Sector · Roofing
On a 2-storey driveway, inside the kerb-line.
Low-GVW van-mounted CPL builds give residential roofers usable working height (12–14 m) without the footprint of a truck-mounted platform. Outriggers stay within the driveway. The neighbours don’t complain.
Why CPL for roofing
The standards a roofing buyer actually checks.
- 01
Sub-3.5 t GVW
Every CPL van build keeps GVW at or below 3.5 t — meaning a Category B licence covers it. No HGV card needed. No special insurance hoops.
- 02
Driveway-friendly outrigger footprint
Outriggers extend ~1.4 m either side at full deployment — well inside the standard UK driveway width. We can spec a tighter footprint on request for terraced-street work.
- 03
Up-and-over reach to 8 m
The 13.5 m Transit build clears a standard 2-storey eaves height and gives you 4–5 m of usable up-and-over working space on the ridge tiles. The 14.5 m goes further again.
- 04
Sole-trader friendly finance
We work with asset-finance providers that quote on sub-10-unit fleets — not just corporate fleet programmes. Indicative approval in 24–48 hours, runs alongside your build slot.
