Flat roofs

A flat roof is a roof which is almost level in contrast to the usual type of roofs on a property. The slope of a roof is properly known as its pitch and flat roofs have up to approximately 10°, this is to allow the rainwater to drain away. 


There are three main types of flat roofing system available:

 

Felt (mineral) 

Rubber

Fibreglass


Flat roofs are generally used for sheds, garages, some outbuildings and across bay windows to name a few.

Felt

A traditional felt roof is a flat roof surface that is built up using a wooden base and adding 2-3 layers of bitumous felt.These are then bonded together with heated bitumen and are subject to a finishing top coat that provdes both and attractive surface whilst helping  protect the new roof from the elements. This type of roof forms a dense and impermeable barrier to the elements.

Fibreglass

Fibreglass is made from tough resins and is the ideal solution for all GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) flat roofing problems.  It can be used on all flat roofs - from garages, outbuildings, extensions, and balconies.

Replacing the traditional Felt roofing surface with a fibreglass flat roofing system will last for many years, unlike the traditional felt roofing system.  It may be a little more expensive to install, however, but it will work out cheaper in the long run.  The product has been tried and tested throughout the industry.
