What we offer
We currently operate in 12 prisons across Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Herts, Kent, Essex, and Surrey, but have the capacity to deliver our courses to other establishments.
We offer four roofing courses; Pitched, Single Ply flat, Green Roofs and Liquid Plastic. You can read more information on what these include below.
Pitched roofing
Our trainee roofers learn how to install concrete interlocking tiles, plain tiles, and natural slates using industry-standard techniques. This includes traditional sand and cement mortar detail work, as well as up-to-date dry fix systems that are regularly used for all aspects of tiling and slating. With a growing shortage of tilers and slaters, good tradesmen are in high demand, offering excellent career prospects for those who complete our courses.
Single ply flat roofing
Discover the popular and durable single ply roofing system at our roofing training courses. Made from a single layer of PVC membrane, this lightweight material is resistant to wear and tear. With quick installation times, it's also an affordable option. Our trainees learn to install the single-ply membrane seamlessly using hot air welding techniques along with mechanical fastenings or adhesive bonding. As single-ply installers are highly sought after, this offers excellent career prospects in the roofing industry.
Liquid plastic flat roofing
Learn to apply a versatile and innovative one-component liquid waterproofing system with ease at our roofing training courses. Our trainees are taught to use a wet-on-wet, cold applied liquid product that's fully reinforced with a polyester fabric. With fast curing times and no need for heat or power tools, this liquid system offers superior performance and is ideal for new builds or refurbishment projects with complex detailing. It's a popular choice among developers and homeowners, making it a growing sector of the roofing industry with promising employment prospects.
Additional Development
To further advance your development we offer specialised courses to learn additional skills.
Living Roofs
Living Roofs benefit wildlife and ease the load on drainage systems by reducing water run-off. They provide additional insulation and prolong the life of the roof by protecting its surface from the elements.
Solar PV
Solar electricity panels, also known as photovoltaics (PV), capture the sun's energy and convert it into electricity that you can use in your home. By installing solar panels, you can generate your own renewable electricity.
