Enviroply Roofing is pleased to announce that we have achieved accreditation with the Bitumen Flat Roofing Association (BFRA).
This latest industry recognition reflects our continued commitment to specialist roofing, technical expertise and delivering high-quality solutions for our customers. Our BFRA accreditation is an important addition to our professional credentials and strengthens our position as a specialist contractor working across the flat roofing sector.
A Specialist Association for Bitumen Roofing
The Bitumen Flat Roofing Association (BFRA) is dedicated specifically to the bitumen flat roofing industry.
The association brings together businesses involved in areas including the manufacture, design, specification, supply and installation of reinforced bitumen membrane systems. Its work is focused on encouraging technical competence, professional standards and collaboration throughout the sector.
For Enviroply Roofing, becoming accredited with an organisation dedicated to this particular area of roofing is a natural fit with the specialist work we already undertake, including:
Lancaster University Management School: Here we installed a combination of Alumasc Derbigum built-up felt systems and Bauder green roof systems for the East Estate Redevelopment.
Green Street Development: Here we installed roofing systems across Blocks B and C, using two specialist Alumasc roofing systems including the Alumasc Derbigum High Performance Roofing System.
Brackley Street, Farnworth Green Development: For the terrace roof area of this development, we installed an Alumasc Derbigum roofing system.
What Does BFRA Accreditation Mean?
Put simply, our accreditation demonstrates that Enviroply Roofing is recognised by an industry body dedicated to bitumen flat roofing.
That is significant because roofing is a specialist construction discipline. A flat roof is not simply a weatherproof covering placed over a building. Its performance depends on the design and specification of the system, the way the different components work together and the quality of the installation.
For our customers, this provides another reason to have confidence in the expertise behind the roofing services we provide.
Why Bitumen Roofing Requires Specialist Knowledge
There are many different approaches to flat roofing, and the most suitable system will depend on the individual building and project requirements.
Bitumen-based roofing systems can provide durable waterproofing when correctly specified and installed. However, roof construction, substrate condition, detailing, junctions, penetrations and drainage can all influence the finished installation, which is why specialist knowledge is so important.
At Enviroply Roofing, our approach is to look at the roofing project as a whole. We consider the building, the existing roof where applicable, the proposed system and the requirements of the client before work begins. Our BFRA accreditation complements this specialist approach.
Our Experience Across Roofing Systems
Although our new BFRA accreditation recognises our involvement in bitumen flat roofing, our expertise extends across a broader range of specialist roofing and waterproofing applications.
Our work includes single-ply roofing and hot-melt waterproofing, alongside other specialist systems. We also work with established manufacturers including Sika, Bauder and Protan.
Having experience across different roofing technologies means that we understand that there is no single solution suitable for every building. Instead, the right system needs to be considered in relation to the project itself.
Our role is to provide specialist knowledge and practical installation experience to help ensure that the chosen roofing solution is appropriate for the building and its intended use.
Continuing to Develop Our Expertise
In the roofing industry, products change, systems develop and expectations around building performance continue to evolve. For specialist contractors like us, keeping knowledge up to date is an important part of remaining competent and competitive. And the BFRA’s focus on technical competence and professional excellence aligns closely with our own approach to continuous improvement.
We are proud to be recognised as part of this specialist community and will continue to build on our knowledge and experience.
Confidence for Our Customers
Ultimately, our customers are looking for roofing contractors who can approach their projects professionally, understand the technical requirements involved and deliver work to a high standard. Our BFRA accreditation adds another layer of reassurance for clients considering Enviroply Roofing for bitumen flat roofing work.
A New Milestone for Enviroply Roofing
Achieving accreditation with the Bitumen Flat Roofing Association represents another milestone for our business. We are proud to have our expertise recognised by an organisation focused specifically on the bitumen flat roofing sector, and we look forward to continuing our involvement with the wider industry.
We will continue to develop our knowledge, support our workforce and approach every project with the same focus on quality, professionalism and attention to detail.
