Benefits of modern flat roofing

Durable

20-30 year lifespans with proper installation.

Low maintenance

Minimal upkeep compared to older systems.

Repairable

Most systems can be patched without full replacement.

Repair or Replace?

Repair vs replacement

Not every flat roof needs replacing. If the damage is localised a split, a failed joint, or blistering in one area a targeted repair can extend the roof's life. If the membrane is failing across the whole surface, replacement is usually more economical.

We give honest advice either way. See our flat roof repair service.

It depends on the roof size, use, and budget. GRP is ideal for extensions and garages due to its seamless finish. EPDM suits larger flat roofs. Felt remains a proven, cost-effective choice. We assess each roof and recommend accordingly.
