What flat roof work do we do in Bromsgrove?

EPDM rubber roofing

EPDM makes sense for a property in Bromsgrove when the roof is a straightforward shape, such as a garage or rear extension, and nobody needs to walk on it. A single sheet leaves few joins to fail, and because it is cold-applied there is no naked flame near timber fascias or a lived-in home.

Garage roofs

A garage in Bromsgrove that is becoming a workshop, gym or home office is a good reason to replace its roof. That is the moment to think about insulation and a warm-roof build-up, so the roof does not have to be stripped again when the space is heated.

Liquid-applied roofing

Liquid roofing suits a roof in Bromsgrove that is full of penetrations, such as soil pipes, vents, aerial brackets and rooflights, because the liquid flows around each one and cures into a single skin. There are no cut pieces or taped corners to work loose over time.

What flat roofs are typical in and around Bromsgrove?

In a town like Bromsgrove flat roofs are mostly on 1960s and 1970s link-detached houses with flat-roofed garages and porches and shops with flat-roofed rear stores below flats. Weather matters on a flat roof. 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 Bromsgrove District Council building control, or a registered building control approver.
