What is a temporary roof?
A temporary roof is a scaffold based cover that protects a building while work is carried out. It creates a strong, weather resistant shell over your roof or structure.
Sheets, frames and supports work together to keep out rain, wind and falling debris. This allows repairs, refurbishments and extensions to continue in comfort, helping teams stay safe, dry and productive.
Temporary roofing can be adapted to different shapes and sizes, making it ideal for homes, shops, schools and larger commercial sites.
Temporary Roofing Services
Our temporary roofing services provide full planning, supply and installation for projects of all sizes. We design scaffold structures and roof covers that suit your site, budget and schedule.
From small domestic repairs to major commercial works, we keep your building protected so work can carry on safely in most weather conditions.
Design and planning
Our design and planning service starts with a detailed look at your building and project needs.
We create safe, practical layouts that support your work and protect what is below. Loadings, spans and access are all considered to keep the roof stable and secure.
Weather and water protection
Weather and water protection are at the heart of every temporary roof we build. We use proven systems and fitting methods to keep rainwater away from your work area.
Careful overlaps, secure fixings and regular checks help prevent leaks, drips and wind damage on site.
Materials and coverings
We select materials and coverings that match your project, from lightweight shrink wrap to stronger sheeted systems.
Each option is chosen for weather resistance, durability and site safety. We explain the benefits of each covering, so you understand how it will protect your building during the works.
Health and safety standards
Health and safety standards are built into every stage of our temporary roofing work. Our trained scaffolders follow current regulations, site rules and best practice at all times.
Risk assessments, method statements and regular inspections help keep your property, staff and the public safe.
Installation and removal
Our skilled team manages the full installation and removal of your temporary roof. We erect the structure efficiently, secure all coverings and perform final checks before handover.
When the project is complete, we dismantle and clear everything, leaving your site tidy and ready for the next phase.
Site survey and access
A careful site survey and access plan make sure your temporary roof can be installed safely and efficiently. We look at ground conditions, nearby buildings and public areas before work begins.
Access routes and scaffolds are planned to reduce disruption and keep everyone on site safe.
