Felt Flat Roofs In Rayleigh
Torch-on felt has come a long way from the thin single sheet still found on many older Rayleigh garages. A modern system is built up in layers fused with heat and finished with a mineral cap sheet, and it handles awkward shapes, pipes and rooflights very well.

Felt flat roofs around Rayleigh
Old felt is one of the most common jobs on Rayleigh's post-war homes. We find it on garages, porches, the flat sections on chalet bungalow dormers and the backs of 1930s houses. Typical faults are blistering, cracking at the edges and loose gravel washing into gutters. We strip it off, renew any rotten boards, then torch down a base layer, an intermediate layer and a mineral cap sheet, lapping each one so water sheds cleanly. Drip trims at the edge and a proper upstand where the roof meets the wall finish the job.
Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01702 861098 or book online.

Felt suits roofs with lots of pipes, rooflights or odd angles, which is common on extended bungalows. Because it uses a flame, we take care near timber fascias and roof voids. Most like-for-like flat roof work in SS6 needs no permission. A new felt roof from us includes the 10-year guarantee we give on all new roofs.
