Services
Roofing
We manufacture custom roofing components in aluminium, galvanised steel, and specialist coatings. Our capabilities include flashings, ridge systems, and complex curved elements. Using CNC technology, we produce precision parts up to 4 metres long with rapid turnaround times for both new builds and refurbishment projects.
Cladding
Our cladding solutions feature soffits, architectural panels, and rainscreen systems in matching materials to roofing products. We supply complementary components like window pods and sub-frame elements, supporting both modern construction and heritage restoration projects across commercial and residential sectors.
Specialist Fabrications
We create bespoke architectural elements including aerofoils, elliptical sections, and perforated panels. Using ACM, solid aluminium, or extruded panels, we deliver unique design features with finishes like powder coating and anodising to meet exacting aesthetic and functional requirements.
Rain Water Systems
We supply complete rainwater management solutions including gutters, downpipes, and anti-vandal systems. Our extruded aluminium components feature collars, brackets, and custom configurations to integrate seamlessly with building facades while ensuring optimal water management performance.
Flashings
Our flashing systems include fascias, ridge details, and custom corner solutions. We produce both standard and specialist configurations using multiple materials, with options for secret fix installations and curved profiles to prevent water ingress in critical junctions.
