QUALITY PRODUCTS

New Zealand manufacturers have gone to a lot of trouble to ensure their products are tested and proven to withstand the special environment in New Zealand such as coastal or geothermal areas.

Some products also need to be specific to commercial or agricultural areas that have a high build up of pollutants, fumes or industrial emissions.

RE-ROOFING

ALL ROOFS HAVE A FINITE LIFESPAN

Eventually every roof will need to be replaced due to old age or other variables that may affect the lifespan of a roof.

Paton Roofing Services can provide advice on all aspects of re-roofing. A new roof will add value, improve the look and provide long term protection to a valuable asset.

Why would a roof fail?

Old Age
Wrong product used for the environment
Poor Maintenance
Structural issues / Damage
Poor Design

PLANNING A RE-ROOF

Careful planning and consideration when re-roofing can save a lot of time and money with ongoing problems with a failing roof.

Questions to ask when re-roofing:

Are there existing problems that can be remedied while re-roofing?
Does the roof structure need repairs or replacing?
What materials are suitable for the environment?
Do you need to replace spouting, guttering and other rainwater goods?
How will we re-roof a building while it is still in use?
What Health & Safety issues are there to consider?

RE-ROOF WITH A FUTURE PLAN

Taking a long term view in regard to the cost of re-roofing will save money in the long term.

Avoid the temptation of using cheap products or cutting corners on design as this will only give a short term solution.

Regular maintenance will increase the durability of the products used. Have a maintenance plan which includes inspecting and cleaning of the products used to give the roof as much of a lifespan as possible.

RAINWATER GOODS

GUTTERS & DOWNPIPES

Rainwater disposal systems are designed to catch and channel water that runs off a roof. Various products in PVC and metal are widely available to suit the roofing material used. Generally a larger box gutter would be recommended for commercial, industrial use.

The design required will be dependent on numerous factors including:

Rain fall intensity
Roof cladding profile capacity
Catchment area
Roof pitch
Sump design
Penetrations that may obstruct water flow
Overflows

RAINWATER HEADS

A range of standard rainwater heads are readily available or can be designed and manufactured to suit the style of a building and particular catchment requirements.

Rainwater heads are placed on the outside to the building to ensure the gutter will not overflow. Both rainwater heads and sumps can reduce flow issues.

These can be manufactured in a variety of materials.
