A pitched roof has great longevity but when the roof reaches the end of its life it’s important to consider the following factors;
The heritage of the roof and previous materials used.
The wider environment and how this could affect the roofing solution chosen.
Effective systems for low pitched roofs.
Cost effectiveness.
At BMI UK & Ireland we’ve become experts when it comes to pitched roof refurbishment projects. We are able to quickly identify the problem, come up with a solution and assign the right materials to make the project succeed. The following examples all serve to illustrate the benefits of a well-planned pitched roof refurbishment project

Styling Edwardian tiles at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School
Styling Edwardian tiles at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School
This school’s original Edwardian tiled roof was damaged by a fire, which brought a great degree of distress considering the historical importance and aesthetic prestige of the roof. Featuring several turrets, dormer windows and other decorative elements, it has striking visual impact. We worked closely with the roofing contractor to recommend the perfect solution for the project. BMI Redland Rosemary Clay Classic in Red was selected to replicate the Edwardian style, whilst also providing added fire-resistance.
Battling the coast At Burgh Island
Battling the coast At Burgh Island
Coastal weather posed unique challenges for this roof on the Burgh Island hotel, which was falling into disrepair. The roof itself was subject to extreme weather conditions and also required a low pitch solution that could withstand the wild and unpredictable coastal weather. The architect chose BMI SpecMaster to help provide specification assistance and warranty – specifying Cambrian Slate for its natural aesthetics and hard wearing durability.

Repairing damage at Heathrow Vortex
Repairing damage at Heathrow Vortex
Heathrow Airport’s vortex effect is caused by low-flying aircraft, damaging roof tiles which can be pulled clear off a home by the force of a landing plane. Heathrow offered replacement roofs whenever vortex strikes occurred. The chosen solution for the replacement roofs was the BMI Redland 49 chosen for its strength and durability. Fixed with both clip and nail, Redland 49 is both easy to install and extremely durable.
