Commercial and industrial roofing across Beverley and Hull — flat roofs, planned maintenance contracts, condition surveys, dilapidations both sides, and asbestos-aware industrial work, with RAMS, CDM and insurance provided before we start.
Tell us the job in 30 seconds. No pushy sales, no call-out fee.
We provide commercial and industrial roofing across Beverley and Hull — flat roofs, planned maintenance, condition surveys and dilapidations — with RAMS, CDM and insurance documentation supplied before work starts and programmes built around your trading hours.
Commercial roofs fail differently from domestic ones: the cost of a leak is business interruption, damaged stock and a facilities budget blown mid-year. The right question is usually not "repair or replace" but "react or plan" — whether your roof should be on a maintenance schedule that catches faults early rather than a series of emergency call-outs.
When you don’t need a full re-roof: a profiled metal roof with localised cut-edge corrosion or a felt roof with a single failed detail rarely needs stripping. We’ll cost the targeted fix or the over-clad option honestly before anyone proposes a capital replacement.
A site-specific RAMS setting out the hazards, controls and safe system of work — supplied to your facilities or H&S contact before anyone goes on the roof.
Where the work makes us a contractor under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, we provide the information the principal designer and client duty holder need, and work to the construction phase plan.
Public liability cover, method-appropriate accreditation and references, provided up front so procurement can sign us off without chasing.
Noisy or access-blocking work scheduled for evenings, weekends or shutdowns by agreement, with clear communication so trading and staff are disturbed as little as possible.
The commercial roofing around Hull is dominated by profiled metal and single-ply flat roofs on the industrial estates — Sutton Fields to the north, Priory Park to the west, and the older riverside industry along Hedon Road and Wincolmlee. Much of the older stock carries asbestos cement sheeting, which shapes how any work has to begin.
Beverley and Hull town centres add a different mix: flat-roofed extensions behind period frontages, parapet gutters, and communal roofs over ground-floor retail with flats above — where trading hours and public access drive the programme as much as the roofing.
Knowing which estates carry asbestos stock, which units have parapet-gutter problems, and where out-of-hours access is essential means the survey is realistic and the quote holds — no mid-job surprises that stall a facilities budget.
At lease end the roof is often the biggest single dilapidations item, and the two sides see it very differently. We act for either — with the same documented, defensible approach.
| Acting for | What we do |
|---|---|
| Outgoing tenant | Assess the roof against the lease repairing covenant; cost only genuinely required works; give you a defensible figure before you negotiate |
| Landlord | Survey the returned roof; specify what the lease actually requires reinstating; separate fair wear from disrepair |
| Either party | A dated, photographic condition report that stands up in a schedule of dilapidations negotiation |
An independent survey usually pays for itself in a fairer settlement.
Older industrial units around Hull frequently have asbestos cement sheeting. We work survey-first: nothing is drilled, cut or broken until the asbestos position is established. Where asbestos is confirmed, licensed removal is referred to a specialist contractor; non-licensed maintenance is carried out to HSE guidance with the correct controls and no dry cutting.
Cut-edge corrosion on profiled metal roofs is treated before it undermines the sheet, extending roof life for a fraction of replacement cost. Where a roof is genuinely spent we advise on the over-clad versus strip-and-replace decision honestly — over-cladding is often the cost-effective route, but not when the existing sheet or purlins are too far gone to build on.
| Service | Typical basis | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Roof condition survey | £350–£900 | With photos and 5/10yr forecast |
| Planned maintenance contract | From £POA/yr | Survey, clearance, minor repair, report |
| Single-ply / felt flat roof | £90–£160/m² | Warm deck, corrected falls |
| Cut-edge corrosion treatment | £25–£45/lm | By extent and access |
| Over-cladding | £55–£110/m² | Where structure allows |
We quote against your specification, accept purchase orders, and invoice on standard 30-day terms with full VAT documentation. Larger projects run on staged payments tied to programme milestones — nothing before materials are on site.
Planned maintenance turns unpredictable roof failures into a budgeted, forecastable line.
It is worth being blunt about the economics: for most commercial occupiers the direct cost of the roof repair is the smaller number. The larger cost is business interruption — a warehouse aisle closed off, stock water-damaged, a retail unit shut for a wet weekend, staff working around buckets. A planned survey that catches a lifting flat-roof lap or a blocked parapet outlet in autumn, before the winter it would have failed in, routinely saves several times its own cost in avoided disruption. That is the case for a maintenance schedule over a react-and-repair cycle, and we make it in plain figures against your actual roof rather than as a sales pitch.
Commercial installations carry a written 10-year workmanship guarantee, with single-ply and membrane manufacturer system warranties (commonly 20 years-plus) on top. For a facilities manager the documented warranty position and photographic asset record are as valuable as the roof itself.
Before work starts on asbestos-containing materials, a suitable and sufficient assessment must establish the type and condition; non-licensed work must still follow the correct controls and avoid methods that release fibres.

On occupied commercial premises we sheet and cordon work areas, keep fire exits and access clear, and time noisy work for agreed low-impact windows. You do not need to stay home for external work - we just need power and access agreed in advance.
Single-ply and most flat-roof systems can be installed in a range of conditions; we agree contingency dates for weather-sensitive stages up front. Hull Valley humidity and North Sea easterlies drive persistent moss growth and hard freeze-thaw cycling on exposed verges.
"RAMS and insurance in our hands before they set foot on site, and they worked our Sunday shutdown so the warehouse never stopped. Faultless."
"Sorted the cut-edge corrosion on our unit rather than pushing a full re-roof — saved us a five-figure sum and bought years."
"Their dilapidations survey gave us a defensible figure that settled the lease negotiation quickly and fairly."
Yes. Before work begins on a commercial site we provide a risk assessment and method statement (RAMS), evidence of public liability insurance, and — where the project makes us a contractor under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations — the CDM information your principal designer or duty holder needs.
Yes. For occupied units, retail and offices we routinely programme noisy or access-blocking work for evenings, weekends or shutdown periods, agreed in advance, so trading and staff are affected as little as possible.
A scheduled roof condition survey (typically annual), gutter and outlet clearance, minor repair before it becomes major, and a written report with a photographic record and a 5–10 year cost forecast for asset planning. It converts unpredictable roof failures into a budgeted line.
Yes, for both sides. For tenants we assess the roof against the lease’s repairing obligations and cost the works before you negotiate a settlement; for landlords we survey the returned roof and specify what is genuinely required. An independent, documented view protects whoever we act for.
Asbestos cement sheeting is common on older industrial units and must be handled correctly. We work survey-first: no drilling or cutting until the asbestos position is established, and licensed removal is referred to a specialist contractor. Non-licensed maintenance is carried out to HSE guidance with the right controls.
Yes. On profiled metal roofs we treat cut-edge corrosion before it spreads, and advise honestly on the over-clad versus strip-and-replace decision — over-cladding is often the cost-effective route, but not when the existing sheet or structure is too far gone.
We quote against your specification, accept purchase orders, and invoice with standard 30-day terms and full VAT documentation. For larger projects we work to staged payments tied to programme milestones.
