Laying a flat roof requires little more than fitting a suitably flat surface. It needs precise calculations for weight distribution, as well as a slight incline to allow for water run-off.
Nowadays flat roofs come in a variety of different quality materials. During our free roofing inspection, we will explain which flat roofing solutions are most applicable to your flat roof.
We understand roof problems can be stressful, which is why we take pride in our professional roofing service that provides solutions with minimal disruption.
A flat roof is supported by a series of joists laid across the length of your property. This helps to distribute the weight safely and effectively. This is particularly important for roof terraces. We use quality timbers, installed with precision, to ensure your new flat roof is adequately supported.
Quite possibly the best flat roofing membrane, EPDM is a relatively low-cost flat roof material that offers a number of significant advantages. Clean, straightforward installation, incredible strength, a long lifespan, and a smart finish combine to make EPDM membranes a difficult one to beat.
The best way to waterproof a flat roof depends upon the surface conditions and the age of the structure/roof. The best option is Polyurethane Coating. The procedure involves surface preparation with wire brushing followed by cleaning and filling the exposed cracks with elastomeric material.
Most flat roofs are made of asphalt, rubber, PVC, or another synthetic material. Rubber and synthetic membranes are often simple to fix with adhesive patches, while asphalt can be repaired with caulk or resealed with bitumen. Just like any roof, a flat roof will develop leaks, however, the water doesn't have anywhere to go but straight down.
