Temporary Roofs
& Tin Hats

NJW Scaffolding

Temporary roofs and tin hats are an essential part of many construction and renovation projects. 

They provide a protective covering against adverse weather conditions, ensuring that work can continue uninterrupted regardless of the elements. This is particularly crucial in the UK, where unpredictable weather can cause significant delays to construction timelines.

These structures are typically erected using scaffolding tubes, scaffold beams, and fittings, creating a robust framework. Scaffold boards are then used to create working platforms, providing safe and secure access for workers. The roof section is covered with sheeting, with galvanised CI sheets (also known as corrugated iron sheeting) being the most commonly used material. These sheets are overlapped and secured to the framework using wriggly fittings, ensuring a watertight seal.

What are the Benefits of Using Temporary Roofs & Tin Hats?

One of the main benefits of using a temporary roof or tin hat is the creation of a controlled environment for trades or construction companies. This generally provides a dry working area, which is essential for many construction tasks. Some clients may also require specific temperature management within the covered area, which can be achieved with the use of a temporary roof.

The use of protective sheeting around the outside of the structure ensures that any rainwater falls down the sheeting and not into the covered area. This is particularly important when working on projects such as loft conversions or roof repairs, where the interior of the building needs to be protected from water damage.

The Versatility of Temporary Roofs & Tin Hats

Temporary roofs and tin hats are incredibly versatile and can be used on a wide range of projects. From houses and warehouses to churches and other large buildings, these structures provide essential protection against the elements. They are also commonly used during asbestos removal projects, providing a sealed environment to prevent the spread of harmful fibres.

The size and design of the temporary roof or tin hat can be tailored to the specific requirements of the project. Whether you need a small covering for a residential property or a large structure to cover a commercial building, a temporary roof can be designed to meet your needs.
