Types Of Flat Roofing
Cold works techniques are easier but not suitable for uneven surfaces or when being applied in cold conditions. Hot works techniques use either bitumen to bond and seal layers of felt or a gas torch to heat the felt and attach it to the roof.
There is a wide range of materials available to create your new flat roof and which one you require will come down to personal preference. There isn’t an industry consensus on what roofing materials yield the best results therefore feel free to choose which you feel is the best fit for your property.
The most important thing to think about when choosing the material for your flat roofing is the price and the guarantee provided by the manufacturer. Here at Rainshield Roofing & Building LTD , we can offer you up to 25 years guarantee on our flat roofs to ensure longevity.
It’s also important to think about the material performance, the complexity of the structure and the overall aesthetic appeal it’ll bring.
Torch-On Felt Flat Roofing
Torch-on Felt covering consists of two or three layers of bitumen sheet, which is applied to the roof using a gas torch. This is a very common, cost-effective option.
One of the main advantages of using torch-on felt to cover a flat roof is its malleability and multi-layering which really helps it stand up well to foot traffic and general weathering.
GRP/Fibreglass Flat Roofing
GRP/fibreglass is an extremely versatile option for flat roofing, which works well on any roof, especially ones that are not of standard shape or size. It’s lightweight, yet strong and durable and can be excellent for domestic and commercial buildings that need to withstand footfall.
What are the Advantages of Choosing a Flat Roof?
Flat roofs are a popular choice for three distinct reasons. Their aesthetic, price-point and low maintenance.
- Design: Flat Roofs are a great choice for both small and large structures, most commonly being used on extensions, garages, airports and supermarkets. Their highly waterproof membranes will also protect the structure. A flat roof creates more space inside the structure compared to pitch roofing helping you to make the most out of the dimensions of a building of any size.
- Cost: When installing a flat roof, fewer materials will generally be used, making it considerably cheaper to install than a pitched roof. The installation time will also be significantly shorter, with smaller buildings being completed in just a couple of days.
- Low Maintenance: A flat roof will typically be a lot easier to inspect and repair than a pitched roof.
