Replacement Garage Roofs
Garage Roofs Specialists in Glasgow provide expert roofing services across Glasgow, North Lanarkshire, West Lothian, Ayrshire, Kilmarnock, and East Dunbartonshire.
If your garage roof is leaking or severely damaged, a full replacement may be necessary, especially when repairs are no longer effective or cost-efficient.
At Garage Roof Specialists Ltd Glasgow, we offer a free survey to assess the condition of your roof and advise whether a replacement is the best long-term solution.
Asbestos Removal & Replacement Roof
Asbestos was once a widely used material for garage roofs in the UK due to its durability, but its use was banned in the 1990s because of serious health risks. Many older garages in Glasgow still have asbestos roofs, which can become dangerous if they show signs of damage like flaking, cracks, or leaks. If you notice any of these issues, the roof may no longer be safe.
EPDM Rubber & Felt Garage Roofs
When referring to rubber roofs, it typically means EPDM Firestone rubber roofing, ideal for flat garage roofs. While it requires careful installation, it offers excellent durability and performs well in harsh weather—perfect for Glasgow’s climate. It also comes with a minimum 20-year manufacturer’s warranty, making it a long-lasting roofing solution.
Felt is a classic and affordable garage roofing material, commonly used on attached and flat-roof garages. It's easy to install and repair, but not very durable on its own—it requires a solid base and can be damaged by weather or impact. Felt is not ideal for areas with extreme temperatures.
Flat Roofs
Most roofs installed by Garage Roof Specialists Ltd Glasgow are flat roofs for garages, extensions, porches, sheds, and other structures. Flat roofs require high-quality materials and expert installation since they lack the natural drainage of pitched roofs.
Popular options include EPDM Firestone rubber, known for its excellent waterproofing, 20 year warranty, and 50+ year lifespan, and metal cladding, valued for durability and modern design.
Poor flat roof installation can lead to issues like leaks, ponding water, blistering, and bubbling, often requiring full replacement. The company has extensive experience delivering reliable, cost-effective flat roofing across Glasgow and Central Scotland.
Garage Removal
Garage Roof Specialists Ltd Glasgow also offers garage removal, often including asbestos roof removal. If your garage is old, unused, or falling apart, removing it could free up valuable space in your garden or property.
With fewer people using garages today, repurposing the area can enhance your home's appearance and functionality. Looking at what neighbours have done may inspire ideas for transforming the space.
Carports
Carports are sturdy, roofed structures supported by posts, used to shelter vehicles like cars or motorbikes. Usually attached to or built beside a home, they offer protection from the weather and easy access.
Popular among homeowners with limited space, carports are also used in commercial settings. They can be customised to fit any vehicle size, providing a practical alternative to a garage.
Farms / Barn Roofs
Many farms across Scotland have old barns and agricultural buildings with asbestos roofs that may need repair or full replacement.
Garage Roof Specialists Ltd offers this service throughout rural areas, including Argyll and Bute, South Ayrshire, Dumfries and Galloway, the Borders, East Lothian, Stirling, Perth, Fife, and beyond. Replacement options include asbestos cladding or complete removal and new roofing solutions.
Garage Roof Repairs
Leaks are the most common garage roof issue, often caused by poor installation, debris, damage, or aging. Missing roofing materials, holes from faulty installation or pests, and shrinkage of roofing materials also contribute to damage.Proper professional repairs can fix these problems, extend your roof’s lifespan, and save money compared to full replacement. Repairing your roof strengthens its durability and helps maintain its quality for years to come.
