What flat roof work do we do in Pencoed?
Garage roofs
Garage roofs in Pencoed take the weather head-on, often with no shelter from surrounding buildings. Wind lifts loose edge trims, frost works at cracked felt, and leaves block small gutters. When several of these faults appear together, a new roof with fresh edges is usually better value than chasing each one.
Single-ply membrane roofing
Single-ply often suits blocks and mixed-use buildings in Pencoed because no flame is used on the roof, which can make work around residents and businesses easier to plan. Hot-air welding still needs care, but the fire risk is lower than with torch-on.
GRP fibreglass roofing
GRP is a good choice in Pencoed when the roof will be seen or used: a dormer visible from the street, an extension overlooked by upstairs windows, or a roof that needs access for cleaning or maintenance. The hard, jointless finish and moulded trims give a neat result that copes with occasional foot traffic.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Pencoed?
In a town like Pencoed flat roofs are mostly on 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions and shops with flat-roofed rear stores below flats. The climate is part of the brief. Wales averages roughly 1,460 mm of rain a year, among the wettest in Britain, so we design for steady run-off: proper falls, clear outlets and upstands well above the finished roof. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Who approves flat roof work in Pencoed?
Where approval is needed it goes to Bridgend County Borough Council building control, or a registered building control approver. Welsh guidance is that most re-roofing needs building control approval, so it's worth checking whenever more than a quarter of a roof is replaced or repaired. How the rules work.
