Felt Flat Roofs In Maldon

Many flat roofs on Maldon's post-war homes were covered in felt when they were built, and plenty still are. A modern torch-on system is a different thing: several layers fused together with heat and topped with a mineral cap sheet that shields everything below from sunlight and weather.

Local Knowledge

Old felt we replace in Maldon

The usual faults are blistering, cracks at the edges and laps that have opened, mostly on garages and extensions on the estates towards Heybridge. Felt also turns up on rear flat roofs and dormers on older terraces near the centre. We remove the old covering, repair or renew the deck, then torch down a base layer, an intermediate layer and a mineral cap sheet. Each layer is lapped and sealed, and drip trims and upstands are fitted so rain sheds cleanly into the gutter.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01245 520306 or book online.

Felt by the water

Wind off the estuary tests the edges of a flat roof, so we make sure trims are firmly fixed and laps fully sealed. Torch-on work uses a flame, so we take extra care around timber and older roof voids, especially on period buildings in the conservation areas. A new felt roof comes with our 10-year guarantee.
