Flat roofs are common across Downham Market on garage roofs, single-storey kitchen and living-room extensions, and commercial buildings. Done well, a modern flat roof will outlast the older felt systems that gave flat roofing a bad name. We install three main systems — EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, and hot-applied torch-on felt — and we'll recommend the right one based on the size, use, and access requirements of the area being covered.
GRP fibreglass is our most popular choice for domestic extensions and garages. It's applied as a liquid that cures to a hard, seamless surface, with no joins or seams to fail over time. EPDM rubber is better suited to large flat areas, including commercial roofs, because it comes in wide sheets that cover big spans without laps. Torch-on felt is a reliable, cost-effective option for straightforward garage and outhouse roofs. Each system is installed over insulated decking to current building regulation standards for thermal performance.
Older properties in Downham Market often have felt flat roofs from the 1980s and 1990s that are starting to blister, crack, or pull away at the edges. These are best replaced entirely rather than patched — a failed felt roof patched repeatedly will keep failing. We strip the old covering, inspect and if necessary replace the deck boards, and install the new system over new insulation where required.
We survey every flat roof before quoting, checking the falls, drainage, and any upstand details around parapets or adjoining walls. Most domestic flat roof replacements take one to three days. GRP and EPDM installations carry a 20-year material warranty alongside our own workmanship guarantee.
Flat roofs in Downham Market typically cost between £70 and £120 per square metre installed, depending on the system chosen and the complexity of the drainage and upstand details.
