Everything you need to know about our roof waterproofing, polyurea coatings, asbestos repair, and metal roof services. Can't find your answer? Get in touch.
We waterproof all types of flat and low-pitch roofs including felt, asphalt, concrete, fibreglass, asbestos cement, and metal roofs. Our liquid membrane systems bond directly to existing surfaces, eliminating the need for costly strip-out. Whether it's a small domestic extension, a commercial warehouse, or an industrial unit, our polyurea and LAVA20 systems provide seamless, long-lasting protection.
Our waterproofing systems come with manufacturer-backed warranties ranging from 10 to 25 years, depending on the system and specification. Polyurea coatings are UV-stable and highly durable, designed to withstand Ireland's harsh weather conditions for decades. With proper application and detailing, many of our installations continue to perform well beyond the warranty period.
In most cases, yes. Waterproofing over an existing roof surface is faster, less disruptive, and significantly more cost-effective than a full roof replacement. Our liquid membranes create a seamless barrier that eliminates joints and common failure points. It's also more sustainable — there's no waste from stripping the old roof. We always carry out a thorough inspection first to confirm your roof is a suitable candidate.
Minimal disruption is a key advantage of our systems. Unlike traditional roofing methods, there's no heavy machinery, no hot works (naked flames), and no prolonged scaffolding. Most domestic jobs are completed within one to two days. For commercial properties, we can work around your operating hours to minimise impact on your business.
Yes. Our systems are specifically designed to seal and stop active leaks. During the assessment, we identify the source of water ingress and address it directly. The liquid membrane bonds to the surface and cures to form a fully waterproof, seamless coating — there are no joints or seams where water can penetrate. We've successfully resolved leaks that other contractors couldn't fix.
Polyurea is an advanced liquid coating that is spray-applied directly onto your roof surface. Once cured, it forms a tough, seamless, and fully waterproof membrane. Unlike traditional felt or bitumen, polyurea is highly flexible, UV-stable, and resistant to ponding water. It bonds to almost any substrate and has a proven track record in commercial and industrial applications worldwide.
Spray foam (SPF) is applied as a liquid that expands on contact to form a rigid, closed-cell insulation layer. Once cured, it's coated with a protective polyurea or elastomeric topcoat for UV protection and waterproofing. The result is a lightweight, insulated, and fully sealed roof system. It's particularly effective on irregular roof shapes and complex detailing.
Ireland's climate demands a roofing system that can handle constant rain, temperature fluctuations, and high winds. Polyurea is one of very few coatings that remains fully flexible in cold temperatures and won't crack or peel. It cures rapidly — even in damp conditions — and creates a seamless membrane with no joints where wind-driven rain can penetrate.
Spray foam roofing offers excellent value over its lifetime. The upfront cost is comparable to or less than a full roof replacement, but the system lasts 25 years or more with minimal maintenance. The built-in insulation can reduce heating costs by up to 50%, which means the roof often pays for itself within a few years through energy savings alone.
Absolutely. Spray foam provides one of the highest R-values (thermal resistance) per inch of any insulation material. When applied to your roof, it creates a continuous thermal barrier with no gaps, cold bridges, or thermal weak points. Many of our clients report a noticeable improvement in comfort and a significant reduction in heating bills after installation.
Yes. Our encapsulation and waterproofing systems are designed to seal and protect asbestos cement roofs without the need for removal. We clean the surface, treat any damaged areas, and apply a seamless liquid membrane that stops leaks and extends the roof's service life. This approach is faster, safer, and far more cost-effective than full replacement.
We use low-pressure washing techniques specifically designed for asbestos cement surfaces. High-pressure washing is never used as it can damage the material and release fibres. Our cleaning process removes moss, lichen, and surface contaminants whilst keeping the asbestos cement intact. All water used during the cleaning process is captured and filtered to 4 microns before being released back into the system, ensuring no contamination enters the environment. The surface is then primed and prepared for the coating system.
Encapsulation involves applying a specialist liquid coating over the entire asbestos cement roof surface. This seals and encapsulates the asbestos fibres within the material, preventing any release into the environment. The coating also waterproofs the roof, protects against further weathering, and significantly extends its usable life — typically by 20 years or more.
In many cases, yes. Encapsulation is recognised by the Health and Safety Authority (HSA) as a safe management option for asbestos cement roofing in good structural condition. Removal disturbs the material and carries inherent risks, including fibre release and significant disposal costs. Encapsulation avoids these risks entirely, leaving the asbestos undisturbed and safely sealed.
A properly encapsulated asbestos roof can last an additional 20 to 25 years. Our systems use BBA-certified coatings that are UV-stable, flexible, and designed to withstand long-term exposure to Irish weather. We provide manufacturer-backed warranties and will return to address any issues during the warranty period at no extra cost.
Metal roofs are durable, but over time they develop issues such as corrosion, failed sealants at overlaps, and condensation. Cut edge corrosion — where the protective coating wears away at cut edges — is the most common problem. Our liquid membrane systems seal the entire surface, stop corrosion from spreading, and provide a new waterproof barrier that extends the roof's life by decades.
Cut edge corrosion occurs where metal roofing sheets were cut during installation, exposing unprotected steel to moisture. Over time, rust develops along these edges and spreads under the coating. We treat affected areas with a corrosion inhibitor, then apply a flexible liquid membrane that seals the edges and prevents further deterioration. It's a proven, long-lasting repair.
Box gutters are prone to leaking because they collect large volumes of water and are often poorly maintained. Common causes include blocked outlets, failed joints, cracked sealant, and corrosion. Debris accumulation accelerates deterioration. Our waterproofing systems line the entire gutter channel with a seamless membrane, eliminating joints and creating a watertight channel that handles even heavy rainfall.
Yes, in most cases. Our liquid waterproofing systems can fully restore box gutters without the need for replacement. We clean and prepare the gutter, treat any corrosion, and apply a seamless membrane that bonds to the existing metalwork. This creates a new waterproof lining that's jointless and highly durable — at a fraction of the cost and disruption of replacement.
Our systems work on all common metal gutter types including galvanised steel, aluminium, cast iron, and copper. The liquid membrane bonds to each surface type with appropriate preparation. Whether it's a standard box gutter, a valley gutter between roof panels, or a parapet gutter, we can seal and waterproof it effectively.
