We Guarantee Your Roof Won't Leak for 5 Years. If It Does, We Fix It Free.
80% of UK commercial flat roofs have no valid warranty. The original installer has folded, the maintenance was never done, and the guarantee expired years ago. One storm, one blocked outlet, one failed detail — and the next repair bill is yours.
Roof Shield™ ends that cycle. Planned maintenance, bi-annual inspections, and a written 5-year no-leak guarantee — the only programme of its kind in the UK.
70% of UK Commercial Flat Roofs Are Unprotected
Flat roofs don't fail with drama — they fail in silence. Tiny breaches become major repairs. Missed inspections void your warranty. And the company who installed your roof? Often long gone.
Every major manufacturer — Bauder, Sika, Soprema — requires documented, regular maintenance as a condition of their warranty. Miss one inspection and that shiny 20-year warranty could evaporate.
