Felt Flat Roofs In South Benfleet
Torch-on felt is still a sensible option for many flat roofs in South Benfleet, especially on garages and porches attached to the area's 1930s and post-war homes. It bears little resemblance to the thin, single-layer felt those roofs were first given. Today's systems are built up in layers and capped with a hard-wearing mineral sheet.
Options for your roof
We install and repair across all major options to suit your home and budget.
Felt garage roof
A durable mineral-surfaced torch-on felt roof protecting a domestic garage.
Torch-on felt laid on OSB
High-performance torch-on bitumen felt being heat-bonded over fresh OSB deck.
Felt extension roof
Multi-layer torch-on system protecting a residential rear extension with clean falls.
Re-felting garages, porches and extensions
Across Benfleet, the flat roofs we re-felt are often on side garages, front porches and small rear additions. Worn felt shows as cracks along the laps, blisters, and loose edges that let rain under. We strip the roof down to the deck, replace any soft boards, then torch on a base layer and finish with a mineral-surfaced cap sheet that guards the felt from sunlight. Upstands are dressed up walls and tucked beneath tiles or flashing. New edge trims and a drip detail guide water into the gutter.
Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01702 861098 or book online.

Felt makes good sense where a roof is simple and budget matters. Where a roof is walked on, GRP may suit better, and for larger areas EPDM is worth comparing. We explain the options plainly in your free written quote. The finished roof is covered by our 10-year guarantee, whichever system you choose.
