What flat roof work do we do in Fulwood?

Flat roof replacement

A mineral felt roof laid decades ago may still look intact from the ground in Fulwood, yet have lost its chippings, cracked at the laps and pulled away at the upstands. Those faults let water track under the covering, so by the time a ceiling stain appears, the deck has often been wet for some time.

Flat roof surveys and leak tracing

Businesses in Fulwood with a flat-roofed building can't plan maintenance around guesswork. A survey sets out what needs doing now, what can wait and roughly what each item will cost, so the work can be scheduled with as little disruption as possible.

Liquid-applied roofing

Choose liquid roofing in Fulwood when the shape of the roof makes sheet materials awkward: curved edges, small dormers with many corners, or a mix of levels joined by short upstands. Each detail is reinforced in the same material as the main area, so the whole roof is continuous.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Fulwood?

In a town like Fulwood flat roofs are mostly on terraced streets with flat-roofed rear kitchens and bathrooms and 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions. 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 Fulwood?

Where approval is needed it goes to Sheffield City 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.
