Polyroof Accounts
Estimates of the size of the UK flat roof market vary between £75 million and over £85 million per year. Although the market has traditionally been dominated by bitumin systems and felt coverings, cold liquid-applied membranes are increasingly being specified and the market share is growing year on year. Hot works are attracting hefty insurance premiums and are prohibited from many sites, so more and more roofing contractors are now switching to cold applied systems.
Why Polyroof?
Polyroof is unique in being a true one-stop-shop systems solutions provider in the flat roofing market. Unlike our competitors, we offer a range of cold liquid applied solutions to match the technical performance needs and budgets of each project. We have developed a range of products for the refurbishment and rejuvenation of flat roofs, where the membrane system is laid onto an exisiting sound substrate with minimal surface preparation. We also offer re-roofing systems where the glassfibre reinforced polymer membrane is laid onto a new plywood deck.
Polyroof Products were established in 1984 so we have a long track record of succesful applications and a reputation for quality and professionalism. Over the years our contractors have laid several million square metres in domestic and commercial applications throughout the country. Polyroof systems are now specified by most of the country’s local authorities as well as by housing associations, house builders & developers, airport authorities and many large manufacturing companies. We’ve also brought peace of mind to thousands of homeowners by providing a permanent cure to their leaking flat roofs. Our seamless roofing membranes are thoroughly tested and have all the relevant approvals such as British Board of Agrement (BBA) and the British Fire Safety Standard BS 476.
Remember this is NOT a franchise. Once you’ve been accepted as a Polyroof approved contractor there are no royalties or commissions to pay. All we ask is that you uphold the professional standards on which the Polyroof brand has been built.
