Felt Flat Roofs In Dovercourt

Felt has covered Dovercourt's flat-roofed garages and extensions for generations, but the old stuff was a single thin layer. Today's torch-on systems use two or three layers, heat-welded together and topped with a mineral cap sheet, which makes for a far tougher roof.

Local Knowledge

Replacing worn felt across Dovercourt

Typical signs on the bungalows and post-war houses inland are blisters, cracked joints, standing water and green growth along the edges. Sometimes there is damp on the ceiling below. We strip the old felt and any rotten boarding, lay a new deck, then torch on an underlay and a mineral-surfaced cap sheet. The felt is turned up the walls and sealed under fresh lead or trims, and the outlet is set to drain properly. It is a dependable, economical way to renew a plain flat roof. If your garage has a timber fascia that has gone soft, we can replace that during the same visit.

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

Felt near the North Sea

The mineral cap sheet shields the layers below from sun and salt, and fully bonded laps keep wind from lifting the edges. We take care around timber fascias, which are common on homes here, and replace any that are rotten rather than trapping the damp behind new felt. Your new felt roof is covered by our 10-year guarantee on new roofs.
