Overview

Practical insulation upgrades support

Insulation upgrades improve the roof build-up during refurbishment, overlay or replacement work, helping the building perform better long term.

Every roof is different, so the right approach depends on the existing condition, roof build-up, drainage, access, surrounding details and the intended use of the building.

Service support

What this includes

  • Roof insulation upgrades
  • Thermal improvement works
  • Support for refurbishment schemes
  • Coordination with drainage, upstands and waterproofing

Approach

How the work is handled

  1. Review the existing roof, drawings or site requirement
  2. Confirm the right system, access and sequencing
  3. Coordinate details around outlets, edges, openings and interfaces
  4. Complete the work with practical communication throughout

Important details

What to consider

  • Roof condition, drainage and access should be reviewed early
  • The chosen system should suit the building use and surrounding details
  • Future maintenance should be considered as part of the specification

Advice

Before work starts

Photos, drawings, access details and information about current issues can help identify the most suitable option before a visit or quotation is arranged.

AFR can review the requirement and advise on a practical route for repair, refurbishment, replacement or new installation.
