Tenement Roofing Specialists Glasgow
Glasgow’s traditional tenements are some of the city’s most iconic buildings. Many of these sandstone properties are over 100 years old and require specialist knowledge when it comes to roof repairs and maintenance.
Traditional Slate Roofing Repairs
Most Glasgow tenements are covered with traditional Scottish slate roofs. Over time, slates can slip, crack or become loose due to weather exposure and general ageing of the roof structure.
We carry out a wide range of slate roofing repairs including:
-
Replacement of slipped or damaged slates
-
Repair of roof valleys and lead flashings
-
Slate roof maintenance and inspections
-
Storm damage roof repairs
-
Traditional slate roof restoration
Our aim is always to preserve the original roof wherever possible while ensuring the building remains fully weatherproof.
Chimney and Leadwork Repairs
Chimneys are one of the most common sources of leaks in older tenement roofs. Over time mortar can deteriorate and lead flashings can fail, allowing water to enter the roof structure.
We regularly carry out:
-
Chimney repointing and rebuilding
-
Lead flashing replacement
-
Chimney head repairs
-
Removal of unsafe chimney pots
-
Weatherproofing around chimney stacks
Proper chimney maintenance is essential for protecting the roof and preventing water ingress into the building.
Tenement Roof Inspections
Many roof problems go unnoticed until water damage appears inside the property. Regular roof inspections allow issues to be identified early before they develop into larger structural problems.
We provide roof inspections for:
-
Property owners
-
Property factors
-
Letting agents
-
Surveyors
-
Landlords and property investors
Following inspection we can provide a clear report outlining any issues identified and recommendations for repair works where required.
Maintenance of Traditional Buildings
In addition to roofing works, we also assist with general maintenance of traditional tenement buildings including:
-
Gutter and downpipe repairs
-
Stone masonry repairs
-
Roofline maintenance
-
Minor structural roof repairs
-
General exterior building maintenance
Maintaining these elements is essential for protecting the long-term condition of traditional buildings.
