What flat roof work do we do in Reigate?
EPDM rubber roofing
Where an older flat roof in Reigate 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.
Emergency leak repairs
Businesses in Reigate 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.
Flat roof surveys and leak tracing
Older extensions and garages in Reigate frequently have felt roofs that have been patched several times. Before paying for another repair, many owners want to know whether the roof has much life left. That is exactly the question a condition survey answers.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Reigate?
In a town like Reigate flat roofs are mostly on 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions and terraced streets with flat-roofed rear kitchens and bathrooms. Weather matters on a flat roof. Much of the South East sits in the drier Thames catchment at roughly 730 mm of rain a year, so the usual failures are at joints, upstands and outlets rather than from sheer volume of rain. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Who approves flat roof work in Reigate?
Where approval is needed it goes to Reigate and Banstead Borough 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.
