Flat Roofing FAQs
EPDM roofs offer a wealth of benefits that traditional roofing materials don’t offer. The main benefits are that they’re incredibly long lasting, extremely easy to maintain and environmentally friendly. EPDM is made from recycled rubber and materials and it repels moss and algae.
A GRP Flat Roof, or fibreglass roofing as it’s also known, is one of the most popular flat roofing solutions in the UK. GRP stands for Glass Reinforced Polyester, a composite material formed by strengthening plastic with fine fibres made of glass.
Costs will vary depending on the type of flat roof, the size of your roof, the thickness of the rubber/felt/fibreglass you want to use, how accessible your roof is and the length of time it may take. Contact us and we will be happy to offer a free site survey and quote for your flat roof.
A professionally laid GRP fibreglass roof from 3 Counties Roofing & Building Ltd will last for at least 30 years with no measurable deterioration.
Because an EPDM roof is made from rubber, the material is not affected by the sun’s UV rays. It is also highly resistant to snow, rain, wind and impacts. If maintained properly a rubber roof can last more than 50 years.
Initially GRP fibreglass roofing costs more than felt, however, the long-term benefits will be obvious as it will outperform the felt roof. You won’t have to worry about replacing it again for a very long time.
Although fibreglass roofs are superior and much more resistant to heat, moisture, water, and fire than alternative flat roofing materials meaning that they need much less maintenance as a result, they still require a level of maintenance and cleaning occasionally.
GRP/Fibreglass is a newer roofing system that lends itself best to flat roofing but is also suitable for pitched roofs in some applications. Fibreglass is more durable than felt and stronger too. A fibreglass roof will last for more than 20 years and it’s less likely than felt to develop a fault.
Specialised EPDM rubber can be used on low pitched roofs. Our installers are experts in bonding the rubber membrane on low pitched roofs. We have successfully installed many EPDM rubber roofs onto roofs that weren’t entirely flat.
An EPDM rubber roof is an exceptionally durable roof made from synthetic rubber roofing membrane. An EPDM roof is usually fully adhered onto the flat surface and has a proven life expectancy of 50 years or more.
