Valley Rafter Repairs Darvel

Client Background: SMPS Building & Preservation recently undertook a significant project in Darvel, Ayrshire, focusing on valley rafter repairs for a valued client. The client, a homeowner in Darvel, had noticed signs of water damage and deterioration in the roof structure, particularly around the valley rafters. Concerned about the structural integrity of their home, they sought out SMPS Building & Preservation for their expertise in building preservation and restoration.

Client’s Challenge: Upon inspection, it was evident that the valley rafters, crucial components of the roof structure responsible for directing rainwater away from the roof, were compromised. Years of exposure to harsh weather conditions, coupled with poor maintenance, had led to rot, decay, and structural weakness in the valley rafters.

This included the application of specialised sealants and coatings to prevent water ingress and prolong the lifespan of the roof structure.
4. Quality Assurance: Throughout the repair process, our team maintained stringent quality assurance measures to ensure that the work met the highest standards of craftsmanship and durability. Regular inspections and testing were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the repairs and guarantee long-term performance.
