What flat roof work do we do in Crieff?

GRP fibreglass roofing

If a flat roof in Crieff has already been patched with fibreglass that keeps cracking, a full GRP replacement on a new, properly fixed deck often solves the problem. Cracks usually come from movement in the boards beneath, so renewing the deck and reinforcing the joints deals with the cause.

Torch-on felt roofing

Where a flat roof in Crieff already has a felt covering and the building owner wants like-for-like, torch-on is the natural replacement. The old roof is stripped, the deck checked and the new layers laid, often with warm-roof insulation added when the space below is heated.

Extension and kitchen roofs

Ponding against the house wall is a common reason for replacing an extension roof in Crieff. When the deck dips near the wall or the fall runs the wrong way, water sits against the abutment and eventually gets in. A new roof with corrected falls moves the water to the gutter.
