Why PMS

Other companies offer rubber roofs, but the superiority of the Firestone system installed by PMS, is that every component is designed to last as long as the rubber. There’s little point in having a roof where the rubber has a life expectancy of 50 years, but the adhesives only have 10 years. We use only Firestone adhesives. The E.P.D.M. can be ballasted down with pebbles, mechanically attached or fully adhered to the roof, depending on circumstances.



 

Testimonials:


'After many tries at leakproofing our flat house roof I was encouraged to move from three layer felt to your Firestone rubber roofing.
I have rarely made a better decision in my life. Peace of mind for the first time in thirty years.
We have to thank you for the unstinting help you gave us on the roofing project, fitting in with the joiners, the very thorough job you made and at a most reasonable price especially when compared to other, inferior, materials.
When it pours rain, as it is doing now, it does my heart good to watch it flowing off that wonderful black sheet of rubber.' Denis Harper, Edinburgh.


'We investigated re-roofing our slightly pitched roof with a number of materials. We reckoned that replacing the existing felt with new felt was unsuitable due to relatively low life expectancy. GRP roofing was considered too expensive and not as long lasting as we had thought. Then we discovered EPDM and realised that this material provided the best compromise between cost and life expectancy of the roof. In fact, the cost was comparable to recovering the roof using a traditional felt system.
PMS installed the roof in a very professional and efficient way. The resulting roof has so far proved to be excellent. The clinching point for us was the after sales service. Knowing that materials and work are covered by a decent guarantee (more than the felt roofing companies we approached were prepared to offer) makes me a whole lot happier. All in all, I would have no
hesitation in recommending PMS and EPDM to anyone'. G.Scott, Chirnside.

Professional, friendly, arrived when they said & cleared up behind them. A superb service with an excellent product." G.Walker, Walker Properties, Edinburgh.

I am an Architect with 45 years experience in the Construction Industry, and on a recent flat roofing refurbishment job, I had some particular requirements, over and above the norm. These were that the new specification should not only meet the conventional flat roofing standards in full, but that it should be longer lasting, should involve the minimum of disruption to the living area underneath and it should be capable of providing 'instant' weatherproofing at a time of year when inclement weather had already set in.
 I found these were amply met by the Firestone Single Membrane roof sheeting, which in addition, allowed considerable thermal upgrading while not stressing the weatherproof membrane, thereby offering the prospect of a considerable increased life expectancy of the new system. A. Hunter Cairns FRIAS. MCIOB. MCMI, Cramond

"I am happy to recommend PMS. The service was prompt & efficient & there was none of the dirt or smell associated with usual roofing materials." R.Cowie. Peebles.
