Which flat roofs are common in East Riding of Yorkshire?
Flat roofs in East Riding of Yorkshire sit on terraced streets with flat-roofed rear kitchens and bathrooms, 1930s semis with flat-roofed garages and kitchen extensions and newer estates where the first extension roofs are now being replaced. England averages roughly 870 mm of rain a year; the Pennine side of Yorkshire is wetter and windier than the east, so we specify for the site rather than the county. Approximate 1991–2020 regional averages based on Met Office data.
Building regulations in England
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. Renovated roofs over heated rooms are insulated to around 0.16 W/m²K where that's feasible, and new extension roofs are built to 0.15 W/m²K. In East Riding of Yorkshire the application goes to Hull City Council and East Riding of Yorkshire Council. More on the rules.
How does Section 20 consultation affect roof works?
In England and Wales, if leaseholders pay for roof works through the service charge and any one leaseholder's share will be over the statutory threshold, the freeholder or managing agent must consult them under Section 20 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 before the work is contracted.
The consultation is run by the freeholder or agent, not by us. It usually involves a notice of intention and then estimates shared with leaseholders, each stage with time for comments, and missing a step can limit what can be recovered through the service charge. Take advice from your agent or a specialist adviser if you are unsure; we don't give legal advice.
What we provide is an itemised written quote that is easy to share and compare: system and build-up, roof area, scaffold and access, insulation, outlets, upstands and trims, waste disposal, provisional sums for hidden defects such as deck repairs, and VAT shown clearly. We can price more than one system on the same scope, so leaseholders are comparing like with like.
How do you manage access and residents during the work?
We agree an access and communication plan with the agent or freeholder before the scaffold goes up, so residents know what is happening and when.
That usually covers notices in the common parts and letters to each flat, scaffold and skip positions, keeping entrances, escape routes and bin stores clear, working hours, securing the scaffold out of hours, and a named contact for questions. If we need to look at a ceiling inside a top-floor flat, we arrange access through the agent or landlord.
Occupied blocks are re-roofed in phases, with each section watertight before the team leaves site, which also lets a larger roof be spread over more than one service charge year. Hot works near windows, vents and escape routes are tightly controlled, or avoided altogether with cold-applied systems.

Yes. We replace and repair flat roofs on HMOs and converted flats, arrange access with tenants through the landlord or agent, and keep escape routes and entrances clear while we work.
Do you run the Section 20 consultation?
No. The freeholder or managing agent runs the consultation; we provide itemised written quotes that can be shared with leaseholders and answer technical questions passed on through the agent.
Does a block roof replacement need building control?
Usually, yes. Re-covering more than half of a roof over heated flats normally triggers the thermal element rules, which bring insulation and approval requirements, and we handle building control or building standards where it is needed.
