Roof insulation - Abergele

With the shortest day just passed the full brunt of the January and February winter weather is still ahead of us.  If we are lucky we will begin to see some more warm weather in April.

So now is exactly the time to consider whether you have sufficient thermal insulation in your roof.  Many houses still have only the minimum thickness of four inches as laid down in the regulations back in the 1980s.

Adding another four inches over the top will dramatically reduce heat losss, keep you warmer and further reduce your heatin bill - not just now but for every forthcoming winter.

Mineral fibre is the cheapest way of obtaining the maximum heat insulation.  Speak to us about what is involved and how little it will cost.

West Shore Llandudno - new roof by M E Contractors

In these pictures you can see the MEC team replacing an old and leaking roof on a terraced house.

First the old and damaged slates are removed; then the rotten battens and finally the old leaking sarking felt.

The roof is then inspected to check for any further damage.

New waterproof sarking and battens are fixed in position.

The team get work fixing the new slates

 

And adding a rooflight so that the roofspace can be used - if only for storage.

And then it's job done - with the minimum of fuss and mess.  The new roofing materials interlaced into the two adjoining properties and a mechanically fixed row of ridge tiles for enhanced weather resistance.

Another successful project - yet another happy client.
