What flat roof work do we do in Wellington?
EPDM rubber roofing
For landlords with property in Wellington, EPDM's low upkeep is the main draw: once the outlets are kept clear and the trims are checked once or twice a year, there is little else to do. It also goes down quickly on a small roof, which keeps disruption for tenants to a minimum.
Single-ply membrane roofing
Single-ply also works on an extension or garage in Wellington if you want a light, clean finish in a pale colour. On small roofs it is usually adhered, and while it can cost more than EPDM, it gives the same welded seams and details found on commercial roofs.
Emergency leak repairs
Businesses in Wellington can't trade properly with water dripping onto the shop floor or into an office. An emergency visit makes the roof temporarily weathertight, and the inspection that follows tells you whether a repair will hold or the roof needs replacing.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Wellington?
In a town like Wellington flat roofs are mostly on 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions and 1960s and 1970s link-detached houses with flat-roofed garages and porches. The climate is part of the brief. England averages roughly 870 mm of rain a year and the West Midlands sits close to that, so falls and outlets are the difference between a roof that drains and one that ponds. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Who approves flat roof work in Wellington?
Where approval is needed it goes to Telford & Wrekin 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.
