Superfoil Contractors in Liverpool

How we work in Liverpool

Liverpool's proximity to the Irish Sea and its generally damp maritime climate mean that condensation control matters more here than almost anywhere else we work. A foil install that breaks the vapour control layer or compresses the product past its rated air gap will develop damp problems within a couple of winters in an L-postcode loft — we've been called in to fix other people's installs for exactly this reason. Our method statement for Liverpool jobs always specifies sealed laps with approved tape, maintained cold-side ventilation, and where necessary additional ridge or tile vents to keep the roof void breathing correctly. We also do a steady stream of work on the semi-industrial flat roofs around the docks and the Baltic Triangle, where SFTV and bubble-foil combinations are specified under EPDM single-ply coverings.

What we install

On a typical Liverpool job, we survey the roof and recommend the specific SuperFOIL product that best matches the application. SF19+ is our workhorse between-rafters product for retrofit lofts — 11 layers in a slim flexible roll that fits between shallow Victorian rafters without losing headroom. SF40 is specified where a higher U-value is needed or where the roof element is the main line of thermal defence — 37 layers, 12 reflective foils, currently the top of the SuperFOIL range. SFNC is our non-combustible variant for flats, commercial buildings and any application where fire rating drives the specification. Each product carries the full manufacturer guarantee and our own 10-year workmanship warranty.

Areas and neighbourhoods we cover

Our Liverpool crew regularly works across Aigburth, Allerton, Mossley Hill, Woolton, Childwall, Crosby and West Derby, as well as the surrounding villages and towns inside the L1, L3, L8, L15, L17, L18, L22, L24 and the broader L-postcode area postcode footprint. If you're outside these areas, please phone — we will almost always travel anywhere in Merseyside and the immediately surrounding counties for a decent-sized job.

Why a specialist matters

A general roofer can put a roll of foil between rafters in an hour. A properly-trained Superfoil contractor will take longer — because we measure and set the air gaps, tape every lap with approved foil tape, preserve the cold-side ventilation, protect the vapour control layer at every service penetration, and hand you compliance paperwork at the end. The difference doesn't show on day one, but it absolutely shows a couple of winters in — and it's the difference between a foil install that quietly performs for 50 years and one that causes condensation problems within 24 months.

Free surveys, written quotes, fixed prices

Every Liverpool job starts with a free, no-obligation site survey. We look in the loft, check the roof externally, measure the rafter depth, discuss what you're trying to achieve, and follow up within 48 hours with a written, itemised quote fixed for 60 days. There is no pressure, no call centre, and no commission-hungry salesperson. If foil isn't the right answer for your specific property, we'll tell you.
