Which flat roofs are common in County Tyrone?
Flat roofs in County Tyrone sit on 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions, terraced streets with flat-roofed rear kitchens and bathrooms and bungalows with flat-roofed side extensions and dormers. Northern Ireland averages roughly 1,150 mm of rain a year, spread over many wet days, so a roof that sheds water quickly to clear outlets lasts far longer than one that holds puddles. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Building control in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, renovating or replacing a roof over a heated room usually means meeting Technical Booklet F1, and building control should be contacted before work starts. Technical Booklet F1 sets roof insulation at 0.18 W/m²K when a roof over a heated room is renovated or newly built, where feasible. In County Tyrone the application goes to Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, Derry City and Strabane District Council and Mid Ulster District Council. More on the rules.
Is GRP or EPDM better on a dormer roof?
GRP fibreglass is often the first choice on a dormer, because it is laid as a liquid resin over a mat and forms neat, rigid edges, corners and drip details on a small roof. It cures to a hard surface that copes with occasional foot traffic during window cleaning or maintenance.
EPDM rubber works well on a plain rectangular dormer and can usually be laid as one sheet, with no field joins. Unlike GRP, it does not depend on resin curing conditions on the day. Torch-on felt can be used, but working a torch close to timber cladding, fascias and tiles needs extra care, so a cold-applied system is often chosen instead.
We recommend the system after surveying the dormer, its edges and how it meets the main roof.

Can you replace the lead on my dormer at the same time?
Yes, where lead forms part of the dormer abutment or cheek flashings, we include renewing it in the roof job.
Will insulating my dormer roof make it higher?
Yes, by the insulation thickness. We plan the build-up so the new roof still sits correctly under the main roof tiles at the back edge.
Why does my dormer leak at the back where it meets the roof?
That junction is the most common leak point, usually because the upstand or flashing under the tiles has failed. A proper re-roof rebuilds it.
