Flat Roofs
For smaller buildings and structures – e.g. garages, extensions, balconies – a flat roof is a cost-effective and long-lasting solution. Flat roofing is especially suitable for areas with high winds, and in situations where people will need regular access to the roof area.
We specialise in three types of flat roof:
Bitumen Felt
Often used for industrial buildings, strong and hard-wearing bitumen felt works just as well for domestic roofs. Low cost compared to the other options, bitumen felt can be used for flat roofs of any size and gives a clean finish that lasts.
GRP Fibreglass
Strong, lightweight and hard-wearing, a GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) fibreglass roof adds a touch of style to your home. A versatile material with a flexible and attractive finish, GRP fibreglass is resistant to time, weather and vandalism, and is one of the few truly jointless flat roof materials.
EPDM Rubber
The most widely-used flat roof material, EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomers) rubber is a tried and tested solution for flat roofing. It is usually installed in one piece, so no joins. It’s a high-density synthetic rubber that is lightweight, flexible and hard-wearing with excellent weathering properties. It is also flame retardant and water resistant.

Replace all gutters/facias/soffits and most downpipes
David was punctual, polite and courteous throughout and was always keen to ensure I was happy with progress and with the quality of the work. In addition to replacing the guttering, etc., the scope was expanded to include painting all external windows, gables and the front door. Mine is an older property and as is always the way, once work started it became clear there a number of issues with the roof that needed to be addressed, such as a patch of woodworm in the rafter ends, missing or broken slates and the sound advice that the ridge tiles on the roof needed to be re-seated. David’s quotes to carry out the additional work were more than fair and the work was done extremely well. The team cleared up at the end of each day and very thoroughly at the end of the job. I’m very pleased with the end result.
