What flat roof work do we do in Weston-super-Mare?

Balconies and roof terraces

Owners of flats in Weston-super-Mare sometimes find that a neighbour's balcony is leaking into their home. Where a balcony serves one flat but sits over another, the repair needs proper waterproofing and drainage, and a clear written specification helps everyone involved agree the work.

Flat roof surveys and leak tracing

Landlords and managing agents in Weston-super-Mare often need a written record of a roof's condition, for budgeting, for leaseholders, or to show a problem has been looked at properly. A survey report gives them a clear basis for deciding when to repair and when to replace.

EPDM rubber roofing

Rubber is a sensible pick in Weston-super-Mare where a roof sits close to bedrooms or a kitchen and you would rather avoid hot works. It suits porches, bays and dormers too, where the small area means a single sheet can cover the whole roof with no joins at all.
