By their very nature, flat roofs
have a shorter lifespan than pitched roofs because water can't run off so easily and can puddle on flat roof
surfaces. With the change of temperatures throughout the year, from hot in summer to freezing in winter, the seals in a traditional felt roof expand and contract and eventually weaken, allowing water to seep through the roof. Flat roofs
are subject to a terrific battering by the weather.
Both EPDM Rubber
and GRP Fibreglass
offer excellent alternatives to traditional felt roofing. GRP Fibreglass
is used on the hulls of boats because it has no seals and is totally waterproof, making it ideal for flat roofs too! Installed correctly, GRP Fibreglass
can significantly extend the life of your flat roof
by more than 4 times that of a felt roof.
