What flat roof work do we do in Brough?
Commercial flat roofing
Safety planning matters on commercial sites in Brough. Every job is planned under CDM, with a method statement, edge protection and covers over rooflights and fragile areas. If asbestos is found, a licensed specialist surveys and removes it before our work starts, so nobody is put at risk.
EPDM rubber roofing
If your Brough roof has been patched more than once and the felt is cracking or blistering, a full replacement in EPDM can be better value than another repair. The rubber stays flexible through hot summers and freezing nights, and the replacement is the right point to bring the insulation up to standard.
Liquid-applied roofing
If a flat roof in Brough is ageing but still dry, firmly bonded and on a sound deck, a reinforced liquid system can be applied over it. That avoids the cost and mess of a full strip-out, provided the moisture and adhesion checks at survey show the existing roof is fit to build on.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Brough?
In a town like Brough flat roofs are mostly on shops with flat-roofed rear stores below flats and 1960s and 1970s link-detached houses with flat-roofed garages and porches. Rain and wind decide how a flat roof is detailed. England averages roughly 870 mm of rain a year; the Pennine side of Yorkshire is wetter and windier than the east, so we specify for the site rather than the county. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Who approves flat roof work in Brough?
Where approval is needed it goes to East Riding of Yorkshire Council building control, or a registered building control approver. Replacing more than half of a roof over a heated room usually counts as renovating a thermal element, so it is insulated to current standards and notified to building control. How the rules work.
