Flat roofs in Hove for rear extensions, bays and dormers

Flat roofs in Hove replaced from the deck up in torch-on felt, EPDM rubber or GRP, with a 25-year guarantee. Ring 01273 110909 or send the form for a free quote.

Hove's terraces and semis have gained a lot of flat roofs over the years: rear extensions, kitchen additions, bay tops and rear dormers. Many are on their second or third felt covering, laid over the old one, on a deck that has been getting wetter every winter.

We strip back to the joists, replace soft boards with a new OSB deck and lay the system that suits the roof. Rooflights are built into the deck with proper upstands, and the edge where the flat roof meets the house wall gets a dressed upstand and flashing, which is where most extension roofs leak.

Access in Hove's narrow side returns and back gardens is tight. We plan the strip and the waste so the job is done in a day or two without filling your garden.

Flat roofing in Hove: questions

Can you replace the flat roof on my Hove extension in a day?

A small extension or bay roof, yes. Larger roofs or those needing new joists take two to three days.

Can you add a rooflight while you re-roof?

Yes, built into the new deck with a proper upstand.

Do you replace the boards underneath?

Yes, every time we replace a covering. Laying new felt over a wet or soft deck is how flat roofs fail early.

Felt, EPDM or GRP: which is best?

Torch-on felt is the most familiar and suits most extensions and garages. EPDM rubber is one single sheet with no joints, good on simple shapes. GRP gives a hard, walkable finish and handles awkward details well. We recommend the one that suits your roof, not the one with the biggest margin. Our flat roof types guide explains the differences.
