Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best flat roof system in the UK?
The three most popular flat roof systems in the UK are EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, and torch-on felt. EPDM and GRP offer the longest lifespan (30–50 years) and are ideal for garages, extensions, and dormer roofs. We assess your property and budget to recommend the best option.
How long does a flat roof last?
A well-installed GRP fibreglass or EPDM rubber flat roof can last 30 to 50 years with minimal maintenance. Traditional felt flat roofs have a shorter lifespan of around 10 to 20 years. The longevity depends on the materials used, quality of installation, and ongoing maintenance.
How much does a flat roof replacement cost per square metre?
Flat roof replacement in the UK typically costs between £80 and £120 per square metre for felt, £90 to £140 for EPDM, and £100 to £150 for GRP fibreglass. Final costs depend on access, insulation requirements, and the condition of the existing deck.
Does a flat roof need planning permission?
In most cases, replacing a flat roof like-for-like does not require planning permission as it falls under permitted development. However, if you are raising the roof height, changing the shape, or the property is in a conservation area, you may need to check with your local council.
