Agricultural Roofing in Stroud, Gloucestershire

Have you noticed patches of rust appearing on your old corrugated sheets? Most farmers we talk to want something that they can install and then forget about for the next thirty years. That’s where our steel profile cladding comes in. We install high-quality box profile and corrugated metal roof sheets that are built to withstand the toughest conditions. These systems are fantastic for machinery sheds and storage facilities because they're incredibly durable and come with various coatings to prevent corrosion. If you're worried about dampness dripping onto expensive tractors, we can even provide sheets with anti-condensation backing—often called 'drip-stop'—to keep the interior bone dry even when the temperature drops outside.

If you’re housing cattle or horses, a standard metal roof might not be the best shout. Why? Because livestock produce a lot of heat and moisture, which leads to heavy condensation on metal surfaces. We often recommend fibre cement roofing for these types of buildings. It’s a breathable material that naturally helps regulate the environment inside the barn, reducing the risk of respiratory issues for your animals. It won't rust, it’s remarkably quiet during a heavy downpour, and it fits perfectly with the traditional look of the Stroud landscape. We’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference the right material makes to the welfare of your animals and the longevity of the structure itself.

Think you need to strip the whole roof to stop a leak? You might be surprised. If your existing structure is still sound but the sheets have seen better days, we often suggest over-sheeting. This involves fixing a new layer of modern cladding directly over the top of your old roof. It’s a brilliant, cost-effective way to get a brand-new weatherproof seal without the massive bill—or the hassle—of a full strip-and-replace. It also means less disruption for your daily farm operations. We'll check your purlins to make sure they can take the weight and then get to work. It’s a straightforward, no-nonsense approach that many of our clients in the South West swear by.

It’s easy to overlook the gutters until you see a waterfall pouring off the side of your barn during a storm. Standard domestic guttering just isn't up to the task when it comes to the huge surface areas of agricultural buildings. We install heavy-duty industrial guttering and downpipe systems designed to move massive volumes of water away from your foundations. Poor drainage is often the hidden culprit behind damp walls and sinking floors in older outbuildings. While we're up there, we can also fit or replace roof lights—those translucent sheets that let natural light flood into your workspace, saving you a fortune on electricity bills during the day.
