Temporary Roof Scaffolding Solutions by Jaku Scaffolding
When you’re facing unpredictable weather or need to protect sensitive building works, a temporary roof can make all the difference. At Jaku Scaffolding, we specialise in delivering expertly designed temporary roof scaffolding systems that keep your projects moving — rain or shine. From small residential renovations to large-scale commercial refurbishments, our team ensures your site stays secure, dry, and compliant at all times.
What is a Temporary Roof?
A temporary roof is a protective cover erected over buildings or specific work areas during construction, renovation, or repair projects. It shields your site from rain, wind, snow, and dust, preventing weather delays and helping maintain a safe working environment. Whether your roof is compromised during works or you’re planning a loft conversion, a temporary roof provides reliable shelter without halting progress.
Applications of Temporary Roofs
At Jaku Scaffolding, we provide temporary roofing solutions for diverse situations, including:
- Refurbishment or renovation projects
- Emergency protection after fire or storm damage
- Open roof structures during loft conversions
- Urgent protection needs for compromised roofs
- Heritage and listed building preservation
We understand that each project has unique demands, so we tailor every temporary roof installation to the specific size, shape, and constraints of your building.
Our Temporary Roof Systems
We offer a range of systems to suit varying requirements, each chosen for strength, durability, and adaptability:
Shrink Wrap Roofing
Shrink wrap creates a tight, weatherproof seal over irregular or complex structures. This versatile plastic film is heat-shrunk into place, forming a durable, seamless barrier against the elements. It’s ideal for projects requiring a neat appearance, fast installation, and maximum flexibility.
Monarflex Sheeting
Highly robust and tear-resistant, Monarflex sheeting is perfect for long-term protection. It withstands harsh weather and offers excellent UV stability. Monarflex sheeting is flame-retardant, enhancing site safety while keeping your project secure from the elements.
Corrugated Roofing Systems
Corrugated sheets — often made from steel or durable plastics — deliver solid, heavy-duty protection, making them suitable for larger commercial or industrial sites. These roofs are exceptionally strong, offering reliable performance even in challenging weather conditions.
Cassette and Haki Systems
For more complex structures, we provide cassette roofs and Haki systems. These engineered solutions offer high load-bearing capacity and quick assembly, ensuring minimal disruption to your project’s timeline.
Temporary Roof Installation Process
Installing a temporary roof involves several critical steps:
Scaffold Erection
We build a strong, stable scaffold frame tailored to support the weight and dimensions of the chosen roof system.
Roof Installation
Roofing materials are securely installed, whether shrink wrap sheeting, corrugated panels, or a modular cassette system.
Inspections and Adjustments
We perform rigorous checks to ensure everything is weatherproof, safe, and compliant with regulations.
Dismantling
When the project is complete, we carefully dismantle the temporary roof and scaffolding in a safe, controlled process, leaving your site clean and clear.
Commitment to Safety and Compliance
Safety is central to everything we do. Our team works in line with:
BS 5975 standards for temporary works
NASC guidelines for safe scaffolding practices
Strict health and safety protocols on every site
We’re fully accredited, ensuring your project meets legal requirements and the highest industry standards.
Insurance
In addition, Jaku Scaffolding is fully insured with £10 million public liability cover, providing you with complete peace of mind and financial protection throughout your project.
