Flat Roofing

Flat Roofing in your area

Flat roofing covers a wide range of situations: garage roofs, house extensions, bay window tops, and outbuildings are the most common in Brandon. The challenge with flat roofs is that water sits on them rather than running off quickly, which means the installation quality and the choice of membrane material are critical. Old-style mineral felt rarely lasts more than ten to fifteen years and is vulnerable to splitting, blistering, and ponding damage.

We install flat roofs using GRP fibreglass and EPDM rubber membranes, both of which are far more durable than traditional felt. GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) is laminated directly to the deck and creates a rigid, seamless surface — it won't split or blister and is ideal for roofs with limited falls. EPDM rubber is flexible, UV-stable, and well suited to larger flat roof areas or roofs with slight movement. Both systems come with long-term guarantees and require minimal maintenance. We also repair existing flat roofs, including patching splits, treating ponding areas, and improving drainage outlets.

Flat roof work looks deceptively straightforward, but poor preparation of the deck, incorrect detailing at upstands and edges, or using the wrong primer for the substrate will cause early failure. We install all flat roofs to manufacturer specification, which is a requirement for the material guarantees to be valid.

We'll inspect your existing flat roof or new deck and recommend the most appropriate system for the size, use, and condition of the roof. Work on a standard single-garage flat roof is usually completed within one to two days. All installations come with a written guarantee.

Flat roofs in Brandon typically cost between £70 and £120 per square metre for a full GRP or EPDM installation, depending on deck condition and edge detailing required.
