GRP Fibreglass Flat Roofs In Manningtree

If you want a flat roof you can walk on, GRP is hard to beat. Glass-reinforced polyester is laid wet, built up with glass matting and finished with a topcoat, curing into one solid layer. For Manningtree homes with extensions or flat dormers, it gives a tidy, hard-wearing surface with no seams.

Options for your roof

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

Local Knowledge

Fibreglass roofs on Manningtree homes

Around Manningtree, Mistley and Lawford, we use GRP mostly on rear extensions, flat dormers and the odd balcony or roof terrace on newer homes. It's especially useful where people need to step onto the roof, for instance to clean windows or maintain a neighbouring slope. To lay it, we remove the old covering, fit a new deck and add preformed trims around the edges. Then the resin and glass mat are rolled on in one continuous coat, with corners and upstands formed in the same layer. Once cured, the topcoat goes on, giving a smooth finish in a colour of your choice.

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

Estuary damp and good drainage

Being close to the Stour estuary means damp air, so a flat roof here must shed water quickly. We set the falls carefully and make sure outlets and gutters take water away cleanly. GRP is laid in dry weather only. New fibreglass flat roofs come with our 10-year guarantee.

GRP Fibreglass Flat Roofs in Manningtree — Your Questions

Everything you need to know about our grp fibreglass flat roofs service across Manningtree and Essex.

GRP suits walk-on areas well. A new balcony may need planning permission, especially in the conservation area, so we'll check before you commit. If a terrace isn't on the cards, it still makes a hard-wearing roof that's easy to inspect from a window.
GRP cures into one seamless, hard layer, while felt is built from overlapping sheets. Both can work well. Ring 01206 648098 and we'll compare them on a free written quote for your Manningtree home.
