What flat roof work do we do in Clevedon?

EPDM rubber roofing

Where an older flat roof in Clevedon has a sound structure but a tired covering, EPDM is a straightforward upgrade: strip, check the deck, add a warm-roof build-up if the room below is heated, and bond the new membrane. It also makes a good base for a sedum green roof.

Flats, HMOs and block roofs

When a roof over heated flats in Clevedon is replaced, insulation rules usually apply. We design the warm-roof build-up towards the required standard where that is feasible and handle building control where it is needed, so the work is signed off properly and the top-floor flats are better insulated.

Commercial flat roofing

Businesses in Clevedon need a roofing contractor who arrives with a plan, not just a price. We put the system, build-up, phasing, access and payment terms in a fixed written quote, and keep each section of the roof watertight before the team leaves site, so trading is not put at risk.
