What is the best flat roofing system?

EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass are the two most popular and reliable modern flat roof systems. EPDM offers excellent flexibility and a 20+ year lifespan, while GRP provides a seamless, hard-wearing finish ideal for walkable flat roofs. We'll recommend the best option based on your property and budget.

How long does a flat roof last?

A modern EPDM or GRP flat roof typically lasts 20–25+ years with proper installation. Traditional felt roofs last around 10–15 years. We recommend upgrading older felt roofs to EPDM or GRP for significantly longer lifespan and better performance.

Can you repair a leaking flat roof?

Yes, we repair all types of flat roof leaks. We'll inspect the roof to find the source of the leak — which can be caused by ponding water, split felt, failed seams, or damaged edges — and carry out a lasting repair. In some cases, we may recommend a full overlay or replacement for the most cost-effective long-term solution.
