When it comes to industrial roofing and guttering systems, durability and longevity are key. As time passes, even the most robust gutter systems can fall victim to wear and tear, leading to rust, leaks, and potential damage to the building structure. That’s why proper maintenance, repair, and professional lining solutions are essential to keeping industrial properties in peak condition.
At Bai Roofing, we take pride in delivering reliable and effective roofing and guttering solutions for industrial and agricultural clients. One of our recent projects at the BHGS factory in Worcester is a prime example of our expertise in gutter lining. This case study demonstrates our ability to solve complex gutter issues using Triflex, a trusted and durable lining product.
The Challenge: Rusted and Leaking Gutters
BHGS, a leading horticultural supplier, approached Bai Roofing to address a significant problem with their factory’s guttering system. Over the years, the factory’s gutters had become rusted and prone to leakage, particularly during heavy rainfall. The damage was not only unsightly but also posed a risk to the building’s structure, with water seepage threatening to cause more serious damage if left unchecked.
The rust in the gutters had started to erode the metal, which was leading to leaks that affected the external and internal integrity of the building. Simply patching up the rusted areas would have been a temporary solution, so we proposed a more permanent fix: lining the gutters with Triflex, a system known for its superior sealing properties and durability.
Why Triflex?
Triflex is a waterproofing and lining system designed specifically for industrial applications. It is renowned for its ability to seal and protect surfaces from water damage, making it the ideal choice for lining gutters in industrial settings. As approved installers of Triflex, Bai Roofing has extensive experience using this system, and we were confident it would provide the long-term solution that BHGS needed.
The key benefits of Triflex include:
- Durability: Triflex is designed to withstand extreme weather conditions and protect against future rust and corrosion.
- Waterproofing: Once applied, the Triflex system ensures a fully waterproof seal, preventing any further water ingress.
- Flexible Application: Triflex can be applied to various surfaces, making it suitable for different types of gutter systems.
- Longevity: When installed correctly, Triflex offers long-term protection, reducing the need for future repairs.
The Gutter Lining Process
At Bai Roofing, we understand the importance of minimising disruption to a business’s operations. Our team worked closely with BHGS to ensure that the gutter lining project was completed efficiently and with minimal interruption to their daily activities.
Here’s how we approached the project:
- Initial Assessment:
Our team conducted a thorough inspection of the factory’s guttering system. This allowed us to identify the full extent of the damage and determine the areas most affected by rust and leaks. - Preparation:
Before applying the Triflex lining, we prepared the gutter surfaces by cleaning away any debris, rust, and old sealants. Proper preparation is crucial to ensure the Triflex system adheres effectively to the gutter surfaces. - Applying the Triflex Lining:
Once the gutters were cleaned and prepped, our team began applying the Triflex lining system. The application process involves layering the Triflex system to ensure a complete, waterproof seal. This included reinforcing vulnerable areas with extra layers of Triflex to ensure maximum durability. - Final Inspection:
After the Triflex system was applied and allowed to cure, we carried out a final inspection to ensure the gutters were fully sealed and protected. The results were immediate: no more leaks, no more rust, and a significant extension to the life of the guttering system.
