Flat Roof Repairs in Farnborough

Flat roofs tell you when something is wrong in a very particular way. A pitched roof shows a slipped tile; a flat roof shows a stain on the ceiling of the room below, often days after the rain that caused it, because water has travelled sideways through the build-up before finding a way in.

That is why a flat roof repair has to start with the details rather than the middle of the roof. We trace the entry point, check the condition of the deck and insulation beneath, and repair what has actually failed. If the roof is past the point where repairs make sense, we will say so — a roof that needs patching every winter is cheaper to replace.

What it involves

What our flat roof repairs work covers

  • Tracing the true point of water entry, which is rarely where the damp appears inside.
  • Inspecting the deck and insulation to confirm the rest of the roof is sound enough to repair.
  • Repairing splits, blisters and open joints in felt, EPDM and GRP coverings.
  • Re-dressing or renewing upstands, trims, drips and kerbs at the perimeter.
  • Re-bedding or resealing outlets, rainwater outlets and rooflight kerbs.
  • Restoring falls where local ponding has developed, where the build-up allows.

Problems customers bring to us

  • A leak that reappears in the same ceiling corner every time it rains hard.
  • Water pooling on the roof for days after rainfall.
  • Splits or crazing spreading across an ageing felt surface.
  • Joints at the wall junction or rooflight that keep opening up.
  • Previous patches that have lifted or gone brittle.
  • A soft, springy deck underfoot near the edge of the roof.

Signs the work may be needed

  • Damp patches on the ceiling of the room below that outlast the rain.
  • Gravel or mineral chippings gathering in the gutter.
  • Trims or flashings lifting visibly at the edges.
  • A musty smell in the room below during damp weather.
  • Blistered or rippled areas appearing on the surface.

Our process

How the job runs, start to finish

  1. Step 1

    Trace the leak

    We work from the internal damp back up to the point of entry, checking every detail on the way.

  2. Step 2

    Check the deck

    We confirm the deck and insulation are dry and sound — the difference between a repair and a replacement.

  3. Step 3

    Written quotation

    A clear price for the repair, or an honest recommendation for replacement if that is the better option.

  4. Step 4

    Repair and check

    The repair is completed with matched materials and tested, and we explain how to keep an eye on the roof.

Local context

Flat Roof Repairs in Farnborough

Garage roofs and rear extensions are common across Farnborough's post-war estates, and most were covered in felt with almost no fall. Ponding is the norm rather than the exception, which is why the repairs we are called to usually involve the edges and outlets rather than the field of the roof.

FAQs

Flat Roof Repairs questions

Not always. If the deck is saturated or the covering has failed in several places, replacement is the more economical answer. We test and tell you which applies before quoting.
