Felt Flat Roofs In Cambridge
Felt has come a long way. The old single layer of tarred felt found on many Cambridge garages and extensions bears little resemblance to a modern torch-on system, which is built up in several layers and finished with a mineral cap sheet. For a straightforward flat roof it remains a sound and practical choice.
Options for your roof
We install and repair across all major options to suit your home and budget.

Old felt we replace in Cambridge
Across Arbury, King's Hedges and Chesterton, plenty of interwar and post-war houses have flat-roofed garages and porches still wearing their first or second felt covering. Typical signs are blisters, cracking along the edges, gravel washed into the gutter and damp patches on the ceiling below. On terraces off Mill Road, the same problems show up on rear extensions. We strip the old felt, check and replace the deck where needed, then torch on a base layer and a mineral-surfaced cap sheet, with new drip trims at the edges. Your new felt roof is covered by our 10-year guarantee.

Torch-on work uses a flame, so on tight terraced plots we take extra care near timber, neighbouring sheds and fences, and check the area again once the torch work is done. Felt is a good fit where the roof is rarely walked on. If you need foot traffic or a seamless finish, we will talk through GRP or EPDM as well.
