Flat Roofing in Egham, Surrey

We all know the classic signs of a failing flat roof: that annoying 'ponding' water that sits for days, or the tell-tale blistering where the old bitumen has finally given up the ghost. In our experience, most Egham homeowners only realise there's a problem when the buckets come out. But it doesn't have to be a disaster. Modern flat roofing technology has come on leaps and bounds, moving away from the leaky, short-lived materials of the past. We specialise in systems that aren't just watertight, but are built to withstand the specific weather patterns we get here in Surrey. From ensuring your upstands are perfectly sealed to checking the substrate is rock solid, we handle the details so you don't have to.

If you want a roof that you can basically forget about for the next fifty years, EPDM rubber is likely your best bet. It's a single-ply membrane that's incredibly flexible—it doesn't care if it's a freezing January night or a scorching July afternoon; it just stretches and moves with your building without cracking. We often recommend this for residential extensions because it’s installed in large, seamless sheets, meaning there are no joints for water to sneak through. Plus, it's environmentally friendly and looks great with a clean, slate-grey finish. It’s one of those 'set it and forget it' solutions that offers incredible peace of mind for any homeowner.

Looking for something that's tough enough to walk on? GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) fibreglass might be exactly what you need. It's a fantastic choice for balconies or roofs that need a bit of extra durability. When we install a GRP roof in Egham, we're essentially creating a single, seamless 'tub' over your building. There are no seams at all, and it’s finished with a hard-wearing topcoat that comes in various colours to suit your property's style. It’s incredibly popular for modern builds and refurbishments because it looks crisp and professional while being virtually bulletproof against the elements. If you’re tired of joints failing on your old roof, this seamless finish is the answer.

Don't confuse modern torch-on felt with the flimsy stuff from the 1970s. The high-performance elastomeric felt we use today is a completely different beast. It's layered up to create a thick, resilient barrier that’s perfect for garages, outbuildings, and even main house extensions. We use a three-layer system that provides a massive upgrade in terms of strength and life expectancy. It's a cost-effective way to get a professional, long-lasting finish without breaking the bank. Many of our customers in Runnymede choose this for its proven track record and the fantastic value it offers, especially when installed by a team that knows exactly how to handle the torching process safely and effectively.
