Self-build

You want to build your own home so that it turns out exactly the way you want it. To get your roof looking right for the building project and your own dreams might mean looking at a variety of covering until it is just right for you.

Our unique system gives you a log on that you can then change your tile to get various prices.

Change the tile knowing that you still have a list of all the right materials. Fax out the materials list to suppliers in your area to get pricing. Using our unique database of products and pricing we can give you indicative labour rates. This will allow you to price your job for budgeting purposes as well as giving you a basis on which to negotiate a deal with a roofing contractor.

Use our list of contractors to find one in your area.

Architects

Designing the roofing layer of a project requires flair and understanding of the structure as well as an intimate knowledge of the products being put on it. Getting the correct products specified so that they work for your client is what we do. Working with the major UK manufacturers and suppliers we have compiled the most extensive database of roofing products. Using our unique linking system we know that the products that you specify for your customer will all work together providing a water tight, effective and good looking roof.
