Lee Roofing Services Completes Extension Roof Refill and Re-Batten in St Albans
At Lee Roofing Services, we take pride in delivering top-quality roofing solutions to homeowners and businesses across St Albans and the surrounding areas. Recently, we completed an extensive project involving an extension roof refill, re-battening, new lead installation, and new flashings around the windows for a valued client in St Albans. We are excited to share the details of this project and highlight the expertise and dedication our team brings to every job.
Project Overview
The client approached us with concerns about their extension roof, which was showing signs of wear and potential leakage. After a thorough inspection, we recommended a comprehensive roofing solution to address the issues and enhance the longevity and performance of their roof.
Scope of Work:
- Extension Roof Refill
- Re-Battening
- New Lead Installation
- New Flashings Around the Windows
Extension Roof Refill
Over time, roofs can experience settling and material degradation, leading to gaps and weaknesses. Our team performed a complete roof refill to ensure the roof’s structural integrity. This process involved:
- Removing old roofing materials
- Inspecting the underlying structure for damage
- Adding new insulation materials for improved energy efficiency
- Preparing the roof for re-battening and re-tiling
Re-Battening
The roof battens play a crucial role in supporting the roof tiles and facilitating proper water drainage. We replaced the old, worn battens with high-quality treated timber battens to:
- Enhance the roof’s durability
- Provide a solid foundation for new tiles
- Comply with current building regulations and standards
New Lead Installation
Lead work is essential for waterproofing and longevity, especially around joints and roof features. Our skilled craftsmen installed new lead flashings to:
- Prevent water ingress at critical points
- Ensure a watertight seal around chimneys, valleys, and abutments
- Add a traditional and aesthetically pleasing finish to the roof
New Flashings Around the Windows
Properly installed window flashings are vital to prevent leaks and drafts. We meticulously installed new flashings around all the windows to:
- Protect against water penetration
- Improve thermal efficiency by eliminating drafts
- Enhance the visual appeal of the extension
Project Outcome
The project was completed on schedule and within the agreed budget. The client was delighted with the transformation, noting:
- Improved Roof Performance: The roof is now secure, weatherproof, and insulated.
- Enhanced Aesthetics: The new lead and flashings provide a clean, professional look.
- Peace of Mind: Confidence in the roof’s ability to withstand the elements for years to come.
