What flat roof work do we do in Craigavon?

Extension and kitchen roofs

Condensation drives some replacements in Craigavon. Older extension roofs were often built cold, with insulation between the joists and no reliable vapour control. Warm air from the kitchen reaches the cold deck, moisture builds up and the timber suffers. A warm roof deals with the cause, not just the stain.

Warm roof insulation upgrades

Many flat-roofed extensions and dormers in Craigavon were built with little or no insulation, or with a cold roof that was never properly ventilated. Those rooms are often hard to heat in winter and can suffer condensation, mould and, in time, a rotten deck.

Green and sedum roofs

Homeowners in Craigavon building a new extension may find a green roof can help with a planning application, as some councils encourage them for biodiversity and slower rainwater run-off. It is worth raising early with your designer, before the roof structure is drawn up, so the joists can be sized for the extra weight.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Craigavon?

In a large town like Craigavon flat roofs are mostly on newer estates where the first extension roofs are now being replaced and bungalows with flat-roofed side extensions and dormers. The climate is part of the brief. Northern Ireland averages roughly 1,150 mm of rain a year, spread over many wet days, so a roof that sheds water quickly to clear outlets lasts far longer than one that holds puddles. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.

Where approval is needed it goes to Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council building control.
