Which options suit homes in Brierley Hill?

Warm-roof insulation upgrade

Rigid insulation boards are laid on top of the deck, under the new membrane, so the timbers stay warm and the risk of condensation drops. A warm roof raises the roof level slightly, which affects upstands, door thresholds and window cills. We check those details at survey before recommending it.

Roof lights and outlets

Flat roof lanterns and flat glass roof lights can be fitted or replaced at the same time as a new roof. Outlets, gutters and edge trims are renewed so water runs away cleanly. Getting the fall right during the deck replacement is the best way to stop water pooling, which shortens a roof's life.

Your questions answered

Which lasts longer, EPDM or GRP?

Both last far longer than old felt when properly laid, and the quality of the installation matters more than the material. EPDM is flexible and handles movement well, while GRP gives a hard, walkable, joint-free finish that suits complex shapes. Manufacturers' expected lifespans vary by product, and the guarantee terms for your roof are set out in your quote.

What guarantee comes with a flat roof?

The membrane and related materials are covered by the manufacturer's guarantee, and the terms for your roof are set out in your quote. Some manufacturers' guarantees depend on the roof being installed to their specification and inspected, which is worth asking about. Keep the paperwork with your building regulations certificate.

Will I need permission from the council in Brierley Hill?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Brierley Hill is provided by Dudley Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
