Fibreglass Roofs

Fibreglass roofs, often used in residential and commercial buildings, offer numerous advantages due to their unique properties. Here is a more detailed look at fibreglass roofs:

Advantages of Fibreglass Roofs

Longevity: fibreglass roofs can last 25-30 years or longer with proper care.
Resistance: they are resistant to corrosion, rot, and UV damage, which prolongs their lifespan.
Seamless Layer: fibreglass roofs create a seamless, waterproof barrier that prevents leaks.
Weather Resistance: they can withstand heavy rain, snow, and extreme temperatures.
Minimal Upkeep: fibreglass roofs require minimal maintenance compared to other materials. Regular inspections and cleaning can keep them in good condition.
Easy Repairs: small cracks or damages can be easily repaired with fibreglass patches.
Structural Benefits: being lightweight, fibreglass roofs do not put excessive stress on the building structure.
Ease of Installation: the lightweight nature also makes transportation and installation easier.
Design Flexibility: fibreglass can be moulded into various shapes and sizes, allowing for creative and customized roof designs.
Compatibility: suitable for both flat and pitched roofs, as well as for green roofs and roof terraces.
Smooth Finish: fibreglass roofs offer a smooth, attractive finish that can be painted or coated in assorted colours.
Modern Look: they provide a sleek, modern appearance to buildings.

Installation Process

Surface Cleaning: the roof surface must be thoroughly cleaned and prepared.
Priming: A primer is applied to ensure proper adhesion of the fibreglass material
Matting: fibreglass matting is laid out across the roof surface.
Resin Application: resin is applied over the matting, usually in several layers, to create a strong, waterproof barrier.
Curing: the resin is left to cure, forming a hard, durable surface.
Topcoat: a topcoat may be applied for additional protection and to improve the aesthetic appearance.
Regular Inspections: conduct periodic inspections to identify and repair any minor cracks or damage early.
Cleaning: keep the roof clean from debris, moss, and algae to prevent damage.
Repairs: use fibreglass repair kits for minor fixes and consult professionals for more significant issues.

Fibreglass roofs are an excellent choice for many building types due to their durability, waterproofing, and limited maintenance. While the initial cost may be higher, the long-term benefits often outweigh the expense.
