Is it right for your roof?

Where this service can make sense.

Every flat roof needs to be assessed on its own condition, construction and details. These are common situations where this service may be considered.

  • Home extensions and dormers
  • Garages and outbuildings
  • Commercial flat-roof areas
  • Replacement of worn felt systems
  • Roofs requiring dependable edge detailing
  • New timber-deck flat roofs

The working process

From first inspection to finished roof.

The exact method depends on the existing roof, but the work follows a clear sequence focused on preparation and waterproof detailing.

  1. 01

    Inspect and prepare

    The existing covering, deck, edges, outlets and penetrations are checked so the correct build-up can be planned.

  2. 02

    Make the base sound

    Loose or failed material is removed and damaged deck areas are repaired or replaced where required.

  3. 03

    Install the felt system

    The membranes are laid in controlled layers with particular care at laps, upstands, corners and roof details.

  4. 04

    Finish and check

    Edges and penetrations are completed neatly, then the finished roof is checked throughout.
