What flat roof work do we do in Warwick?

Warm roof insulation upgrades

Landlords with flats and HMOs in Warwick sometimes hear from tenants about cold top-floor rooms and black mould on ceilings. A warm roof upgrade during re-roofing tackles both the heat loss and the condensation behind the mould, and helps keep the roof timbers dry.

Flats, HMOs and block roofs

When a roof over heated flats in Warwick 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.

Flat roof repairs

Older flat roofs in Warwick, as elsewhere, are often covered in felt that has lost its chippings and dried out. One leak on a roof like that is a warning sign. We repair it, check the rest of the covering and tell you honestly whether replacement belongs in next year's budget.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Warwick?

In a town like Warwick flat roofs are mostly on newer estates where the first extension roofs are now being replaced 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 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.

Where approval is needed it goes to Warwick District Council building control, or a registered building control approver.
