What flat roof work do we do in Bognor Regis?
Flat roof repairs
Older flat roofs in Bognor Regis, 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.
Balconies and roof terraces
Balcony membranes in Bognor Regis wear out like any roof, but faster where they are exposed to foot traffic, furniture and planters. Once the topcoat has worn through or cracked around posts and edges, a full re-waterproofing usually lasts longer than repeated patching.
Warm roof insulation upgrades
Landlords with flats and HMOs in Bognor Regis 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.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Bognor Regis?
In a large town like Bognor Regis flat roofs are mostly on 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions and bungalows with flat-roofed side extensions and dormers. The climate is part of the brief. 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 Bognor Regis?
Where approval is needed it goes to Arun District 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.
