Felt Flat Roofs In Laindon

Many Laindon homes still have their original felt flat roofs, and they are easy to spot: cracked, blistered and patched. Felt itself is not the problem. Modern torch-on felt is laid in several layers, heat-bonded together and finished with a mineral cap sheet, and it performs far better than the thin covering it replaces.

Local Knowledge

Replacing worn felt across Laindon

On garages, porches and extensions around Lee Chapel and the newer estates, the original felt has usually shrunk and cracked, especially at the edges and around upstands. Rain then gets into the decking, and the roof sags. We strip the old felt, replace any soft boards, and lay a new multi-layer torch-on system. The mineral cap sheet on top shields the layers below from sunlight and gives the roof a tidy, finished surface. New trims and a drip edge into the gutter complete the job, and we make sure flashings at the house wall are properly dressed.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01277 564074 or book online.

Is felt right for your Laindon roof?

Felt is a practical, good-value choice for a simple garage or porch roof that nobody walks on. Where trees overhang, we check outlets will stay clear, as leaves collect quickly on flat roofs near the woodland. If you need regular access, we may point you towards GRP instead. Once finished, the new felt roof carries our 10-year guarantee.

Felt Flat Roofs in Laindon — Your Questions

Everything you need to know about our felt flat roofs service across Laindon and Essex.

Old felt was often a single thin layer. Modern torch-on felt is several layers bonded with heat, topped with a mineral cap sheet, and laid on a sound deck, so it copes with the weather far better.
If the felt is sound apart from one split, a patch can work. If it is cracking all over, replacement is better value. A free written quote is just a phone call away on 01277 564074.
