Flat Roofs in Walthamstow
Flat Roofing in Walthamstow
Flat-roofed rear extensions, kitchen extensions and garages are common across London, and their roofs work harder than most. Water sits on them longer, the sun bakes them in summer and every join is a possible leak. Felt that cracks, rubber that lifts at a trim and fibreglass that has crazed all let water into the deck below. Ashlar Roofing repairs and replaces flat roofs in Walthamstow and across E17, covering homes and commercial property throughout the London Borough of Waltham Forest.
The right answer depends on what is under the covering. Where the deck is dry and the problem is a single split or a lifted edge, a targeted repair can extend the roof's life. Where the boards have softened or the felt has failed in several places, we recommend stripping back and laying a new EPDM rubber, torch-on felt or GRP fibreglass roof, with the quote agreed before any work begins.
What's included
What a New or Repaired Flat Roof Includes
The main parts of the job, each listed in your quote.
- An inspection of the existing deck and timbers, so a new covering is laid on a sound base rather than over hidden rot.
- A choice of rubber, felt or fibreglass covering, matched to the roof's size, use and budget so you are not paying for more than it needs.
- Insulation options when the roof is replaced, helping to keep the room below warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
- Correct falls and outlets, so rainwater drains away instead of pooling and wearing out the covering early.
- Properly detailed upstands, trims and flashings where the roof meets walls, which is where many flat roof leaks begin.
- Repairs to splits, blisters and failed seams on existing roofs, where the deck is sound and a repair makes more sense than replacement.
