Areco
Areco was founded in the mid 1960s by former roofing contractors Ralph Stride and Charlie Jones. Ralph and Charlie identified a need for a quicker, neater alternative to traditional welted drips and Aluminium Trim was born. The business grew quickly and soon they were selling trim by the ton to well known manufacturers and contractors of the day.

Soon associated products such as breather vents and roof drains followed and in the early 1990s our renowned Glasstrim GRP Trim brand was launched. Glasstrim is still our best selling line today. Upon Ralph's retirement in 1994, the business was sold to current owners, the family run Watts Clift Holdings Ltd, who have made consistent investment in the Company.

Glasstrim is a glass reinforced polyester roof edge trim, designed to provide a weatherproof, decorative finish and strong clean lines to the roof edge. It also has a high glass fibre content giving a low coefficient of thermal expansion, solving the problem of splitting and leaks at the roof edge.
A range of aluminium roof edge trim products designed to give a professional finish to built up felt flat roofs. Areco are able to manufacture twice bent trims to customer specification for most roofing applications. Nutrim should be fixed with corrosion resistant fixings suitable for the substrate at no more than 300mm (12) centres with the ends of each length firmly secured.
The area that can be effectively ventilated by a "Mega-Vent" is determined by the materials used in the construction of the roof. Moisture is present in most roofs. A newly screeded concrete deck takes a long time to dry out thoroughly and when the deck is waterproofed, residual moisture from the screeded concrete is trapped with no means of escape.

Dog toffee.
Sick and tired of having to put our own work off due to damaged deliveries of roofing materials. If the problem is your courier, change the courier.
Usually deal with Keiran who is great when your placing an order however hides when there's an issue that needs addressing.
