Flat Roof Installation Process in Cumbria
Flat roofs are never entirely flat, they have a slight slope to allow water to drain effectively. Installing one may seem straightforward, but it requires careful planning, preparation, and precision to prevent leaks, water pooling, and long-term damage.
Roof Preparation
We ensure your roof deck, whether wood, concrete, or metal, is perfectly prepared. Proper preparation guarantees a strong foundation, optimal slope for drainage, and long-lasting insulation to protect your property from Cumbria’s unpredictable weather.
Insulation
Once the roof structure is ready, layers of insulation such as PIR or EPS boards are installed and sealed with a protective covering like bitumen, PVC, or EPDM. This keeps your property warm in winter, cool in summer, and helps save on energy costs.
Material Selection
We offer a wide range of materials for flat roof installations, including Built-Up Roofs (BUR), modified bitumen, PVC, and EPDM. Each has its own benefits, and our experts guide you to select the right material for your home or business.
The Build
Our skilled team installs your flat roof using advanced techniques, including laying the membrane, sealing seams, securing edges, and ensuring proper drainage. We also install finishing elements such as flashing and edge trims for a professional, polished look. Safety and quality are always our top priorities.
