Whitton Flat Roofing Solutions
Whitton has a good mix of semi-detached houses, bungalows and 1930s properties, many of which have flat roofs on extensions, garages and rear additions. These roofs take a lot of weather over the years and eventually they need attention.
We cover everything. New roofs, repairs, full replacements and drainage fixes. If it is flat, we work on it. We use EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and felt systems depending on what suits the property and the budget.
Flat roofing is not complicated when it is done properly. The right material, fitted correctly, with proper drainage and sealed edges. That is what we do on every job in Whitton.
What Our Whitton Flat Roofing Experts Do
A flat roof is any roof with a very low pitch, usually on extensions, garages, porches or single-storey additions. They are common on the kind of 1930s and post-war housing you see a lot of in Whitton.
Unlike pitched roofs, flat roofs rely on membranes and drainage rather than slope to move water away. When the membrane starts to fail, water builds up, and that leads to leaks, damp and damage to the structure underneath.
Getting the right material fitted the right way is what makes the difference between a roof that lasts 20 years and one that starts leaking within a few.

Why Invest in Whitton Flat Roofing Services
A flat roof that is showing its age will not fix itself. Once water gets under the membrane it gets into the roof deck, then the ceiling, then the timbers. By the time you see a damp patch on the ceiling the damage has often already spread.
A small repair done now is a fraction of the cost of replacing damaged ceilings, joists and insulation later. Most flat roofs in Whitton that have failed could have been saved with earlier attention.
A new flat roof properly fitted will last 20 years or more. It also improves the insulation of the space below and keeps your heating bills down. For properties in Whitton that are used as living space or home offices, that matters.
We are honest about what a roof needs. If it can be repaired we will tell you. We do not push replacements when a repair will do the job.
