Flat Roofing Keynsham

Keynsham's interwar and postwar semis often have flat roofs on rear extensions, dormers and garages, and many of those coverings are tired old felt. We repair and replace flat roofs across Keynsham, fitting one-piece EPDM rubber for a seamless, cold-fitted finish.

We have been roofing since 1993 and Keynsham is part of our main patch. Every job comes with a free survey, a fixed price in writing and a ten year guarantee, and you pay nothing until you are happy.

How Much Does a Flat Roof Cost in Keynsham?

The cost of a flat roof in Keynsham depends on its size, its condition and whether it needs a repair or full replacement.

The main things that affect the price are:

  • The size of the flat roof
  • Whether it needs a repair or a full replacement
  • The condition of the deck under the old covering
  • The height of the roof and the access needed
  • The edges, upstands and joins where the roof meets the walls
  • Any new trims needed
  • The volume of old covering and waste to take away
  • Access on Keynsham's steeper streets and to rear extensions

Every job is priced after a free survey, and you get a clear, fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Flat Roof Repairs in Keynsham

We trace leaks on Keynsham flat roofs, from splits in the covering to failed joints at the wall, and repair them where the rest of the roof is sound.

One-Piece EPDM Rubber Roofs

EPDM is a single rubber sheet bonded down, with no seams across the roof. It is fitted cold with no naked flame, does not go brittle in the sun like felt, and has a life expectancy of up to 50 years when properly laid.

Extensions, Dormers and Porches

Rear extensions and dormers on Keynsham semis usually have flat roofs, and the join with the house is a common leak point. We finish every edge and upstand properly.

Flat Roof Questions

Anything not covered here, just ask. We would rather answer a question now than have you guess.

0117 905 9458

How long does a flat roof last?

It depends on the covering and how well it was laid. A properly laid one-piece EPDM rubber roof has a life expectancy of up to 50 years. Felt goes brittle in the sun, which is why so many older felt roofs are now failing.

Should I repair or replace my flat roof?

We will tell you honestly at the survey. A single split or a failed edge on an otherwise sound roof is a repair. If the covering has failed in several places, or the deck underneath has gone soft, replacement is usually better value.

Do you use a naked flame?

No. EPDM rubber is fitted cold, so there is no torch on your roof and none of the fire risk that comes with felt.

Do I need planning permission for a new flat roof?

Replacing a roof like for like normally counts as repair and maintenance, so permission is not usually needed. Conservation areas and listed buildings are the exception, and we will flag it at survey if we think it applies to you.

What guarantee do I get?

Every job carries a ten year guarantee, which we give you in writing when we sign the work off.

Do I have to pay anything up front?

No. You get a full written estimate before we start, and you only pay once the job is finished and you are satisfied with it.

Do you charge for a quote?

No. Surveys and quotes are free and there is no obligation. You get a clear written price before any work starts.

How much does a flat roof cost?

It depends on the size of the roof, whether it needs a repair or a replacement, and the condition of the deck. The cost section above sets out the main factors, or call us for a free survey and a fixed written price.
