Steel Roof Overcladding: Improve Performance, Extend Lifespan & Future-Proof Your Building

Steel roof overcladding is one of the most effective ways to upgrade an ageing industrial or commercial roof without the cost, disruption, or downtime associated with a full roof replacement. By installing a new, insulated steel system directly over your existing roof, you can dramatically improve thermal performance, meet modern building regulations, enhance weather resistance, and create a strong foundation for future technologies such as solar PV.

At Grange Roofing, we specialise in high-quality roof overcladding solutions designed to increase efficiency, protect your assets, and keep your operations running smoothly.

Why Choose Steel Roof Overcladding?

✔ Improve Thermal Performance & Reduce Energy Costs

Overcladding allows us to install new insulation as part of the build-up, significantly boosting the thermal efficiency of your building. This reduces heat loss, cuts energy bills, and creates a more stable internal environment—ideal for warehouses, factories, and commercial units.

✔ Comply With Current Building Regulations

Many older roofs no longer meet today’s standards for insulation, weatherproofing, or fire performance. Overcladding brings your building up to current regulations, increasing safety, efficiency, and compliance without the need for a full strip-and-replace.

✔ Minimal Disruption to Your Operations

Because the existing roof stays in place, overcladding massively reduces internal disruption. There is no exposure to the elements, minimal noise internally, and no risk to staff, stock, or machinery—allowing your business to operate as normal throughout the project.

✔ Ideal Base for Solar Panel Installation

A newly overclad steel roof provides the perfect platform for modern solar PV systems. Stronger fixing points, improved thermal performance, and an extended roof lifespan make it an ideal time to integrate renewable energy into your site.

✔ Long-Term Protection & Modernised Appearance

Overcladding transforms tired, leaking, or outdated roofs into smart, modern systems that deliver decades of performance. It improves weather resistance, eliminates leaks, and enhances the overall appearance of your building.

When Is Overcladding the Right Choice?

Steel roof overcladding is ideal if:

  • Your existing roof is leaking or deteriorating

  • You want to improve insulation without stopping operations

  • Your business needs to comply with updated regulations

  • You’re planning to install solar panels

  • You want a quicker, more cost-effective alternative to full replacement
