Roofs and facades are the main protection of your home, keeping them in good condition is essential for the safeguard of the entire structure, giving advantages in terms of stability and safety. Beyond doing maintenance work, for older buildings a good strategy is to work on the insulation to save on energy costs.
T.P. Edile has been working on the exterior of homes in Bologna for 25 years! We do structural reinforcements, roof replacements, terrace and balcony waterproofing, remediation of mouldy walls as well as full restorations of facades, shadowing systems, thermal acoustic and external wall insulation.

We also do maintenance and renovations to repair waterproofing and structures, removal and replacement of roof tiles, as well as sheet metal work and gutter replacement.
Does your old terrace create problems with the neighbours? Does the ruined flooring spoil the pleasure of your outdoor space?

Most old buildings were not built to be earthquake resistant and the slab is subject to vibrations or excessive deformation making it a weak point that needs to be addressed.
Once assessment has been carried out, the mechanical capacity of the beams (determined by an expert) and the live loads, for consolidating the attic slab our procedure consists in:
