Explore our recent roofing transformations across Essex.
A massive, complete roof overhaul. We stripped the entire structure down to the rafters, clearing out decades of old materials and debris. We installed a brand new breathable membrane, fresh treated battens, and comprehensive loft insulation to bring the property up to modern thermal standards. The project was finished with premium interlocking tiles, providing a flawless, watertight shield that will protect the home for decades.

A complete transformation of a large outdoor balcony space. The original surface was a cracked, failing asphalt that looked unsightly and posed a risk of water ingress to the property below. We entirely overhauled the area, installing a high-performance waterproofing membrane followed by a premium interlocking tile system. The meticulous edge-to-edge finish not only guarantees structural protection but also created a stunning, usable outdoor living space.

A complete strip and re-lay of a terraced house roof in Essex. The existing roof was suffering from age-related deterioration and moss build-up, compromising its water tightness. We entirely stripped the old materials, installed breathable modern membranes and treated battens, and finished with high-quality interlocking concrete tiles. Crucially, we installed brand new lead valleys and completed fresh lead flashing work around the chimney to guarantee a long-lasting, watertight finish.

This project required more than just surface-level waterproofing. Upon inspection, we discovered severe water ingress had caused the underlying structural joists to rot completely. We performed a full strip-out of the deteriorated timber, installed fresh, structurally sound joists, and laid a completely new OSB decking system while carefully retaining the existing skylights. The roof was then fully waterproofed, transforming a failing structure into a robust, secure roof.

Persistent leaks are frequently caused by failed leadwork and moss-clogged valleys. This property featured a beautiful but heavily moss-covered clay tile roof where the valley mortar had cracked and the lead had deteriorated. We stripped back the affected areas, cleared the damaging moss, and installed a pristine new lead valley. We paid special attention to the intricate dressing at the hip and eaves junctions, seamlessly blending the new leadwork with the existing heritage clay tiles for a perfect, watertight seal.

A modern, high-performance flat roof installation on a residential garage outbuilding. Traditional felt roofs often fail at the seams over time, so we opted for a seamless, liquid-applied waterproofing system from LRS. As licensed installers, we carefully prepared the deck and applied the PMMA liquid system, ensuring it wrapped perfectly over the parapet edges. The result is a clean, bright white, joint-free finish that offers superior longevity and weather resistance compared to standard felt.
