About this service

An established flat roof covering built in layers

Modern roofing felt forms a waterproof covering through correctly installed layers over a suitable deck. The base must be inspected and prepared first, because soft boards, uneven joints or poor falls will remain a problem beneath a smart new surface. We establish how water should move towards the gutter or outlet before completing the covering. Each layer is bonded securely, with laps formed in the correct direction and sequence. This makes felt a practical option to compare for garages, extensions and other flat roof structures where the layout suits a layered system.

Laps and perimeter details kept watertight

Once the substrate is ready, we install the felt build-up and work methodically across the roof. Edges, wall junctions, upstands and outlets all interrupt the main surface, so they need carefully formed pieces and secure bonding. We finish the perimeter and inspect the completed area for open laps or poorly seated details. Roof shape, access and drainage still influence the plan, even on a small structure. Felt may be familiar, but that is no excuse to treat the corners as an afterthought.
