Building Services Kilkenny, Roof and Build Together
Competitive Roofing, a family-run roofing company based in County Carlow, covers general building work in Kilkenny and across Leinster. Some roofing companies gutter repairs in Waterford also take on extensions, renovations and structural work, which helps because the junction between a new roof and an old wall is where leaks begin.
Can a roofing company handle building work as well?
Some can, and it helps where a job crosses from one trade into another. Alongside roofing, Competitive Roofing takes on extensions, renovations and structural work, delivered with close project management.
An extension ends with a roof, so the two trades meet on almost every one. If two contractors share the junction, neither may take responsibility for it. A single contractor closes that gap.
Do I need permission to build a garden wall?
In Ireland many boundary walls are exempt from planning permission within set height limits, but the limits are lower beside a public road and conditions apply. Check with the planning section of your county council before you build.
Where does a roof leak really begin?
Rarely at the spot where the water shows. Once past the tiles, water follows the slope of whatever it lands on and only drips further down. Cracked flashing, a broken tile or a seal that has let go are the usual culprits.
Competitive Roofing fixes the source of a leak rather than the symptom, so that the fix holds when the weather turns again. A patch over the wrong spot only moves the problem.
What is the cheapest way to build a garden wall?
Concrete block that is rendered afterwards is generally cheaper than facing brick or natural stone, though the look is different. Whatever the material, do not cut corners on the footing.
Is water sitting on a flat roof a problem?
Ponding, blistering and splits are the three to watch for. Extensions, dormers and garages are where they usually appear. Flat roof repair at Competitive Roofing covers cracks, pooling, damaged membranes and leaks.
Yes, if it is still there a day or two after the rain has stopped. It means the fall is not taking water to the outlet, and standing water finds any weakness in the membrane. Targeted repairs early stop it turning into a structural problem.
