A tale of two projects: Two Recent Roofing Transformations by Frampton Roofing

At Frampton Roofing, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality roofing services that not only ensure safety and functionality but also enhance the aesthetic appeal of properties. In our latest blog post, we're excited to showcase two recent projects that demonstrate our commitment to excellence and attention to detail.

Project 1: Dormer Roof Renovation

Our first project involved a comprehensive overhaul of a dormer roof. The existing felt and boarding were completely removed to make way for a more robust solution. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of what we did:


  • Boarding Installation: We began by replacing the old boarding with new 8x2 OSB boards, which were securely fixed to the existing joists. OSB (Oriented Strand Board) is known for its strength and durability, making it an ideal choice for roofing applications.
  • Trim Application: To ensure a clean and finished look, we applied pre-formed trims along the edges of the dormer. These trims not only enhance the roof’s appearance but also contribute to its overall structural integrity.
  • Resin and Topcoat Application: The entire roof was then coated with Lloyd’s approved resin followed by a Lloyd's approved topcoat. This combination provides a waterproof barrier and UV protection, guaranteeing longevity and resilience against the elements.


This project not only improved the functionality and safety of the roof but also significantly enhanced the property's curb appeal.

Project 2: Tile Roof Restoration

The second project focused on restoring a tile roof while preserving its original charm. The process was meticulous, ensuring that each step was carried out with precision:



Tile and Felt Replacement: We started by carefully removing the existing tiles, which were set aside for reuse. Underneath, we installed new breathable felt and battens to provide a solid foundation for the tiles.


  • Reinstallation of Tiles: The original tiles were then reinstalled. This not only maintains the aesthetic consistency of the building but also is a cost-effective approach to roofing.
  • Lead Work and Cementing: To complete the restoration, new lead work was installed, and the verges were cemented. These enhancements are crucial for ensuring that the roof remains watertight and structurally sound.


The result was a beautifully restored roof that blends seamlessly with the original structure, providing enhanced protection and longevity.

Commitment to Quality


Both projects underscore our commitment to using only the highest quality materials and techniques. By employing Lloyd's approved products, we ensure that our roofing solutions meet rigorous standards of durability and performance. Each project, no matter the scale, is approached with a focus on delivering exceptional results that meet our clients' needs and exceed their expectations.
