- Rotten decking is only found once the old roof is stripped, and any repair is agreed in writing first.
- The target U-value for a renovated roof is 0.16 W/m²K, where that's practical.
- Replacing a flat roof's membrane over more than half the roof normally means upgrading its insulation.

Options to consider in Warwick
EPDM rubber roof
A single sheet of synthetic rubber bonded to the deck, often in one piece with no joints on smaller roofs. EPDM handles temperature changes well, is quick to lay and needs little maintenance. It's a good all-round choice for garages and extensions, though it has a plain black finish and needs care around complex details.
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.

Flat roofing in Warwick: common questions
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.
Do you cover Warwick?
Yes. Warwick (CV34) is about 24 miles from our West Bromwich base and inside the area we cover. Call 0800 088 6248 or send the form on this page to book a free survey.
Why does my flat roof leak when the surface looks fine?
Most leaks start at the edges, joints, outlets or where the roof meets a wall, not in the open middle of the roof. Water can also travel along the deck before it shows on the ceiling, so the stain may be a long way from the actual entry point. We check these details at survey before suggesting a repair or replacement.
Who approves flat roofing in Warwick?
You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Warwick is provided by Warwick District Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
