Felt Flat Roofs In Braintree
Many of the estates built in Braintree from the 1960s onwards came with felt garage roofs, and a lot of those original coverings are now cracked and patched. Modern felt is much tougher than what was laid back then. Torch-on systems give a practical, familiar finish that suits garages and extensions well.

We install and repair across all major options to suit your home and budget.

Felt garage roofs across Braintree
We regularly replace felt on garages and back additions in Bocking, High Garrett and Black Notley. Typical signs are splits along old joints, bubbles that crunch underfoot, moss in the dips and water dripping onto whatever is stored below. Our modern felt roofs are built from several layers torched together: a base layer, an underlay and a mineral cap sheet on top that shields the felt from sun and weather. First, we replace any rotten decking and correct the falls so water drains to the gutter. You get our 10-year guarantee, as with any new roof.
Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01245 520306 or book online.

Because torch-on felt is laid with a flame, we take extra care near timber, especially on older outbuildings close to period homes in the centre. Exposed garages on the edge of town need well-sealed edges so the wind cannot lift them. On shared garage blocks, we finish your section neatly against the next one.
