Tenement roof repairs in Edinburgh

Roof programmes planned around residents and shared ownership

A tenement roof protects several homes and often contains multiple chimneys, valleys, skews, rooflights and shared drainage details. The route of water can be difficult to identify from an individual flat, so a reliable repair scope should consider the roof covering and its adjoining masonry and leadwork.

Restorex delivers planned roof repairs and renewals for factors, owners and professional teams. Work can include slate replacement, complete reslating, chimney repairs, ridge and skew work, lead valleys and gutters, and local timber repairs discovered during opening-up. Findings are recorded so necessary changes can be agreed clearly.

Occupied-building planning is central to delivery. Scaffold access, shared entrances, resident communication, noise, temporary protection and daily weathering all affect the programme. At Rothesay Terrace, Restorex delivered a three-phase reroofing project across 28 occupied homes while maintaining access throughout.
