Flat Roofing for Property & Block Management
Managing agents and block managers do not need a roofer who just turns up. They need reports that can be forwarded, works that can be evidenced, and roofs that stop generating emergencies. That is how Pluvian Roofing is set up to work.

Reporting you can forward, not translate
Every survey, maintenance visit and repair ends in a written report with photographs: what was found, what it means, what was done, what to plan for. It is written for the people you answer to, so it can go straight to directors, freeholders or leaseholders without a covering explanation. Over time those reports become the documented history of each roof, which is exactly what you want on file when questions come.
Planned works instead of reactive chaos
Reactive roofing is the most expensive kind: emergency access, wet interiors, upset residents and no time to compare options. A planned maintenance programme turns most of that into scheduled visits: outlets cleared, details checked, small faults fixed while they are small, and records kept that support manufacturer guarantee compliance across the portfolio.
Major works and Section 20, handled with paperwork in mind
Where refurbishment of a leasehold block is likely to trigger Section 20 consultation, the process runs on documents: specifications, estimates and clear scopes leaseholders can understand. Our condition surveys and written specifications are produced with that in mind. General information, not legal advice; your agent or solicitor leads the consultation itself.
Where to start
The commercial hub covers how we work on occupied buildings generally. For a specific block or portfolio, the first step is always the same: a condition survey of the roofs you know least about.

Can you look after roofs across several buildings?
Yes, that is what the survey-first process is for. Each roof gets its own condition survey and report, and the portfolio gets a combined picture: which roofs need work now, which need watching, and which just need maintenance. Planned programmes are then priced per roof and portfolio.
What do you provide that I can forward to leaseholders?
Written, photographed reports in plain English: what was found, what it means, what was done and what is recommended. They are written to be forwarded as they are, so you are not translating roofing jargon into an email at nine at night.
How does roof work interact with Section 20 consultation?
Where major works to a leasehold block are likely to pass the consultation cost thresholds, Section 20 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 generally requires a formal consultation process with leaseholders. We support that with clear written specifications and reports you can attach to notices. This is general information, not legal advice; your managing agent or solicitor leads the process.
Can planned maintenance replace reactive call-outs?
Largely, yes. Most emergency leaks are the end of a story that started years earlier with a blocked outlet or a cracked detail. A planned maintenance programme catches those early on a schedule, which means fewer emergencies, fewer complaints from residents and a budget you set rather than one that happens to you.
What is the first step for a block I have just taken on?
A roof condition survey. It records the roof as found, independent of whoever worked on it before, and gives you defects, priorities and budget guidance in writing. From there you can decide between repairs, a maintenance programme or planning for refurbishment.
Got a block with a roof you cannot vouch for?
Tell us about the building and we will start with the survey, not the sales pitch.
