Flat Roofing in Rushden and Higham Ferrers
Flat roofs fail at the edges and junctions more than anywhere else. We check the deck first and replace soft or rotten boards, make sure the roof falls towards the gutter, and seal upstands properly where the roof meets a wall.
EPDM is a single rubber sheet with very few joints. GRP cures into a hard, seamless finish that suits awkward shapes. Torch-on felt is a proven multi-layer system. We will explain which suits your roof and why.
- EPDM rubber single-ply roofs
- GRP fibreglass roofs
- Torch-on felt systems
- Deck, fall and edge-trim repairs
- Upstands, flashings and outlets
- Rooflights and roof windows sealed in

Flat Roofing questions
Which flat roof system is best?
It depends on the size and shape of the roof and how it is used. EPDM and GRP both suit most homes; we will recommend one and explain why.
Can a flat roof be repaired rather than replaced?
Small splits and failed edges can often be repaired. If the deck is soft or the covering has failed widely, replacement is the sensible option.
Why does water sit on my flat roof?
Usually the fall is too shallow or the deck has sagged. We can correct the fall when the roof is replaced.
Do you work on garage roofs?
Yes. We repair and replace flat roofs on garages, extensions, dormers and outbuildings.
