Felt Flat Roofs In Letchworth Garden City
Felt has covered flat roofs in Letchworth since the post-war estates went up, and the old single-layer sort is now cracking and blistering on many garages and porches. Modern torch-on felt is a different product: several layers bonded with heat and topped with a mineral cap sheet that protects it from sunlight and wear.
Options for your roof
We install and repair across all major options to suit your home and budget.

Old felt we replace around SG6
On flat-roofed garages and extensions from the post-war estates, we usually find felt that has split along the laps, lifted at the edges or bubbled where water got underneath. Under the trees that line so many Letchworth roads, leaf litter makes things worse by holding damp against the surface. We strip back to the deck, replace any soft boards, then torch on an underlayer and a mineral cap sheet, sealing the upstands where the roof meets the wall. For homeowners watching their budget, a modern felt system is a sensible, proven option.

Torch-on felt is laid with a gas burner, so we take care around timber fascias, soffits and garden hedges, and keep extinguishers within reach throughout. When the roof is part of a row of garages, we talk to neighbours about where one roof finishes and the next begins. Every new flat roof we lay carries our 10-year guarantee.
