At Finn Industrial Roofing, we provide expert roofing and cladding maintenance services tailored to your business needs. Our highly trained and experienced team is equipped to handle everything from one-off repairs to ongoing scheduled maintenance contracts. This ensures your roofing system remains in excellent condition, extending its lifespan, maintaining structural performance and preventing costly disruptions to your industrial business.
Clients who choose our comprehensive maintenance programme benefit from a proactive approach that reduces the risk of major issues and avoids disruption to daily operations. These packages include everything from roof inspections and gutter upkeep to full roof replacements when necessary.
All maintenance work is carefully scheduled around your operations to ensure zero downtime. We respect the value of your time and will never schedule roofing works that interfere with your business activities.
Blocked or damaged gutters can do more than just cause overflow. Standing water near foundations can undermine structural integrity. Internal dampness can damage inventory and machinery. Over time, neglected gutters can lead to roof collapse in extreme weather. A small investment in refurbishment or replacement prevents these costly failures (especially in older industrial properties).
"For the past three years Finn roofing has been our only sub contractor that we use. They have under taken many projects for us including the complete remodelling of our largest site. They are professional and reliable and would recommend many times over.
We offer free, no-obligation surveys across Dorset.

Let us help you safeguard your building and your business.
Old or damaged rooflights can cause leaks, safety issues, and poor internal lighting. We remove aged or brittle panels and install high-performance translucent GRP or polycarbonate rooflights that enhance natural light, reduce reliance on artificial lighting, and improve workplace conditions.
We install brand new gutters or refurbish existing systems to ensure proper water management. This includes clearing blockages, realigning sections, and replacing corroded components—preventing overflow, damp, and costly structural damage.
Ideal for flat and low-slope roofs, our single-ply membrane systems provide a seamless, weatherproof surface with optional insulation upgrades. These modern materials offer excellent thermal performance, UV resistance, and long-term durability.
We inspect and repair all associated rainwater systems—such as downpipes, hoppers, and gullies—ensuring rainwater is efficiently channelled away from your building. This helps prevent water ingress, foundation damage, and standing water risks.
Using advanced techniques, we trace the source of active leaks quickly and accurately. Our reactive repair service addresses the problem at its root, often without requiring full system overhauls—keeping disruption to a minimum while restoring watertight integrity.
Single-ply membranes are factory-manufactured roofing sheets made from synthetic polymers like PVC or TPO. These are installed in one layer across flat or low-slope roofs. The material is lightweight, highly weather-resistant, and can be mechanically fastened or fully adhered. When combined with insulation, they significantly improve thermal efficiency and reduce long-term energy costs. Ideal for industrial buildings, they offer a clean, modern alternative to older felt or bitumen systems.

We work around your schedule to survey, repair or install your roof
One of the most common causes of roofing-related issues is deteriorating rooflights. Damaged or discoloured panels can significantly reduce natural light levels and become a source of leaks – creating a darker and less efficient work environment.
With years of industry experience, the team combines high-quality materials with skilled workmanship to transform poorly lit areas into bright, dry and safe spaces. Roof-light replacement is one of the most effective and affordable upgrades you can make to your Dorset business.
A 1500-square-metre industrial unit in Wimborne, Dorset was facing escalating issues due to a failing rooflight system. Cracked, discoloured panels were allowing water ingress and blocking out natural light, leading to increased safety concerns and rising complaints from staff. With the building fully operational, the client needed a fast, non-disruptive solution to restore the roof’s performance without resorting to a costly full replacement.
Client Type. Mid-size industrial warehouse
Location. Wimborne, Dorset
Issue/s. Persistent rooflight leaks and dim interior lighting causing safety concerns and operational inefficiency
Other Factors. Water ingress worsening during rainfall, with increasing complaints from on-site workers
We began with a rapid response survey, arriving on site within 12 hours of the initial enquiry to carry out a full inspection of the roof. The assessment confirmed that 16 roof-lights were severely degraded, allowing water ingress and restricting natural light.
To minimise downtime, we sourced and delivered new high-performance translucent GRP rooflight panels to site within 24 hours. These panels were selected for their improved UV resistance and long-term durability.
Our team then carried out the removal of all 16 damaged roof-lights, replacing them with the new panels and sealing all joins with a robust weatherproof membrane. The work was completed using full fall protection systems, with particular care taken to ensure no disruption to the client’s ongoing operations below.
Throughout the process, we maintained clear communication with the client to coordinate access, scheduling, and progress updates, ensuring a smooth and efficient turnaround from survey to completion.
Industrial environments often rely on daylight for safety, productivity and energy savings. Rooflights, typically made from GRP or polycarbonate, allow natural light to flood interior workspaces. Over time, UV exposure degrades these panels, reducing their transparency and structural integrity. Replacing them improves visibility, reduces the need for artificial lighting and can lead to measurable improvements in worker satisfaction and energy efficiency.
We provide roof surveys with detailed reports, highlighting any current or potential issues. We use the latest drone technology to do this, with all operators fully trained and experienced in latest software and 3d imaging options. Drone surveys are now the preferred solution for planned maintenance, insurance claims or budgeting future works.
Build-up of moss, algae and other roofing debris can accelerate roof deterioration. Our moss cleaning and removal services not only improve drainage, but also the visual appeal of your building (while protecting roofing materials).
From dented or loose panels to faded finishes, the team can restore the performance and look of metal cladding through targeted repairs and protective re-coating systems. Talk to us about our specialised cladding repair services and free site visit today!
We can install and upgrade fire protection systems in compliance with building regulations. Helping you meet Dorset fire safety standards and reduce fire risk to your industrial business.
Looking to improve daylighting in dark or high-use areas? We can design and install skylight systems to enhance energy efficiency and ambience. We custom fit a roof lighting solution that transforms your space and cuts the need for expensive roof replacements.
Scheduled inspections and minor repairs help avoid major disruptions. Our PPM contracts are tailored to your site, roofing type, and operational needs – reducing long-term costs and extending roof life.
PPM contracts are scheduled service agreements designed to keep roofing systems in peak condition. They typically include routine inspections, minor repairs, gutter clearance, and condition reporting. Businesses benefit by spreading maintenance costs over time, avoiding emergency repair fees, and extending roof lifespan. PPM is especially valuable for large or multi-site industrial portfolios with complex roofing needs.
At Finn Industrial Roofing, we utilise drone technology to conduct rapid and accurate assessments of industrial roofing systems across Dorset. Traditional inspections often require scaffolding, cherry pickers or manual access. All of which add time, cost and safety problems.Â
Safe Access to Difficult Areas
Our drones reach high or hazardous zones without needing access platforms, especially valuable for large or fragile roofs.
High-Resolution Imaging & Video
We capture detailed photographs and real-time footage, identifying issues such as pooling, blistering, joint separation, and material fatigue, without stepping foot on the roof.
Thermal Imaging Available
Equipped with infrared cameras, our drones detect hidden leaks or insulation failures by capturing heat loss patterns across the surface.
Faster Turnaround, Lower Costs
Drone surveys dramatically cut inspection time, meaning less disruption and quicker diagnostics. You also save on access equipment costs.
3D Mapping & Digital Reporting
Using advanced software, we generate 3D models of your roof structure with annotated observations and actionable repair recommendations. Ideal for planning maintenance or insurance documentation.
Drone surveys are now a core part of our condition reports and preventative maintenance programmes. Whether you’re managing a distribution centre, factory, or warehouse, our aerial inspections provide the clarity and confidence you need – with zero disruption to your work place.
Expert assistance with all commercial, temporary and industrial roofing works including all types of maintenance, repair and installation.
