    Temporary roofing & weather protection in Cornwall & Devon

    Fully sheeted temporary roof systems keeping works watertight and on programme through re-roofs, structural repairs and heritage projects across Cornwall and Devon.

    What the service involves

    A temporary roof gives your trades a dry, sheltered platform to work under while the permanent roof is off or being replaced — spanning aluminium or steel beams supported off a scaffold structure and covered with shrink-wrap, corrugated sheeting or heavy-duty tarpaulin, depending on span, exposure and duration. We design each system to the specific building, whether that is a full-perimeter scaffold with a mono-pitch temporary roof over a domestic re-roof, a duo-pitch cassette system over a listed chapel undergoing structural repair, or a bespoke encapsulation for asbestos removal, fire damage or storm-damage response.

    Why the Tubix approach fits temporary roofing work

    Programme protection is the whole point of a temporary roof. We hold our own investment in modular beam systems, sheeting and edge kit and continue to expand that inventory, so we can mobilise quickly on planned re-roofs and respond fast on emergency weather cover. Designs are TG20:21 or bespoke where geometry demands, ties and wind-loading are calculated for the exposed Cornwall and Devon coast, and every erection is CISRS-supervised with weekly statutory inspections through the hire. Handover packs include the design drawing, RAMS, ties log and inspection photos — audit-ready for main contractors, heritage clients and insurers alike.

    Typical Cornwall & Devon use case

    A structural repair to the roof of a grade II listed church on the Devon border needs the interior kept dry for a six-month programme. We design and erect a full independent scaffold with a duo-pitch temporary roof spanning the nave, sheeted for the winter, tied to a wind-loading calculation, and hand over to the specialist contractor with a full paperwork pack — ready for the conservation officer, insurer and diocesan surveyor.
