Why Choose Flat Roofing for Industrial Buildings?
Flat roofing is an ideal choice for modern industrial and commercial buildings due to:
-
Cost Efficiency – Flat roofs require fewer structural materials than pitched alternatives
-
Ease of Access – Simple maintenance and inspection processes
-
Usable Roof Space – Supports plant, solar PV, HVAC systems, and access routes
-
Design Flexibility – Compatible with multiple insulation and waterproofing systems
-
Speed of Installation – Faster build schedules for new builds and refurbishments
At VBS Ltd, we evaluate your roof’s condition, usage, and lifespan expectations to recommend the most suitable system for long-term value and performance.
Flat Roofing Systems We Install
We supply and install all leading flat roofing systems for industrial and commercial applications:
Single-Ply Membranes (EPDM, TPO, PVC)
Single-ply membranes are lightweight, UV-resistant, and ideal for large-scale industrial flat roofs.
-
EPDM: Synthetic rubber, cold-applied, offers long-term flexibility and UV resistance
-
TPO: Heat-welded seams, high solar reflectivity, recyclable and energy-efficient
-
PVC: Excellent fire resistance, strong chemical durability, and secure weldable seams
These systems are installed using adhesives, mechanical fasteners, or hot-air welding and come with 20–30 year manufacturer warranties.
Liquid-Applied Waterproofing
A seamless cold-applied coating that bonds directly to your roof substrate — ideal for:
- Irregular shapes and detailing
- Emergency waterproofing
- Metal roofs showing signs of corrosion
We use BBA-approved polyurethane liquid systems which cure quickly, resist ponding water, and provide up to 25 years of performance.
Overlay & Re-Roofing Solutions
Where the existing flat roof structure remains sound, we offer full overlay systems to avoid strip-out costs and disruption.
Benefits include:
- Avoids costly strip-and-replace
- Reduces waste and downtime
- Upgrades U-values with new insulation
Overlays are particularly suitable for live industrial sites, warehouses, and large commercial buildings.
Dont just trust our word for it, here’s what our clients say about VBS Ltd
“Recently used VBS to overclad an asbestos roof that had reached the end of its useful life. The roofing team that we had took great pride in "their roof" and the finished result has transformed the look of the facility.
We decided upon the overcladding approach to reduce the impact upon our production as they could overclad whilst we continued underneath once the sacrificial safety netting was installed.”
Andy Simmonds – Digital Business Transformation & Sustainability Manager
MetCom - Stafford, Staffordshire
“We own a large textile mill and having repaired the life out of the main roof decided it was time to invest and renew the roof. After 8 months of searching for a reputable roofing firm, I came across VBS and the Valentine family. Their professionalism and knowledge was so apparent and the time they were willing to spend with us in helping us decide which method to adopt was refreshing. At no point in this lengthy process did i ever feel under pressure to accept their quotes. We felt very much at ease and made a gut decision to work alongside VBS to renew our 40,000 sqft roof. Time frames were not an issue and works commenced late in 2024 and have been completed and signed off very recently. I highly recommend this lovely family firm especially on large roofing projects such as ours. thank you for a job well done! I am willing to provide photos and share our journey and experiences with VBS to interested parties.”
David Weidenbaum - Managing Director
Baum Trading Ltd, Pilot Mill, Bury, Greater Manchester
“Absolutely made up with this company from start to finish. They have completed all works within the promised time frame and to a very high standard. The lads who completed the works were respectful regarding our site procedures, on time every day, and courteous at all times, what a fantastic bunch. We were informed at every stage of the works as to what was required for each stage, the whole job couldn't have run any smoother. I'm not usually as kind when it comes to reviews, but this company deserve all the praise I can give them. We did our homework before choosing VBS Limited, I'm thankful we did, we chose the right company for our needs.”
Scott Langridge
Hadfields Transport - Manchester City
“I am extremely impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail of the full team including the quote, account and site team.
They overcladd my commercial unit, and the result of my roof over clad was exactly what I was hoping for.
The team were friendly and knowledgeable and answered all my questions.
Overall, I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for roof over cladding services.
They truly went above and beyond to ensure that I was completely satisfied, and it was clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority for them.
Thank you for a wonderful experience!”
Jay Ahmed - Business Manager

“Absolutely fantastic service, Excellent value, professionally managed from beginning to end of project. Couldn't recommend more highly! Will 100% use again and recommend to everyone!”
Nathan Markey - Facilities Manager
Schawk, Salford, Greater Manchester
Really pleased with the roof replacement of our old corrugated cement sheeted apex roof on our warehouse and factory in Bolton with the latest roofing panels. Thanks to the planned work being carried out efficiently and safely it was completed slightly ahead of time and disruption to our factory operation was minimised. The team kept us informed and we could plan around the situation. The new roof panels save a lot of maintenance issues and the bonus has been a huge improvement from increased natural light. It has visually transformed the whole factory, and is helping us provide and elevated impression to our customers. The outcome has been better than expected. Very impressed with VBS
