If you are a home or business owner in the Scarborough area, keep roofing maintenance in mind. Buildings are always at risk of weather damage, pests and leaks. Based in Bridlington, East Coast Roofing & Sons is a family-run roofing company that installs new roofs, undertakes roof repairs and offers a wider range of roofing services to keep properties safe and secure.
Whether your gutters, fascias and soffits need repairing, or if you are looking to replace a leak-prone felt roof with one of our GRP fibreglass roofs, we are here to help.
Here, we discuss how periodic inspections, maintenance and small-scale roof repairs save you money on replacements.
READ MORE >>>After decades of wear or periods of extreme weather, you might find damaged slates and tiles, or they may be missing completely. At this point, it could be time to think about a partial replacement or to have one of our new roofs installed. Clients in Scarborough count on us for continuity when it comes to the colour and appearance of a pitched roof.
Mismatched slates and tiles are extremely noticeable.
We source replacements to match your existing roof. A colour clash can overshadow the effort that goes into building and repair work. Matching is a key part of our roofing services.
If you live in a period property or a conservation area, it is even more important to make sure tiles look consistent. Building control officials expect new tiles to match the original roofing. We work closely with clients to help them meet local council specifications.
East Coast Roofing & Sons installs GRP fibreglass roofs to replace older felt systems. GRP fibreglass is one of the most durable flat roof systems on the market, so damage and leaks are rare. However, if new roofs have been improperly applied or damaged by another company, our team is available to undertake flat roof repairs and replacements in Scarborough.
If your property already has a fibreglass roof that has suffered damage, we can repair it and, if required, replace the gutters, fascias and soffits at the same time.
We start the repair process by sanding the damaged area and wiping it with acetone to ensure a clean working surface. We then cut 2-4 pieces of fibreglass matting to size, applying them with a resin to harden the strands. Once dried, we sand the repaired section down and seal the surface with a robust topcoat that matches the colour of your roof.
Perfect for preventing leaks, GRP fibreglass has become key to our roofing services, and it is a material we strongly recommend for domestic and commercial builds with flat roofs in Scarborough.
Infestations cause stress and inconvenience. Pest control can leave you significantly out of pocket. The best way to avoid this situation is to regularly maintain your roof or to book in for roof repairs at the first sign of a problem. This warm, quiet part of the home is particularly attractive to wildlife. Keeping your roof watertight and secure protects your building from the elements and makes it harder for pests to find a way in.
Unwelcome guests have certain legal rights once settled. It is illegal to dispose of (or remove) active bird nests other than those of feral pigeons, or to shut off entry holes once they have moved in! Grey squirrels are quick to breed but require specialist removal. The government forbids this non-native species from being released back into the wild once caught.
A key barrier against small animals are fascias and soffits, so be sure to check for roofline cracks and splits. If you are based in Scarborough, please contact East Coast Roofing & Sons and take proactive steps to pest-proof your roof. We can also replace roofline components when fitting new roofs.
Fibreglass roofs, because of their seamless finish, make it more difficult for pests to infest your loft space.
