Felt Flat Roofs In Stansted Mountfitchet

Plenty of the flat-roofed garages and extensions in Stansted Mountfitchet were first covered in felt, and many owners are happy to keep it. Modern torch-on felt is laid in several bonded layers and finished with a mineral cap sheet, giving a tougher, more weather-resistant roof than the old single layers.

Options for your roof

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

Local Knowledge

Modern felt roofs for Stansted Mountfitchet homes

When we inspect older felt in Stansted Mountfitchet, the giveaways are crazed surfaces, blisters, bare patches where the chippings have gone and water standing in dips. We strip the old layers, check the joists, and lay a new deck where the boards are soft. A base layer is torched to the deck, then a mineral-surfaced cap sheet goes on top, with laps sealed and upstands taken up the wall under a flashing. Felt is a good option on garages and extensions on the post-war and newer homes, and many homeowners like its familiar look. A replacement felt roof is a new roof, so our 10-year guarantee applies.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01279 294082 or book online.

Fire safety and old buildings

Torching needs care, especially near timber-framed buildings and old timber fascias. On those roofs we may recommend a cold-applied option such as EPDM or GRP instead. Where the property is listed or in the conservation area, we check any consent needed. Felt replacement on most homes needs no planning permission.
