What do we cover in Powys?
- Pitched roof re-covering with breathable membrane and new battens
- Chimney repairs, flashings, leadwork and valleys
- Gutters, downpipes and gullies cleared, repaired or renewed
- Loft ventilation and insulation top-ups during roof works

How do we deliver it?
Loft ventilation and insulation are checked during roof work, because a new covering over a poorly ventilated loft can cause condensation problems of its own.
