Roofing is an ancient craft and keeps buildings dry and
weatherproof. Roofers install new roofs and guttering and repair
and renovate old ones.
Metal roofing is becoming increasingly popular, and a well built
metal roof can last up to 50 years. In fact, the roof of Chartres
Cathedral in France is over a hundred years old and the original
copper has oxidised to a pale green colour.
Metal roofers are skilled professionals, whose use of metal and
fastening of joints are all essential to a well built, dry
building. Safety is very important in this profession because of
the height at which some work is carried out.
