EPDM Flat Roofs In Brightlingsea

Beyond Brightlingsea's old waterfront streets, the post-war homes and bungalows often have flat-roofed garages and extensions. Plenty of them still wear old felt, patched and re-patched. EPDM replaces that with a single sheet of rubber, so the estuary wind has no seams in the main area to drive rain into.

Options for your roof

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

Local Knowledge

EPDM on Brightlingsea garages and extensions

The usual story is a garage or back extension where water has crept through the felt laps and softened the boards beneath. Laying anything new over a rotten deck would be a waste of money, so we strip back to the joists and fit a fresh deck first. The EPDM membrane is then bonded across the whole roof in one piece. Edge trims hold it tight, and a drip trim takes water cleanly into the gutter. Rubber stays flexible through frost and summer heat, so it does not crack the way old felt does.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01206 648098 or book online.

Getting the edges right by the estuary

Wind off the Colne can catch a poorly fixed edge, so full adhesion and solid perimeter trims are essential. If your extension adjoins a neighbour's, we agree the boundary detail before starting. Newer estate homes may still be under a builder's warranty, so check that first. The finished rubber roof comes with our 10-year guarantee on new roofs.
