EPDM Rubber Roofing

A single layer rubber membrane that stretches and flexes with the roof. Long lasting, low maintenance and great for all weather. A popular choice for extensions and garages in Thames Ditton.

GRP Fibreglass Roofing

A seamless watertight finish. No joins means no weak spots. Works well on roofs with awkward shapes or edges, which you often see on older properties around the area.

Felt and Torch-On Systems

A solid option when fitted properly. We use quality felt applied correctly to get a clean, reliable finish that lasts.

What Our Thames Ditton Flat Roofing Experts Do

A flat roofing service covers everything your roof needs. We look at the roof, work out what is wrong or what needs replacing, and carry out the work using materials that meet UK building standards.

Getting a flat roof right means more than just laying a sheet on top. The falls need to be correct so water runs off. Edges and joins need to be sealed. Insulation needs to be in place. We do all of this on every job in Thames Ditton.

Why Invest in Thames Ditton Flat Roofing Services

A flat roof that is leaking will not fix itself. Water gets in, soaks into the timbers and causes damp. Left long enough it leads to structural damage and a much bigger repair bill.

Many Thames Ditton homes have flat roofed extensions added over the years. These are often the first to show wear. Catching it early saves money.

A properly replaced flat roof lasts 20 years or more. It keeps your home dry, improves insulation and adds value to the property. It is one of those jobs that pays for itself over time.

We give you an honest quote, turn up when we say we will and get the work done to a standard we are proud of. No pushing extra work that is not needed.
