Seal a leaking commercial roof for a fraction of replacement cost. Complete GacoFlex silicone system from £15.50/m² fully installed — surveyed, coated and warranted by one team, without closing the building.
If your Cullompton office, retail or mixed-use building has a flat or low-slope roof that leaks, the economics rarely favour a strip-and-recover. Gaco S42 silicone overcoats the existing build-up in a single seamless membrane - typically saving 50–70% against replacement.
The specification comes from Duratite, the material is supplied by Duratite, and the application is carried out by manufacturer-trained approved contractors working in Cullompton - finished under a 20-year manufacturer-backed product warranty.
A Cullompton survey covers every Cullompton postcode, with the balance of Devon on the same rota.
Real completed GacoFlex silicone installs by the Duratite approved-installer network — the same system we specify in Cullompton.
A tired profiled metal roof coated in place with Gaco S42 — no tear-off, no closure days, every seam, lap and fixing sealed under one continuous membrane. Real drone photography of a completed UK install.
Ask one question first: is it the deck or the surface? A structurally failed deck needs replacing. A worn surface over a sound deck is a coating job, done with no tear-off and the building open. The Cullompton survey answers that before you commit to anything.
Leaks at laps, fixings or rooflights — but the deck still feels solid underfoot
Corroding or chalking metal sheets, or weathered asbestos cement
Ponding water that sits for days after rain
Replacement quotes that blow the maintenance budget
Tenants in occupation who cannot be decanted while the roof comes off
A complete GacoFlex silicone roof coating system in Cullompton typically costs £15.50 to £35 per m² fully installed — one figure covering materials and professional application. Roof condition, access and warranty length set where you land in the range.
| Complete system, fully installed | Typical installed price | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|
| GacoFlex system — 10-year specification | £15.50–£20 / m² installed | Sound roofs needing renewed waterproofing on a tighter budget |
| GacoFlex system — 20-year specification | £20–£25 / m² installed | Full film build for the 20-year manufacturer-backed warranty |
| GacoFlex system — complex roofs | £25–£35 / m² installed | Heavy preparation, chronic ponding, extensive seam & detail work |
| Full roof replacement (for comparison) | £80–£150+ / m² | End-of-life decks only — coating avoids this cost in most cases |
One system, one price. Every component below is part of the installed figure — none of them is ever priced separately.
A replacement pays twice for the same roof: stripping and disposing of the old one, then rebuilding a new one over an exposed deck. A coating skips both — the existing roof becomes the substrate, so you only pay for the new waterproofing layer and the labour to apply it.
That is also why the programme is measured in days rather than weeks, with no weather-exposed deck at any point.
Across 1,000+ UK commercial projects this system has renewed the waterproofing without removing the roof underneath, on asbestos cement, corroding profiled metal and ponding flat roofs alike.
The same roof, two very different routes. This is the comparison every Cullompton building owner should see before signing a re-roof order.
| What it means for you | GacoFlex coating system | Full roof replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Typical cost | £15.50–£35 / m² fully installed | £80–£150+ / m² |
| Time on site | Days — weekend phasing routine | Weeks of strip-off and rebuild |
| Disruption below the roof | None — the building stays live | Tenant disruption, decant costs and void risk |
| Waste to landfill | None — the existing roof stays put | The entire old roof, skipped and tipped |
| Weather exposure during works | Rain-resistant within hours | Open deck between strip and re-sheet |
| Warranty | 20-year manufacturer-backed product warranty | Varies by system and installer |
| When it’s the right call | Sound deck, worn-out surface — most roofs we survey | Genuinely end-of-life decks and structures |
Refurbish commercial flat roofs across Cullompton — offices, retail, mixed-use estate — without business disruption. Gaco S42 silicone seals flat and low-slope roofs in a single coat, backed by a 20-year manufacturer-backed product warranty.
Days on site, not weeks. The coating is applied cold straight over the existing covering, so there are no skips in the yard, no closure days and no decant.
Backed directly by Gaco / Amrize on every approved-applicator install, and transferable if the building is sold.
Class A fire rating, solar reflectance up to 0.91, independently lab-tested for adhesion, elongation and UV stability.
Manufacturer-trained installers covering every Cullompton postcode. One team specs, supplies and supervises — a single point of contact end-to-end.
Four steps from first call to 20-year warranty. Most Cullompton roofs are surveyed within 2–5 working days and coated in days, not weeks.
A measured walk-over of your Cullompton roof with photographic condition record — core moisture checks where needed.
Same-week quotation with measured areas, system build-up (S42 or SF42), warranty term and programme.
Clean, repair and prime, then cold-apply the silicone by spray, brush or roller. No hot works, rain-resistant within hours.
Final inspection, then the 20-year manufacturer-backed product warranty is issued on completion.
The same stages every GacoFlex install goes through — real UK roofs, no renders and no stock photography.
Failed asphalt, ponding water and leaking details — the classic candidate roof. If the deck is sound, this is exactly the roof a coating rescues.
Cleaned, repaired and detailed first — seams, laps and fixings banded in silicone before any field coat goes on. This is the detail work the 20-year warranty depends on.
The finished S42 membrane — one seamless, ponding-water-rated surface, self-terminating around lanterns and upstands, with the manufacturer-backed warranty issued on completion.
