Industrial Unit Roofing — Preston (PR1/PR2/PR5)
Over-sheeting, non-fragile rooflights, weekend programmes so production keeps running.
Facilities managers, owner-operators and landlords of light-industrial estates — where a leaking roof is a production-uptime issue, not a comfort one.
Why Preston industrial units call us
Rooflights are yellowed and leaking, box gutters are overflowing into the unit, or a tenant lease renewal is triggering a condition schedule.
How we work in the industrial unit sector
CDM 2015 apply on most jobs at this scale — we act as principal contractor for enabling works up to £250k and can slot under your PC where you already have one.
Quoted against a schedule of works, priced by element (sheeting, gutters, rooflights, insulation, walkways), and invoiced against agreed milestones.
Every Preston industrial unit job includes
- Non-fragile rooflight replacement to ACR MCRMA Class B
- Box-gutter refurbishment with cold-applied liners
- Composite sheet like-for-like replacement
- Man-safe walkway and edge-protection install
- Thermal upgrade specs for tenant Cat A elements
- Out-of-hours or weekend working to protect production
Who signs off — and how we make that easy
Facilities manager or MD signs off, sometimes with a landlord co-approving a Cat A element. On multi-let estates the managing agent signs.
Materials bias for industrial units: Kingspan / Tata composite panel like-for-like, GRP rooflights to Class 3 non-fragility, over-roofing systems where the existing sheeting is sound enough to stay in place.
Preston industrial unit questions we answer weekly
Can you work weekends to protect production?
Yes — most of our unit-roof programmes run weekend or shutdown-week to avoid touching the operating shift.
Do you replace GRP rooflights to current non-fragility standards?
Standard spec is ACR MCRMA Class B non-fragile assemblies. Anything lower fails the next insurance survey.
Can you act as principal contractor under CDM 2015?
For enabling works up to about £250k, yes. For larger schemes we slot under your appointed PC and provide RAMS accordingly.
