Unrivalled 30 Year Roof Coating Protection A First At Synertec

The completed work at Synertec Warrington, by Cladding Coatings

Industrial units need ultimate protection for their walls and roofs that withstands the elements to keep properties secure. Document control company Synertec, based on the outskirts of Warrington, Cheshire, knew they needed to sustain staff safety and maintain their strong reputation, so undertook an in-depth wall and roof cladding refurbishment project.

This landmark project was the first time specialist applicators, Cladding Coatings used the Alltimes Coatings’ Advantage Graphene 30-year system on a full building roof. The system offers exceptional anti-rust and anti-corrosion properties, alongside its three-decade guarantee for peace of mind in installation and performance.

The project began with an expert on-site survey, objectively assessing the damage to clearly identify problem areas and how to tackle them swiftly. This was supported by a drone survey, giving full sight of the roof cladding, rooflights and guttering through recorded footage for playback and assessment.

Introducing Advantage Graphene For Roof Coating

The roof cladding on this unit was deteriorating badly. The drone survey revealed the extent of the damage to the metal roof sheets, rooflights and gutters. Advantage Graphene is a new addition to the Cladding Coatings paint system portfolio, created to target rust and corrosion on metal roofs with reliability and ease. It boasts an outstanding 30-year guarantee, meaning it’s accompanied by complete peace of mind in its multiple decades of assured performance quality, durability and reliability across a property’s roof.

Advantage Graphene is a lightweight, UV coating for optimal roof protection. However, it also offers exceptional strength. Stronger than steel, Graphene forms an almost completely impenetrable barrier. This was ideal for Synertec, as the barrier makes it virtually impossible for even the tiniest fragment of debris or smallest droplet of water to bypass the graphene. The result is a lightweight, UV resistant coating for ultimate building protection.

Implementing Replacement Rooflights

As well as attending to the metal roof cladding, the building rooflights needed addressing. In this case, the rooflights needed replacing. This was a necessary step, rather than the preferable repair process, as the rooflights were too badly damaged to recover: safety needed to take priority.

Finally, debris and blockages were cleared from the roof guttering, which had caused a backlog of water damage due to poor drainage, and the guttering systems were relined using the WeatherFOLD system to allow them to work efficiently and offer long term protection.

Cladding Refurbishment And Protection

Following on from the roof, the rear elevation of the unit also required refurbishment. To target and fix the tired and worn cladding paintwork, the Rust-Oleum Noxyde® paint system was used to recoat the metal wall cladding, roller shutter doors and building trims. Rust-Oleum Noxyde®’s 200% flexible, heavy-duty, anti-flake and anti-corrosion properties delivered a smooth overall finish using on-site spraying application methods for a professional finish. For an on-brand final touch, three different shades of the Noxyde® paint system were used. Two were applied to the wall cladding, and a third, a bold green, was chosen to the trims on the doors and the building itself. Colour matching to suit company branding is really important to achieve a high quality seamless finish.
