EPDM Flat Roofs In Thaxted

Around the edges of Thaxted, post-war and newer homes have flat-roofed garages and extensions, and when their felt wears out EPDM is a tidy replacement. Because EPDM is laid as a single sheet and bonded without a flame, it is also useful on flat roofs close to old timber-framed buildings.

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

Local Knowledge

EPDM flat roofs in Thaxted

The flat roofs we replace in Thaxted are mostly on single garages, rear extensions and small additions to the newer houses on the outskirts. Typical faults are cracked felt, ponding and soft decking. We strip the roof back, replace the deck with new boards, then bond the EPDM membrane down in one continuous piece. New edge trims, a drip detail into the gutter and properly dressed upstands at walls complete the roof. Where a flat roof sits behind or beside an older building, the dark matt finish of EPDM is discreet. As with any new flat roof we fit, it carries our 10-year guarantee.

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

Flat roofs in a historic town

If the flat roof is part of a listed building, consent may be needed even for a replacement, so we check first. Being a cold-applied membrane, EPDM avoids using a torch next to old timber, which is a real advantage in Thaxted's centre. We also make sure the roof falls properly and drains away from walls.
