What I do in Albrandswaard
Flat roofs and bitumen
New bituminous roofing on a house, extension, garage or commercial building.
Roof renovation
Due for replacement? I measure up, assess it and tell you honestly whether a repair will still do.
Roof leaks
Tracing the leak is part of the job. Urgent work is scheduled as soon as possible.
Roofs with solar panels
A roof made ready for panels, or repairs to roofs that already carry them.
Zinc work
Zinc gutters, rainwater downpipes and wall copings, new or repaired.
Roof insulation
Insulate during the renovation. Doing it later means opening the whole roof again.
Roof maintenance and inspection
Having a look every five years often prevents a bigger repair.
Lead work
Lead flashing at the chimney, the wall and the roof window, where leaks most often start.
Roof edges and fascia
Where nearly all wind damage begins: aluminium roof trim and new upstands.
Timber and roof decking
Replacing rotten decking under the roofing, so the new roof lies on sound timber.
Vents and roof penetrations
Roof penetrations fitted, torched in or removed, and finished watertight.
Skylights and roof windows
Fitting and replacing, with an upstand that keeps the water out.
The roofs of Albrandswaard, and what that means for you
The roofscape of Albrandswaard
Albrandswaard is mixed. Rhoon and Poortugaal have an old centre with post-war extensions around it. Portland was only built around the turn of the century, with many houses carrying flat extensions, dormers and sheds that are now close to twenty-five years old.
What that means for your roof
On building from around 2000 the original layer of bitumen is often still in place. An inspection then makes sense: if it is still sound you hear that, and if it is due for replacement you know before the water comes in.
The moment when looking becomes worthwhile
A bitumen roof generally lasts twenty to thirty years. In Portland and Essendael many houses still carry the layer they were built with, and that is now in the second half of its life. That is the moment to know where you stand, rather than when a patch appears on the ceiling. During an inspection I walk the area, the edges, the upstands and the outlets, and I say what I see, even if that is that you have years left.
What people in Albrandswaard ask
Properly laid and with a clean finish at the edges: generally twenty to thirty years. On watertightness I give a 10-year guarantee.
That depends on how it is faring. Sometimes a new layer can go over it, sometimes there is moisture underneath and covering it is pointless. That shows on site.
The roof. Panels on a covering with five years left means they have to come off again. Have the roof looked at first, and you will know whether the order is right.
Where in Albrandswaard is your roof?
An old centre with post-war extensions around it. Mixed building, with flat extensions behind the houses and small roof areas in the village.
Similar in layout, alongside seventies low-rise whose extensions are now due their second layer.
Built at speed around the turn of the century. Many extensions, dormers and sheds, all of the same age.
Recent building, with carports and extensions still carrying their first layer of bitumen.
Generous plots with outbuildings, garages and barns that almost all have a flat roof of their own.
Scattered building in open fields, where the wind has free rein and the roof edges take the worst of it.
