Flat roofs on garages, extensions and commercial buildings need the right system from the outset - poor installation is the most common reason they fail early. We install and repair flat roofs across Cromer using GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber and felt systems, all with long-term guarantees.

Flat roofs have a bad reputation, and it's largely undeserved - most of the problems people associate with them come from outdated felt systems or poor installation, not the concept itself. Modern flat roofing systems, installed correctly, are reliable, low-maintenance and genuinely long-lasting.
We work with three main flat roofing systems: GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber membrane and reinforced felt. GRP is our most commonly specified system for domestic extensions and garage roofs in Cromer - it's seamless, highly resistant to ponding water, and carries a 25-year product guarantee. EPDM is an excellent choice for larger roof areas or roofs with more complex geometry, and modern reinforced felt systems are a cost-effective option where budget is the primary concern. We'll explain the differences and match the system to your building and budget.
Flat roofing looks straightforward but the details are what determine whether it lasts. Falls need to be set correctly so water runs to the outlet rather than pooling at the low point. Upstand heights, edge trims and penetrations - for pipes, rooflights or AC units - all need to be detailed properly, or that's where water will find a way in. A flat roof installed without proper attention to these points will start leaking within a few years regardless of how good the membrane itself is.
We survey the existing deck or new structure before specifying a system, and we install all flat roofs to current BS 6229 standards. New flat roof installations typically take one to three days depending on size and complexity. All our flat roof installations come with a workmanship guarantee alongside the manufacturer product warranty.
Flat roofs in Cromer typically cost between £70 and £120 per square metre installed, depending on the system chosen and access requirements.
