2. Roof element proposal

Together we can determine which roofing system and specific build up will be optimal for each individual roof area on your project given the construction type, level of access and required performance.

3. Specification and detail design

You will receive the Bauder specification package that answers your brief and meets the needs of the building.  As a specialist designer for our solutions, we work with the Principal Designer to include relevant standard detail drawings and other technical calculations.  

4. Contractor selection

The Bauder approved contractors best placed to deliver your new roof will competitively price and tender for your project. Our national network of contractors undergo a rigorous selection process and their installers are trained specifically in the application of our systems, so you are ensured an expert installation.

5. Installation of the roofing solution

Once the Bauder approved contractor has been appointed, a pre-contract meeting will make sure that the project delivery is well coordinated. The works are closely monitored by Bauder site technicians with regular inspections and live time reports to ensure the quality and waterproof integrity of the roof.

6. Sign off and guarantee

A full final inspection is completed by our site technician team before the guarantee is issued. Bauder’s service doesn’t just stop once the roof installation has been completed, we provide industry-leading guarantees on our products that are installed by our national network of approved contractors.

We work on a one-to-one basis to ensure that the refurbishment roof specification we generate for you meets the needs of the building and project stakeholders and will confirm suitability of the solution to each roof area.
