What I do in Gorinchem
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 Gorinchem, and what that means for you
The roofscape of Gorinchem
Inside the ramparts stands old building with small roof areas and many junctions. Gildenwijk, Haarwijk and Lingewijk are post-war and seventies, with blocks, terraced houses and the flat extensions and sheds that go with them.
What that means for your roof
In a fortified town getting the material in is often the hardest part of the job. I allow for that in the planning, so you are not caught out during the work and the street is not blocked longer than necessary.
Working inside the walls
Within the ramparts the street is narrow, the van rarely stands at the door and the material often has to be carried some way or lifted up. That is manageable, but it wants arranging beforehand: where the van stands, how the old roof comes down, and whether an exemption is needed to stand on the quay for a while. I look at that when measuring up. Outside the ramparts, in Haarwijk or Hoog Dalem, access is simple and an extension roof is usually closed up again by the end of the day.
What people in Gorinchem ask
There is drilling and torching, so it is not quiet. I clear up what I bring and take the old material away.
Often not right at the door, and it does not need to. When measuring up I look at where I can stand and how the material gets up, so the street is not blocked longer than necessary.
Yes. By the water the access is usually straightforward: room to stand and material that can come right up to the roof. That makes a large area pleasant work there.
Where in Gorinchem is your roof?
Old, narrow premises within the walls. Small flat roofs behind the facade, with plenty of lead work and rarely a direct way up.
Post-war walk-up housing and low-rise with continuous roof areas and an upstand running across several properties.
Sixties and seventies. Terraced houses with a flat extension at the back and sheds attached to one another.
Mixed: blocks beside low-rise, with roof areas that vary considerably in size from block to block.
Newer housing with carports, dormers and extensions still carrying their first layer of bitumen.
Business premises and warehouses by the water. Broad, open roof areas that are easy to reach and can be done in one run.
