Common Problems We Fix

Problems & Solutions

Ponding water on flat roof

Our fix: We assess the roof falls and either re-lay the deck to create proper drainage or install a tapered insulation system. GRP and EPDM systems handle minor ponding well, but persistent standing water shortens roof life.

Blistering or cracking felt

Our fix: Old mineral felt degrades under UV exposure. We strip back the failed felt and replace with a modern GRP fibreglass or EPDM system that won't blister, crack, or delaminate.

Leaking garage or extension roof

Our fix: Garage and extension flat roofs are the most common call-out. We inspect the membrane, upstands, and lead flashing details, then recommend the most cost-effective repair or replacement.

Failed flat-to-pitched roof junction

Our fix: Where a flat roof meets a pitched roof or brick wall, the flashing and upstand detail is critical. We install proper lead or GRP trims to create a permanently watertight seal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

How long does a GRP fibreglass flat roof last?

A properly installed GRP fibreglass flat roof has an expected lifespan of 25 to 40 years. It is one of the most durable flat roofing systems available, requiring virtually no maintenance. Many GRP systems come with a 25-year manufacturer guarantee.

What is the difference between GRP and EPDM flat roofing?

GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) creates a rigid, seamless shell that is extremely tough and can be walked on. EPDM is a flexible rubber membrane that is lighter and quicker to install. Both are excellent long-term solutions. GRP is generally preferred for areas with foot traffic, while EPDM suits larger, untrafficked areas.

How much does a flat roof replacement cost?

A typical garage flat roof replacement (around 15m²) costs between £1,200 and £2,500 depending on the system chosen. Larger extension roofs range from £2,500 to £5,000+. We provide free estimates with a full breakdown of materials and labour.

Can you repair my existing flat roof or does it need replacing?

It depends on the condition. Small splits, failed joints, or localised damage can often be repaired. If the felt is blistered, cracking across the surface, or the timber deck is rotten beneath, a full replacement is usually more cost-effective in the long run.

Do you install insulation with flat roofing?

Yes. We can install rigid PIR insulation boards as part of a warm-deck flat roof system. This improves energy efficiency, meets Building Regulations, and helps prevent condensation problems in the space below.
