Overview

New Agricultural Roofing in Whitehaven and the surrounding area

Stock, machinery and stored crop all shelter under the same sheeting, and it needs to keep the weather out for years. We fit new agricultural roofs across the range, from a lone field barn to a complete run of steel portal-frame buildings, agreeing the sheet type, insulation and rooflights with you before work starts.

Whitehaven and the land around it, taking in Rottington and Snellings, is regular ground for new roofing, as is the wider Cumbria. Let us know the postcode and what the building is used for, and we will come and quote.

What we cover

  • Box-profile steel roof sheeting
  • Insulated composite (sandwich) panels
  • Fibre cement sheeting for like-for-like replacement
  • GRP rooflight panels for natural daylight
  • New purlins and structural steel repairs where needed
  • Ridge, flashings, closures and matching guttering

FAQs

New Agricultural Roofing in Whitehaven: common questions

What roofing sheets do you fit on farm buildings?

Mainly box-profile steel and insulated composite. Fibre cement stays on the list for buildings where matching the existing sheeting matters. Whichever you lean towards, the cost, insulation and lifespan get explained before anything is ordered.

Can you re-roof a building while it stays in use?

Yes, generally. By taking the roof a section at a time the contents stay protected, and the building is made weathertight again before we finish for the day.

Do you cover new grain store roofs?

Regularly. Grain stores sit alongside potato and general crop stores in our work, and we can specify to limit condensation over the produce.

How long does a new agricultural roof take to fit?

That depends on how big it is and how easily we can get to it. Single-span barns are usually days; large ranges take longer. The timescale we quote is one we hold to.

Do you offer a guarantee on new roofs?

We do. The work is guaranteed by us, the sheets and panels by their manufacturers, and both are set out before you go ahead.
