ROOFING, WATERPROOFING, AND SIDING FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE, SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGS
ROOFING, WATERPROOFING, AND SIDING FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE, SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGS
At Axima, we know that a building’s longevity begins with a sound and high-performance building envelope.
It protects your infrastructure from the elements and water infiltration. Our roofing, waterproofing, and siding solutions are designed to provide long-lasting durability, regardless of the type of building or the complexity of the project. This durability is based on high-quality materials, proven techniques, and the expertise of our teams, who work with precision on projects ranging from large-scale architectural complexes to new construction and renovation.
But a building envelope must also be energy-efficient. Energy efficiency is at the heart of our projects. We incorporate innovative solutions to improve thermal and acoustic insulation, reduce energy loss, and optimize indoor comfort. Our work helps control energy consumption and reduce the carbon footprint through methods such as the integration of solar panels or the creation of green roofs. Each project is designed to combine aesthetics, efficiency, and sustainability to meet the requirements of professionals and local governments.
We work on both new construction and renovation projects with a clear goal: to deliver robust, elegant buildings that meet architectural standards and are energy-efficient—today and for years to come.
Our Expertise in Roofing and Waterproofing
A roof is much more than just a protective element—it is the first line of defense against the elements and is key to your building’s longevity and energy efficiency. Our solutions for industrial roofing and waterproofing solutions adapt to all substrates—steel, wood, and concrete. We also carry out traditional roofing projects—including zinc, slate, and tile roofs—to meet the widest range of architectural requirements.
Thanks to our expertise, we are skilled in installing bituminous or synthetic membranes and offer more environmentally friendly options, such as integrating photovoltaic panels or creating green roofs to combine aesthetics with energy efficiency.
Each project is designed to go beyond simple waterproofing: we also address airtightness and thermal insulation to ensure lasting comfort and reduced energy consumption.
Our Expertise in Insulated and Aesthetic Siding
Beyond just cladding, the cladding combines performance and design to give your building a unique signature and contributes to the building’s overall energy efficiency. Our teams install cladding made of steel, aluminum, stainless steel, composite panels, terracotta, polycarbonate, and wood, for both new construction and renovation projects.
This approach allows you to optimize indoor comfort and sustainably reduce your operating costs, while protecting and enhancing your facades, giving your building a strong architectural identity.
Support and Services at the Heart of Our Commitment
Because a building must remain in good working order throughout its lifespan, we have developed a comprehensive range of maintenance, repair, and emergency services. Our teams respond quickly to repair a roof leak, replace damaged siding, or perform preventive inspections.
Using modern tools such as drone inspections, we anticipate risks and offer tailored solutions to extend the lifespan of your structures.
In-house and certified expertise
Our strength lies first and foremost in our team of men and women, who are experts in their fields. Every project benefits from the expertise of passionate and highly qualified professionals (roofers, siding installers, waterproofers) capable of tackling the most complex technical challenges.
An in-house design office, equipped with 3D tools and BIM modeling, designs and develops your projects with precision and innovation.
Our project managers, site supervisors, and skilled tradespeople ensure rigorous oversight and flawless execution, guaranteeing quality at every stage.
This commitment is recognized by our QUALIBAT certifications for roofing, waterproofing, and siding, with an energy efficiency designation (RGE), a mark of performance and reliability.
From Design to Maintenance
We support you at every stage of a building’s life cycle, regardless of the scope of your project.
From design to completion, whether for new construction or renovation, we handle large-scale projects—major architectural projects, sports complexes, commercial buildings—as well as more targeted work, such as roof renovation or cladding repair.
Our expertise also covers regular maintenance, repairs, emergency services, and preventive inspections.
This versatility allows us to guarantee the performance and durability of your buildings, both today and tomorrow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a building envelope, and why is it essential?
The building envelope encompasses all the elements that protect and insulate your building: roofing, waterproofing, and siding. It plays a fundamental role in the building’s structural integrity and energy efficiency. A well-designed building envelope ensures the longevity of the structure, limits water infiltration, and optimizes thermal and acoustic comfort.
It also helps reduce energy consumption and enhances the building’s aesthetic appeal, making it a key driver for energy-efficient renovation and sustainability.
What is the difference between industrial roofing and traditional roofing?
Industrial roofing is ideal for large commercial or industrial buildings. It uses technical solutions such as steel decking, bituminous or synthetic membranes, which are suited to long spans and specific structural requirements.
Traditional roofing, on the other hand, favors materials such as zinc, slate, or tiles for architectural or historic preservation projects. It adds an aesthetic dimension and blends seamlessly with regional architectural styles, while ensuring waterproofing and durability.
How can I improve my building’s energy efficiency?
To improve energy efficiency, it is essential to minimize heat loss. Our exterior thermal insulation solutions, combined with insulated cladding systems, help enhance the building’s overall performance.
We also offer innovative solutions such as green roofs, which improve insulation and thermal regulation, and the integration of photovoltaic panels to generate renewable energy. These choices help reduce your energy consumption and carbon footprint, while adding value to your real estate assets.
Can solar panels be installed on an existing roof?
Yes, but it is essential to ensure the roof is completely watertight before any solar installation. A poorly protected roof can lead to leaks and compromise your building’s energy efficiency.
Our teams can perform a comprehensive assessment of structures and roofs to bring them up to code before installing solar panels. This approach ensures the longevity of your system and the profitability of your investment.
Do you perform energy-efficient renovations?
Yes, we perform energy-efficient renovations on roofs, waterproofing, and exterior cladding. These projects allow you to renovate your facades and roofs, improve their insulation, and thereby reduce your energy consumption.
They are particularly well-suited for older or energy-inefficient buildings. By renovating the building envelope, you not only improve thermal performance but also enhance the aesthetics and value of your building.
Do you offer pre-construction inspections?
Absolutely. We perform inspections of siding and roofing, as well as assessments of waterproofing systems (which can be conducted using drones). These inspections help identify weak points, prevent water infiltration, and enable us to plan targeted repairs—whether short- or long-term—to ensure the longevity of your structures.
Do you handle both small jobs and large projects?
Yes, we have expertise in all types of construction and renovation projects.
We work on all types of structures, whether new construction or renovation. Our teams carry out large-scale projects such as sports complexes, commercial buildings, schools, police stations, train stations, religious buildings, hospitals, and much more.
In addition, our specialized teams provide rapid response services for leak detection and repair, as well as partial replacement of structures, ensuring the longevity and performance of your infrastructure. This versatility is a major asset that allows us to meet all your needs with the same high standards of quality.
Do you handle building maintenance?
We offer preventive and corrective maintenance contracts to extend the lifespan of your facilities. Our teams respond quickly to urgent repairs, leak detection, or improvement projects. Regular maintenance helps prevent damage.
