Felt Flat Roofs In Peterborough

A lot of the felt on Peterborough's flat roofs went down when the new town townships were built. After all that time, old felt cracks, blisters and lets water in. A modern torch-on system, built up in layers with a mineral cap sheet, is a big step forward.

Local Knowledge

Old felt across Peterborough

In Bretton, Werrington and the Ortons, original or early replacement felt on garages, porches and links is often bare of its chippings, split along the joins and soft where water has pooled. Similar wear turns up on extensions elsewhere in the city. We strip the old felt and check the deck; any rotten boards come out. Then we torch on an underlay layer and a mineral-surfaced cap sheet, sealing upstands properly and fixing new drip and welted trims at the edges. It is a practical, well-proven way to renew a simple flat roof. New flat roofs like this come with our 10-year guarantee.

Choosing felt in Peterborough

Torch-on felt suits garage and porch roofs that are rarely walked on. Because the work involves a flame, we take extra care near timber fascias, which are common on new town homes, and often recommend replacing them with UPVC at the same time. We can also quote for EPDM or GRP.

Felt Flat Roofs in Peterborough — Your Questions
