Flat Roofing in Lechlade-On-Thames, Gloucestershire

If you're looking for a 'fit and forget' solution, EPDM rubber roofing is probably your best bet. Think of it like a giant, durable inner tube that covers your entire roof in one single, seamless sheet. Because there are no joins, there's nowhere for the water to creep in. We find this is a huge favourite for residential extensions and garages in Gloucestershire because it’s incredibly UV resistant—it won't crack or rot under the sun or frost. Most of the folks we talk to are amazed to hear it has a life expectancy of up to 50 years. It’s a bit of an investment up front, but when you consider you might never have to worry about that roof again in your lifetime, it’s a bit of a no-brainer, isn't it? Give us a shout on 0117 428 9043 if you want to see if rubber is right for your home.

Planning a balcony or a roof that you might need to walk on occasionally? GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) fibreglass is the tough-as-nails option you’re looking for. It’s applied as a cold liquid and hardens into a solid, continuous surface that looks incredibly smart, especially on more modern properties or orangeries in the Cotswolds. It’s completely seamless and can be finished in a variety of colours to match your window frames or stonework. We see a lot of people choosing GRP for their porches or bay windows because it creates such a clean, crisp line. It's essentially the same stuff they use to build boat hulls, so you can be pretty sure it’s going to handle a bit of Gloucestershire rain without breaking a sweat.

Forget those old, leaky felt roofs from thirty years ago that used to bubble and peel. Modern torch-on felt roofing is a different beast entirely. We use high-performance, multi-layer bituminous felt that’s incredibly thick and flexible. It’s often the most cost-effective way to secure a large area, like a commercial unit or a big garden workshop, without sacrificing quality. Our team uses professional-grade torches to fuse the layers together, creating a massive, waterproof barrier. It’s a traditional method, but when it’s done by someone who actually knows what they’re doing—like our crew with 10+ years under their belts—it’s an incredibly reliable way to keep your property dry.

Does your flat roof look more like a swimming pool after a heavy downpour? That 'ponding' or pooling water is a classic sign that your roof's structure is sagging or the drainage is blocked. If left alone, that weight can cause some serious structural damage. We're out in Lechlade and the surrounding 25-mile radius every week fixing exactly these kinds of issues. From replacing a few blown upstands to clearing out industrial gutters or re-bedding flashings, no job is too small for us. We pride ourselves on being honest; if a simple repair will give you another five years of life, we’ll tell you. We won't try to sell you a whole new roof if you don't actually need one.
