EPDM Flat Roofs In Rayleigh

Rayleigh has a lot of flat roofs tucked onto pitched-roof homes: garages beside 1930s semis, porches on bungalows and the flat tops of dormers. Many still carry old felt that is well past its best. EPDM replaces it with a single sheet of rubber membrane, so there are no seams for water to work through.

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

Local Knowledge

Garages, porches and dormers in Rayleigh

Dormer roofs are a particular weak spot on chalet bungalows around town. They are small, awkward to reach and often only noticed when a bedroom ceiling stains. Garage roofs near Rayleigh Weir and Down Hall tend to show ponding, split laps and a spongy deck. Our approach is the same whatever the size: strip the felt, lay a new deck, bond the EPDM sheet across it and fit edge trims plus a proper upstand where it meets the wall. On a dormer, we also renew the flashing where the flat roof joins the main tiles.

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

Things to check before you go rubber

Like-for-like flat roof replacement usually needs no planning permission, though the town centre's Article 4 direction can affect visible changes there. If the dormer cheeks or side walls are leaking as well, it makes sense to fix them on the same visit. Your new flat roof comes with our 10-year guarantee.

EPDM Flat Roofs in Rayleigh — Your Questions

Everything you need to know about our epdm flat roofs service across Rayleigh and Essex.

Yes. Dormer roofs are usually small enough for one sheet, and rubber copes well with the movement and temperature swings these roofs see. We pair it with new lead flashing where the dormer meets the main roof.
Some ponding is common on old felt roofs, but it speeds up wear and usually means the deck has sagged. A new deck laid to a fall puts it right. Call 01702 861098 and we will give you a free written quote.
