole new roof; sometimes a bit of targeted maintenance is all it takes to add years to the life of a building. We handle everything from replacing a few slipped sheets and fixing perished flashings to clearing out industrial-sized guttering systems that have become blocked with silt and moss. If the wind has caught a section of your roof and ripped it up, just give us a bell on 0117 428 9043. We'll get out to you quickly to secure the site and prevent further damage to your stock or animals.

Is your existing roof looking a bit tired but the structure underneath is still solid? You might not need to pay for a full strip-off and disposal, which can be a real headache—especially if there's old asbestos involved. We specialise in over-sheeting, where we fix new, modern steel profiles directly over your old roof. It's a brilliant, cost-effective way to get a brand-new weatherproof seal and improved insulation without the massive bill or the mess of a total replacement. It also means minimal disruption to your daily routine, so your cows can stay in the barn or your horses can stay in their stables while we work.

Stables require a bit of a different touch compared to a standard industrial unit. Proper ventilation is everything, and you want materials that won't make the place feel like an oven in the summer or a freezer in the winter. We've worked on plenty of yards around Hungerford and the Lambourn valley, installing everything from traditional timber-framed roofing to modern fibre cement systems with integrated roof lights to let in natural sunshine. We also fit dry ridge systems and bespoke flashings to make sure everything is watertight and bird-proof. We're used to working around animals, so we keep the site tidy and make sure we don't leave any stray nails or offcuts lying around where they could cause trouble.
