Which flat roofs are common in Perth and Kinross?

Flat roofs in Perth and Kinross sit on bungalows with flat-roofed side extensions and dormers, 1960s and 1970s link-detached houses with flat-roofed garages and porches and lock-up garage blocks on estates. Scotland averages roughly 1,570 mm of rain a year, with the west far wetter than the east, so drainage, falls and wind uplift are part of every specification we write. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.

Building standards in Scotland

In Scotland a building warrant is usually needed for alterations, structural work and new roofs; like-for-like repairs to a covering can be exempt. Section 6 of the technical handbooks sets a domestic roof benchmark of 0.12 W/m²K, applied as far as reasonably practicable on an existing roof. In Perth and Kinross the application goes to Perth and Kinross Council (building standards). More on the rules.

Which system should I replace my flat roof with?

The right system depends on the roof's size, shape, use and number of details, so no single material suits every roof. These are the usual starting points:

  • EPDM rubber suits simple, rectangular roofs, where one sheet can often cover the area with few or no joins.
  • GRP fibreglass suits roofs with many corners, rooflights or edges, and gives a rigid surface for occasional maintenance traffic.
  • Torch-on felt is a layered, hard-wearing system that keeps the cost down on larger or plain roofs.
  • Liquid-applied systems handle awkward details and can overlay a sound existing surface.
  • Single-ply and mastic asphalt are more usual on commercial roofs, blocks and terraces.

We recommend a system at survey and explain why. Our EPDM vs GRP vs felt guide sets out the trade-offs if you want to compare first.
