Flat Roofs & Pitched Roofs

Until relatively recently, flat roofs have had a terrible reputation in the UK and Ireland. As a result of our rainy weather, they have been a very poor choice historically as the constant standing water is a recipe for disaster when it comes to leaks which will lead to high repair and maintenance costs.

However, modern technologies now make flat roofs a realistic option, and their popularity across the British Isles and other rainy regions are skyrocketing.

Manufacturers now offer very generous guarantees on their flat roof products and when installed by the high standards of our Primrose roofing team.

Older flat roofs can cause homeowners all sorts of problems. They are prone to pooling and leaking and quite often just fail to remain wind and watertight. Be it your dormer window, garage, porch or even the garden shed; we offer great alternatives to this problematic roofing style.

This roofing system is the ideal replacement for failed flat roofs. As an approved contractor, we can install Firestone RubberCover™ EPDM membranes on both new and existing roofs.

Firestone RubberCover™ EPDM can overlay virtually any old roof provided the roof decking is sound, and the existing structure can carry the weight of the new roofing system.

This product is incredibly robust and hard-wearing while requiring little maintenance. With its strong resistance to alkaline rains, UV rays, and both high and low temperatures, you can expect the membrane to last more than 50 years.

Pitched roofs provide both a functional and traditional look which relies
on craftsmanship rather than modern technologies. Many people enjoy the homely feel that it gives, although this is just one of the many benefits that a pitched roof offers.

Firstly, pitched roofs have been the norm in countries where rain is common for the simple fact that water will quickly run off the downward angle. By channelling the water into a gutter system, you can avoid the issue of standing water on your roof.

Secondly, a pitched roof can provide a significant amount of space that can be used for anything from storage to extra living space. Many people opt to have a bedroom, ‘chill out’ area or even something more specific like a music room created from the space.

Even if you do not require the space, if you are looking to sell your property this will be a fantastic investment which can give a serious boost to the value of your property.

Fibreglass roofs have become a popular replacement for tradition ply and felt roofs. Not only are they very light, affordable, and super strong, but they are virtually maintenance-free saving even further on cost.

We offer a wide variety of colours so that you can pick a product which suits your property correctly. Additionally, we use a top-quality fibreglass product which comes with a guarantee of thirty years, securing your investment.
