Flat Roofing
The Right Flat Roof for the Job
Flat roofs on extensions, garages and dormers take the worst of the weather. Water sits on them longer than on a pitched roof, so the covering and the details at the edges have to be right.
We fit three flat roof systems, plus lead where it suits, and we'll recommend the one that fits the roof, the budget and how long you want it to last. Most jobs start with stripping the old covering and checking the deck, and we replace rotten boards before the new roof goes on.
- Torch-on felt
- Layers of bitumen felt torched on and finished with a mineral cap sheet. Good value, and it moves with the building without tearing.
- EPDM rubber
- A single sheet of synthetic rubber. Highly durable, and ideal for garages, extensions, porches and balconies.
- GRP fibreglass
- Resin and glass fibre laid over a new deck, setting to a seamless, hard-wearing finish.
- Lead
- For bays, porches and smaller roofs, especially on period homes.

FAQs
Flat Roofing Questions
Can't see your question? Give us a call or send a WhatsApp and we'll help.
Which flat roof lasts longest?
Lead lasts longest, then GRP and EPDM rubber, then felt. The best choice depends on the size of the roof and your budget, and we'll go through it with you.
Can you repair a flat roof rather than replace it?
Often, yes, if the damage is local and the deck is sound. We'll tell you which makes more sense.
Do you work on commercial flat roofs?
Yes. We work on homes and businesses.
