Felt Roofing
Bitumen-based Felt Roofing has been used for flat roofing applications for decades, and it has worked well. Although most felts only carry a 10 year guarantee these felts are common to last as long as 20 years.
The main benefit of felt flat roofing is the cost. Felt roofing has the lowest cost when it comes to flat roofing.
Single Ply Membranes
Single Ply Membranes are not really a new technology in itself, single ply membranes have been used in the likes of Germany and the U.S.A for decades. However, it has become more available and common in the residential sector of flat roofs in the past decade. With brands such as Rubberbond, Firestone and Rheponal there are numerous choices to choose from. The benefits of an EPDM roof are the flexibility of the material, the ease of the application, the long life expectancy and the fact there is no heat needed to apply the material.
Fibre Glass Roofing (GRP Flat roofing)
Fibre Glass Roofing like the single ply roofing has been until about a decade ago used for flat roofs on high profile buildings where life expectancy is the most important factor, however, fibreglass is now used on thousands of residential properties across the country. GRP Flat roofing has benefits such as tensile strength, being easily shaped and laid into difficult detail and a choice of many colours. Fibreglass roofing also comes with a 20 year guarantee and a life expectancy of 40 years.
