Felt Flat Roofs In Cheshunt

Felt has been on Cheshunt's flat roofs since the town grew after the war, and plenty of homeowners are happy to stay with it. Modern torch-on felt is very different from the thin roll felt of the past. It goes down in several layers, heat-bonded together, and finishes with a mineral cap sheet that protects it from sunlight and wear.

Local Knowledge

Replacing felt on Cheshunt garages and extensions

The roofs we replace are usually the originals on garages, porches and back extensions of 1930s and post-war houses. Typical signs are blisters, cracks running across the surface, moss along the edges and stains on the ceiling below. Once the old layers come off, we check the deck and replace any boards that have gone soft. A base layer is laid first, then the cap sheet is torched on with overlapping joints, and the edges are finished with trims and a dressed upstand at the wall. It is a sound, cost-conscious option for roofs that are mostly out of sight.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 020 3916 6179 or book online.

Felt, flame and neighbours

Torch-on work involves an open flame, so we take care near timber fascias and plan how to protect them. Where garages run in a row, as on some Cheshunt roads, we agree with neighbours how the edges will meet. Replacing a felt roof like for like normally needs no planning permission.
