Revolutionising Roofing: The Innovative WARMdeck Flat Roof System

A new Flat Roof system that has multiple applications, is well engineered and extremely fast to install.

Designed to integrate seamlessly into Prefix’s core roofing product offering and following the same ‘best-in-class’ approach that runs through all its products, the WARMdeck is a ‘must have’ product for those installing flat rooflights and lanterns.

Made from a lightweight, composite engineered timber structure, WARMdeck offers incredible strength, rigidity and continues Prefix’s commitment to its  ‘true warm-roof’ ethos, ensuring superior thermal performance.

Chris Baron, director at Prefix, commented; ‘When developing this new product, our attention to detail ensures that fitters spend less time measuring and cutting, allowing them to focus on what matters most on site: building. One of our main focuses when developing a new product, is ensuring the installation process is as simple, and quick as possible. In today’s fast-paced construction landscape, efficiency and quality are paramount’

 

The timber kit comes pre-cut to size, eliminating the guesswork and minimizing waste onsite, ensuring it fits together seamlessly. Designed with fewer components than competitor systems, this streamlines the installation process and reducing the chances of misplacing parts.

Wherever possible, Prefix offer pre-built cassettes that drastically reduce installation times. By minimising the number of assembly steps on-site, you can have your project up and running in record time.

When using a flat roof light or lantern, the insulated kerb is pre-assembled for convenience, this thoughtful design is another example of the off-site construction principles that speeds up the installation process.

The WARMdeck can be retrofitted onto existing brickwork and frames seamlessly. This adaptability opens-up a world of possibilities for renovations and extensions, making it easier to remodel and enhance existing structures.

A choice of fascia, soffit, and gutter options in white, grey, or black. And for a personalised touch, we also offer upgrades to any RAL colour upon request, allowing you to create a truly unique look. There is also the option to add the ornate aluminium Orangery Gutter Shroud.

Another unique WARMdeck design option allows for cantilevered soffit overhangs of up to 1 meter (subject to survey) adding an elegant architectural touch to your project while providing additional shading and shelter.

The WARMdeck kits meet all necessary building control standards, ensuring that your construction project adheres to the highest safety and quality regulations.

Boasting a superior thermal performance rating of 0.12 W/m²k, certified by BRE, the exceptional insulative properties help keep building comfortable all year-round, and significantly reducing energy costs.

Each roof can be supplied with full structural calculations tailored to your postcode ensuring compliance with local building regulations, giving you confidence in the integrity and safety of your construction. Prefix even carefully consider the logistics with the WARMdeck being delivered direct to your site, saving you time and hassle.
