At Industrial Roofing Services (NE) Ltd, we install, repair, and upgrade metal roof sheets and cladding systems. We work on factories, warehouses, public buildings, and specialist facilities across Newcastle upon Tyne. Our work protects your building from weather, water ingress, and heat loss. You get practical advice, planned work, and tested products that keep your property watertight and safe.
Roof sheeting and cladding services cover design, supply, and installation. We work with metal and composite panels. These form the outer skin of your roof and walls. We operate across Newcastle upon Tyne and the wider North East. Our work helps building owners protect structures. We defend against wind, rain, temperature change, and day-to-day wear.
We support a wide range of sites and sectors, including:
You can find more detail in our sectors and building types information. This shows which industries we already serve.
We focus on commercial and industrial roofing. Our team understands the demands of large spans and busy sites. We know how to handle sensitive operations. We match materials, fixings, and details to your roof structure. We use tested coating systems. We plan work to reduce disruption to your staff and visitors.
When you work with us on sheet cladding, you gain:

Choosing the right cladding material matters. Performance, fire behaviour, and appearance all depend on your selection. We work with metal systems and compatible trims. These suit different sectors, exposure levels, and budgets. We consider existing substrates and fixings. We address legacy issues such as corrosion or staining.
Typical cladding materials and finishes include:
You can read more in our guide to roof cladding. This provides a technical explanation of sheet cladding on industrial roofs.
We inspect the roof structure before any cladding project starts. We review access routes and existing coverings. This helps us plan safe access. We agree phasing with you. We select details that suit your building. We prepare a proposal. This sets out the scope of work and programme.
A typical roof cladding project follows these steps:
You can find more detail in our industrial roof maintenance guide. This provides a structured view of how we look after commercial roofs.
Roof sheets can corrode, delaminate, or become loose with age. We look for leaks, staining, damaged fixings, and cut-edge corrosion. We agree the most practical repair strategy. Sometimes we treat and coat existing sheets. Other times replacement gives better long-term value.
Common roof sheeting solutions include:
| Option | Typical use case | Disruption level |
|---|---|---|
| Local repairs | Isolated leaks or minor damage | Low |
| Coating works | Widespread cut-edge corrosion | Medium |
| Over-sheeting | Ageing roof where deck remains sound | Medium |
| Full replacement | Severe corrosion or deck failure | Higher |
You can find guidance in our commercial roof repair and replacement guide. This helps you understand when repair or replacement makes more sense.
Many older industrial roofs use asbestos cement sheets. We handle these roofs carefully. We use controlled methods when you repair, over-clad, or replace them. Our teams work to current guidance. We use appropriate access systems. We manage waste through licensed carriers.
When we assess asbestos cement roofs, we look at:
You can see more in our asbestos roof repairs service information. This provides detail on safe options if you manage a building with an asbestos roof.
Roof work brings elevated risk. We treat planning and supervision very seriously. We prepare method statements and risk assessments. We agree access routes. We plan exclusion zones. Our teams hold relevant training for working at height. We use fall protection, guarding, and edge protection where needed.
Our health and safety approach covers:

Metal sheeting and cladding systems work closely with insulation. They interact with vapour control layers. When we refurbish a roof, we often add or upgrade insulation. This helps you lower heat loss. It reduces running costs. Correct detailing also helps reduce condensation risk. It keeps internal environments more stable.
Energy performance improvements often come from:
You can read more in our industrial roof insulation and energy performance guide. This explores how roofing upgrades can support lower energy use.
Early planning helps you control budgets and disruption. We suggest starting with a roof survey. This applies especially if you have leaks or visible corrosion. It matters if you have concerns about asbestos cement. From there, we can prioritise areas. We phase works around your operations. We review options for over-cladding or replacement.
Useful steps when you start planning include:
You can contact us through our website form. Add your details to the enquiry section. One of our team members will get back to you. We will arrange an assessment with our team.
We work on a wide range of commercial and industrial buildings. We operate in and around Newcastle upon Tyne. This includes warehouses, factories, and logistics hubs. We support healthcare facilities, schools, retail units, and leisure sites. We also work on public sector and utility buildings. These need careful planning for access, security, and operational continuity.
We mainly use profiled steel or aluminium sheets. We work with composite insulated panels. We use single-skin systems with separate insulation. We combine these with matching flashings, cappings, and gutter details. For refurbishment projects we apply specialist coatings. These include Giromax or TOR systems. They control corrosion and extend the performance of existing sheeting.
Timescales depend on roof size, access, and weather. The amount of existing material needing stripping also matters. We can complete smaller areas relatively quickly. Large industrial roofs may require phased works. During planning we discuss your operational needs. We agree a realistic programme. You will know how the project will progress.
Yes, we work on asbestos cement roofs. We use controlled methods that follow current guidance. We focus on safe access. We minimise disturbance to existing sheets. We arrange disposal through licensed waste carriers. We may recommend over-cladding, local repairs, or full replacement. This depends on roof condition as part of a planned project.
Roof cladding and sheeting form the outer layer of your building envelope. They play a major role in heat loss, solar gain, and air leakage. When we refurbish a roof, we often combine new sheeting with upgraded insulation. We improve detailing. This helps you cut energy use. It supports more stable internal conditions.
Most commercial roofs benefit from inspection at least once a year. Check them after severe weather too. Regular surveys help you find small defects. They spot blocked gutters and early corrosion. This happens before they cause leaks or structural problems. We can set up a planned inspection schedule. This matches your site, sector, and risk profile.
Yes, we provide planned maintenance for sheeted and cladded roofs. This can include periodic inspections and gutter clearing. We handle minor repairs. We monitor coatings or sealants. Many building owners combine maintenance with occasional larger projects. These include over-sheeting or insulation upgrades. This spreads investment and keeps roofs performing as intended.
You can contact our office by phone or email. You can use the enquiry form on our website. We will ask questions about your building and sector. We will ask about any known roof issues. We then arrange a suitable time to visit. After the survey, we provide findings and recommendations. These come in a clear proposal.
Our base is in Newcastle upon Tyne. We regularly work across Tyne and Wear. We operate in the wider North East of England. For larger projects we may travel further. This depends on scope and timescales. If you manage several sites, we can discuss options. We can support your portfolio across the region.
Costs vary based on roof size and access. Material choice affects pricing. Insulation upgrades matter. We consider whether you need repairs, over-cladding, or full replacement. We start with a survey. This helps us understand your roof. We discuss options. We then provide a clear quotation. This sets out the proposed works and indicative programme.
