Local context — flat roofing in Chorleywood
Flat-roof work in Chorleywood (WD3) is dominated by single-storey rear extensions, garage roofs, dormer cheeks and porch roofs. Chorleywood Common is a SSSI so scaffold, welfare and material storage on any property backing the Common is restricted — we route deliveries via Rickmansworth Road rather than Common-side lanes. For new flat roofs notifiable to Three Rivers District Council we provide the system spec, U-value calculation and fire-class evidence as standard — not an extra.
We work across WD3 with easy access from M25 Junction 18 and A404.
Why Chorleywood homeowners pick Butler Bespoke Roofing

Frequently asked — Flat Roofing in Chorleywood
EPDM rubber or felt — which is better?+
For most extensions in Chorleywood we recommend single-ply EPDM rubber: one-piece installation, 25+ year life and no seams to fail. Torch-on felt is still the right call for some applications and budgets.
How long does a flat roof last?+
A properly installed EPDM rubber flat roof in Chorleywood should give 25-30 years; high-performance torch-on felt 15-20 years.
Can you overlay my existing flat roof?+
Sometimes — only if the deck and existing covering are sound. We'll always inspect and recommend a strip-and-refresh where overlay would just store up problems.
How do you stop ponding on a flat roof?+
Proper fall (1:80 minimum) built into the deck during install. We won't lay EPDM over a deck without adequate fall — it's the single biggest cause of premature flat-roof failure in Chorleywood.
Can you insulate during a flat-roof renewal?+
Yes — a warm-roof build-up with 100mm+ PIR insulation transforms an old extension's energy performance and is now standard under Part L for notifiable jobs.
