Our Systems

Find out more about our comprehensive range of commercial roofing and cladding services.

Proactive & reactive maintenance

We draw on over 100 years of combined experience to provide customers with responsive, flexible and reliable maintenance services to keep premises warm and watertight.

With a proven track record across a broad range of roofing systems, we offer pragmatic and cost-effective solutions to address wear, tear and other issues before they can become costly or damaging problems.

Fieldwire construction software is used to coordinate site projects. This enables rapid, real-time collaboration and performance tracking, ensuring work is delivered on time and on budget.

Liquid membranes and protective coatings

Our highly proficient teams utilise liquid membranes and coatings to help clients extend roof life, fill cracks or solve problem areas. We understand when these solutions should be applied and how they can keep premises secure, durable and watertight.

Approved supply chain partners include:

Composite roofing & cladding (Metal roof sheeting and cladding)

We are vastly experienced in all aspects of roofing and cladding, having worked in industries as varied as manufacturing, aviation, nuclear and petrochemicals.

The team’s expertise includes composite roofing and cladding, as well as metal roof sheeting and cladding design.

We also offer over-roof and over-clad systems on sites where the outer surface has failed and an over-roof solution can save time, cost, disruption or asbestos disturbance.

Approved supply chain partners include:

Slating & tiling – traditional roofing solutions

At CEC, our teams have extensive expertise in traditional roofing solutions – able to complete projects with skill, efficiency and sensitivity to the specific architectural requirements of a premises.

We are adept at working with slate, clay tiles and with all variations of slate and tiles to ensure that the character and value of a property is retained and enhanced during refurbishment projects.

 

We regularly complete traditional roofing projects for:

Schools

Our teams are leaders in sourcing, supplying and installing A1 specified non-combustible rainscreen cladding in line with manufacturer specifications and project fire strategies.

On premises such as high-rise residential buildings we are trusted to work alongside architects and other contractors to meet the highest standards of fire security.

We work closely with market leading cladding manufacturers and distributors, including:

For customers looking to create a sleek, premium aesthetic, our standing seam and secret fix roofing systems are growing in popularity.

We are able to collaborate with site teams to meet architectural requirements across a range of commercial premises, including schools, industrial, retail, hospitality and petrochemical plants.

Hard metal roofing and cladding

For construction projects in need of highly durable and corrosion-resistant solutions, our hard metal roofing and cladding service is a great option. Using zinc, copper or stainless steel, we create robust, weather-resistant roofs and facades in a range of shapes and finishes.

Our high-quality installations are carefully designed to preserve architectural integrity and aesthetics, whilst significantly extending the lifespan of a premises.

Our approved supply chain partners include:

Green and living roofs

We have developed a growing reputation for the creation of green and living roofs – an environmentally sustainable roofing system designed to incorporate vegetation that provides both aesthetic value, energy efficiency and helps to improve air quality.

From hospitality venues to office buildings, we utilise a variety of grasses, herbs and even small shrubs to improve insulation, reduce stormwater runoff and enhance biodiversity. These roofs also reduce heat absorption.

Inverted roof systems

Inverted roof systems, also known as “upside-down” roofs, are roofing structures with the insulation placed above the waterproof membrane rather than below it – often to protect the waterproof layering from extreme temperatures.

At Construction Envelope Contracts we typically fit inverted roofs to flat-roof buildings to deliver improved thermal insulation and resilience. Applications include single ply roofs, liquid membranes and bituminous systems.

 

Where required as part of refurbishment projects, our UKATA (United Kingdom Asbestos Training association) qualified professionals are able to manage the safe and controlled removal of non-licensed CAT B asbestos-containing materials.

We deliver removal and disposal projects that are low-risk and low-concentration areas – including asbestos cement sheets, roofing and panels.

Condition reporting

We work closely with businesses to understand the ongoing condition of premises, helping you to retain a clear picture of ongoing requirements, potential risks and areas for urgent attention.

We utilise Fieldwire construction software to coordinate site projects and produce conditions reports. This enables rapid, real-time collaboration and performance tracking through inspection and assessment stages through to work completion.

At CEC, we have the expertise to perform electronic testing in order to inspect, diagnose and troubleshoot instances of water ingress to metal roofs. Our service is fast and efficient, supported by our market-leading advice on how to remedy any issues identified.

With more than 20 years’ experience in delivering roofing and cladding projects on time and on budget, we are perfectly placed to help customers plan for future upgrades, repairs and renovation work.

Our expert estimators have over 100 years of collective experience and are familiar with tendering for multi-million-pound contracts. This means they are well placed to advise on solutions for your building project including support in creation of business cases, designs and product selection balancing your priorities.

By taking the time to understand a business’s evolving needs and financial position we help to set priorities, forecast costs of capital projects and optimise spend in order to meet both short-term and long-term goals.
