Commercial Roofing in Melksham, Wiltshire

Imagine arriving at your warehouse on a Monday morning only to find damp patches appearing over your newest stock or office equipment. It's a scenario most facilities managers dread. Often, the culprit is an ageing roof that’s been neglected because 'it looked alright from the ground.' We understand that your roof isn't just a structure; it's a critical investment that protects your livelihood. Most business owners we chat with in Melksham are looking for two things: reliability and minimal disruption. You don't want your operations grinding to a halt because of a roofing crew. That’s why we plan our work around your schedule, ensuring we stay out of the way while providing a weather-tight solution that lasts for years.

Is your old asbestos cement or metal roof starting to show its age? You might think a full replacement is the only answer, but there’s a much more cost-effective way to handle it. We specialise in over-sheeting, which involves installing a new, modern metal skin directly over your existing roof. This avoids the massive cost and health-and-safety nightmare of stripping and disposing of old materials. For newer builds or extensions, we also install high-performance composite panels. These factory-insulated sheets are fantastic for keeping your energy bills down by trapping heat where it belongs. If you're looking for the ultimate leak protection, we can talk you through standing seam systems, which use concealed fixings to eliminate the holes where water usually finds its way in.

Flat roofs on commercial units have a bit of a reputation for leaking, but they don't have to be a problem. The key is using the right materials and ensuring the drainage is spot on. We often use liquid-applied membranes for complex roofs with lots of plant machinery or vents. These create a completely seamless, waterproof 'skin' that gets into every nook and cranny. Are you dealing with pools of water sitting on your roof for days? We can install cut-to-fall insulation, which creates a slight taper to guide that rainwater straight into the gutters. From EPDM rubber to traditional felt and GRP fibreglass, we'll help you pick the system that fits your budget and the specific needs of your building.

It’s easy to forget about the gutters until a heavy Wiltshire downpour turns your warehouse into a swimming pool. Industrial box gutters are notorious for rusting through at the joints. Instead of the massive job of ripping them out, we use Ply-gene gutter lining. It’s a bespoke, flexible liner that we fit inside your existing guttering, making it 100% watertight again without the need for structural changes. We also take care of all your flashings and copings—those essential metal bits that finish off the edges and parapet walls. It’s often these small details that prevent the most expensive damp issues later on. We’re not just local to Melksham either; we cover a 25-mile radius including Chippenham, Trowbridge, and Royal Wootton Bassett.
