Felt Flat Roofs In Canvey Island

Felt flat roof replacements are one of the most common jobs on Canvey Island. The old single-layer felt put on many dormers and extensions has spent years in sun and salty wind, so it splits and lifts. Modern torch-on felt is a very different product, built up in layers and finished with a tough mineral surface.

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

Local Knowledge

Replacing tired felt across Canvey

We see worn felt on chalet dormers, flat-roofed porches and rear extensions throughout SS8, from Canvey Village to the roads near the seafront. Blisters, cracks and layers of old patch repairs are typical, and water often tracks in at the edges. A new system starts with stripping back and checking the deck. We then torch on a base layer, followed by a cap sheet with a mineral finish that shields the felt from sunlight. Upstands are dressed up walls and under tiles, and new trims finish the edges. It remains a sound, cost-effective choice for many island homes.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01702 861098 or book online.

What matters for felt on the island

Edges and laps are where wind gets a grip, so on Canvey we bond the cap sheet firmly at every perimeter. Torching is done with care around timber fascias, and fire safety checks are part of every job. Your new flat roof comes with our 10-year guarantee, and we explain how felt compares with EPDM and GRP.
