From pre-project design advice right through to completion, guarantees and aftercare, our experienced team will guide you through each stage of any project with an all-round support service.

1. Pre-project consultation
Technical calculations following a pre-project consultation. This includes wind load, U-value, condensation risk, weight load, and drainage calculations which are compliant to current UK Building Regulations.
CAD detailing is also part of our specification service and all our products are listed in BIM objects available to download.
2. Survey
For refurbishment projects, an exhaustive assessment of the roof surface and sub-layers, carried out by our skilled and experienced Area Business Managers, will give you a thorough analysis concerning the condition of your roof.
A full and comprehensive survey which would include: Visual and physical inspections, detailed defects analysis, a comprehensive report, and photographic records.
3. Design
IKO’s technical expertise will ensure you have a compliant and efficiently designed roofing system.
From pre-project design advice right through to completion and guarantees, our experienced team will guide you through each stage of any project. Whether you’re looking to design a carbon-neutral construction, or need clarification on the latest UK Building Regulations, we can help.
4. Solution
The solution that will be presented comes from combining the initial three stages within our process (consultation, survey and design).
The final IKO specification document includes: Specification criteria, points of contracts, condition survey, specification summary, specification build-ups, schedule of materials, installation guidance, guarantee offer, and design details.
5. Installation
IKO’s high-performance roofing systems are only ever installed by vetted and approved IKO contractors.
With comprehensive selection and training criteria and nationwide network coverage, you can be confident that, whatever location your project is situated in, your installation will be managed to the highest possible standards.
6. Inspection
An IKO roofing solution is an investment that can deliver many years of faultless service. That kind of long-term commitment from you deserves an equally long-term commitment from us.
A framework of inspection and maintenance visits is available throughout any project from our network of approved IKO contractors and IKO technical services.
7. Guarantee
It’s important that any construction work comes with a guarantee and insurance policies for the peace of mind of all stakeholders.
However, not all guarantees offer the same cover, varying drastically between contractor and manufacturer. IKO can offer a comprehensive range of single point and linked guarantees to suit the requirements of any project.
8. Aftercare
The final stage within the IKO 8 steps approach to roofing success is the aftercare of your roof.
As set out in industry guidelines and BS6229, IKO can provide guidance and support in the aftercare that your roof requires. Providing not only the requirements for a sustainable service plan, but the means to carry this out and making sure that CDM/HSE requirements are met.
