Flat Roofs

Flat roofs on Southampton properties take more punishment than most people expect. Extensions, dormers and the flat-roofed additions common on the city’s post-war housing sit low, collect standing water, and are usually the first part of a property to leak once the covering hardens and splits.

Age is the giveaway. Traditional felt roofs laid in three layers typically last around fifteen to twenty years before the surface cracks; modern single-ply and fibreglass systems, correctly laid to a proper fall with the right upstands and trims, run considerably longer.

We survey the deck as well as the covering, because a flat roof that has been leaking for a while has often already softened the timber underneath. Call 023 8155 0011 for a free assessment.

Every flat roof we lay is guaranteed in writing, and we will show you the deck condition in photographs before it is covered over.

We work in fibreglass, EPDM rubber and modern torch-on systems, and we will explain which suits your roof, its size and its access rather than fitting the one that is quickest for us.

Falls and drainage matter more on a flat roof than the covering itself. Water that cannot get away will find the one weak lap or upstand and sit on it until it fails. We correct falls as part of the job rather than laying a new surface over an old problem.
