How It Works
Flat Roofing in Wednesbury, FAQs
Nearly always, we sequence shop-top recovers around trading, protect access and frontages, and keep the noisy stages to agreed windows. The roof gets fixed and the tills keep ringing, that is the plan we write with you.
Ours on both counts, the parapet is brickwork and its junction with the roof is roofing, and Wednesbury’s town-centre buildings have plenty of both. Coping, flashing and upstand get rebuilt as one detail, which is the only way it stays fixed.
Both are excellent when fitted right, so it comes down to the roof. EPDM suits larger, simpler roofs because it goes down in one continuous sheet and copes with a bit of movement. GRP gives a hard, walkable finish and crisp edges, which suits smaller roofs, balconies and roofs with lots of detail. We quote whichever suits yours, or both so you can compare.
Standing water, called ponding, ages any flat roof faster: it strains the membrane, freezes in winter and finds any weak seam. Sometimes the fix is as simple as correcting the falls with firring or a tapered board when the roof is recovered. If your roof ponds, it is worth a look before it starts leaking.
If the covering is basically sound and the problem is local, yes, a patch or a new outlet detail can buy years. If the felt is blistered and cracked across the whole roof, patching is money down the drain and we will say so. You get the honest option, priced.
