What makes a good extension roof in Pembroke Dock?
Rooflights fitted after the roof was built are a frequent source of trouble in Pembroke Dock extensions. If the kerb was not formed properly or the membrane was simply sealed around the frame, leaks follow. Replacing the roof is the chance to rebuild every upstand to a proper standard.
Around Pembroke Dock, flat roofs are common on bungalows with flat-roofed side extensions and dormers and on newer estates where the first extension roofs are now being replaced. Wales averages roughly 1,460 mm of rain a year, among the wettest in Britain, so we design for steady run-off: proper falls, clear outlets and upstands well above the finished roof.

How long will my kitchen be disrupted by a new roof?
Most single-storey extension roofs are replaced in two to four working days, depending on size, rooflights and weather. The kitchen usually stays in use throughout.
Expect noise during the strip-out, and occasional dust through gaps around old rooflights, so it helps to cover worktops and move anything fragile off high shelves. We strip only what we can make weathertight by the end of each day. If a rooflight or lantern is being lifted and refitted, there may be a temporary cover over the opening for a short time. Resin systems smell while they cure, so keep the windows below the roof closed on that day.
What's included?
- Staged strip-out so the room stays weathertight
- New abutment upstand and flashing, plus rebuilt rooflight kerbs
- Falls set away from the house wall
- Building control handled where needed, and a written workmanship guarantee
Building regulations in Wales
The Welsh Approved Document L applies. Renovating more than half of a roof over a heated room means upgrading it to around 0.16 W/m²K where feasible, and new extension roofs are built to 0.13 W/m²K. Welsh Government guidance is that most re-roofing needs building control approval, so check whenever more than a quarter of a roof is replaced or repaired. We deal with the application as part of the job. More on the rules.

Can a sedum roof go on my extension?
Possibly, if the structure can carry the extra weight and the roof has suitable falls and drainage. We check the joists at survey before recommending it.
Why does my extension ceiling get damp in winter if the roof isn't leaking?
That is often condensation in a cold roof, where warm, moist air reaches the cold underside of the deck. A warm-roof replacement with a vapour control layer usually solves it.
