What flat roof work do we do in Bangor?

Commercial flat roofing

Owners and agents in Bangor can plan spending with a phased programme: urgent repairs now, then re-roofing section by section over one or more budget years. Each phase is priced separately in writing, and the survey and quote for replacement work are free, with no obligation to go ahead.

EPDM rubber roofing

EPDM makes sense for a property in Bangor when the roof is a straightforward shape, such as a garage or rear extension, and nobody needs to walk on it. A single sheet leaves few joins to fail, and because it is cold-applied there is no naked flame near timber fascias or a lived-in home.

GRP fibreglass roofing

GRP is a good fit in Bangor for roofs with awkward shapes, short runs of upstand and lots of corners, because every detail is laminated in place rather than cut and glued. Where a sheet membrane would need many joins, fibreglass forms one continuous skin across the whole roof.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Bangor?

In a large town like Bangor flat roofs are mostly on low-rise post-war blocks of flats and 1960s and 1970s link-detached houses with flat-roofed garages and porches. Weather matters on a flat roof. 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.
