Frequently asked — Flat Roofing in Watlington

EPDM rubber or felt — which is better?+

For most extensions in Watlington 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 Watlington 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.

Will the new flat roof take a Velux?+

Yes — we install Velux flat-roof rooflights with kerb upstands and full EPDM/lead detailing during new flat-roof installs across Watlington.

Do you fit GRP fibreglass flat roofs in Watlington?+

We focus on EPDM and high-performance felt because they outperform GRP on residential extensions in our experience — fewer cracking issues, easier repair, longer life.
