Felt Flat Roofs In Rochford

Felt is still a practical choice for many flat roofs in Rochford, particularly on post-war bungalows with garages and porches. Today's torch-on felt is laid in layers and is far tougher than the single sheet many of these roofs started with.

Local Knowledge

Felt flat roofs we renew in Rochford

Garages and porches on the post-war streets of Rochford often have felt that has dried out, cracked along the laps and lifted at the edges where wind has got under it. Water then soaks into the deck, which goes soft. We strip the roof back, replace damaged boards and lay a multi-layer torch-on system. A base layer bonds to the deck, a further layer seals it, and a mineral cap sheet forms the top surface, protecting the felt from the sun. New edge trims and a proper upstand at the wall complete the job, keeping water heading to the gutter.

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

Felt roofing in an exposed town

Wind across the open countryside around Rochford can lift weak edges, so we bond the felt fully and secure the trims. Bungalow porches sit low over the front door, so we keep the drip trim neat and the edge straight. A full re-felt comes under our 10-year guarantee, and patch repairs are quoted free in writing.
