What we offer

Flat Roofing: what to know

Flat roofs rely on sound junctions and functioning drainage. Persistent ponding, split felt, blistering or damp at ceiling level can all justify an inspection, particularly around upstands and outlets.

Flat roofing methods and specifications depend on the existing roof, substrate and access. We can discuss three-layer felt systems and the most suitable approach for your property.

We work across Eastbourne and nearby East Sussex areas. Every quotation depends on the property, access requirements and the condition of existing materials.

Detailed advice

Understanding the work before you book

A flat roof needs reliable weatherproof junctions at its edges, walls, outlets and any skylights. Splits, blistering, failing lap joints and water collecting around blocked drains should be reviewed in context rather than using a temporary patch as a permanent solution.

For a three-layer felt covering, the specification matters: deck condition, preparation, layers, upstands and edge finishing all influence performance. A quotation should say whether any existing covering or timber deck is being removed, whether insulation is being changed and how rainwater will discharge.

A leak at a lower ceiling can also originate from the wall above a flat roof. We can discuss inspection of the junctions before deciding on repair versus re-covering.

What to send when requesting an inspection

Send your East Sussex postcode, whether the issue is urgent, a brief description of the affected area and, if you have them, photos taken safely from the ground or indoors. Tell us about previous repairs or any existing workmanship guarantee. We will discuss next steps and whether an on-site visit is required.
