What I do in Hardinxveld-Giessendam
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 Hardinxveld-Giessendam, and what that means for you
The roofscape of Hardinxveld-Giessendam
Boven-Hardinxveld, Neder-Hardinxveld and Giessendam lie like a ribbon along the water. There is a good deal from the sixties and seventies, with flat extensions and sheds, and along the dyke older, more detached building with smaller roof areas.
What that means for your roof
Small roof areas with many edges and junctions take more work than one large empty area: the work is in the corners, the upstands and the place where the roof meets the facade. So that is the first thing I look at when measuring up.
Why a small roof is not always a small job
On an empty area of forty square metres the covering goes down easily. On twenty square metres with six corners, a chimney, two outlets and an upstand against the facade, the work is in everything except the area itself. Along the dyke in Hardinxveld that is the rule rather than the exception. So I do not just measure the surface but walk all the edges and junctions, so nothing turns up along the way that we have not discussed.
What people in Hardinxveld-Giessendam ask
At the junctions. Every corner, outlet and upstand is a place where two things come together that both move, and that is exactly where water finds its way.
That the roof edge takes the worst of it. A well-fixed roof trim and an upstand with the bitumen carried around it matter more here than further inland.
Yes. They have usually been there as long as the house and fail around the same time, so it makes sense to look at them together.
Where in Hardinxveld-Giessendam is your roof?
Sixties and seventies, with flat extensions behind the houses and sheds lying in rows against one another.
Closer to the dyke and older. Smaller roof areas with many corners and junctions against the neighbours.
Around Peulenstraat the building is mixed: shops with flats above and flat roofs on the extensions behind.
Recent building, with dormers, carports and extensions still carrying their first layer.
The old ribbon right on the water. Irregular, small flat roofs with plenty of lead work and the full force of the river wind.
Business units and warehouses with large flat roofs, where fall and enough outlets are decisive.
