Our Flat Roof Services

GRP Flat Roofs (Glass Reinforced Plastic)

GRP flat roofs, also known commonly as fibreglass flat roofs, are one of the most widely used flat roofing systems in the UK. GRP is a seamless, highly durable option that is resistant to extreme weather, requires minimal maintenance, and provides a sleek, modern finish.

Single Ply Membrane Roofing

Perfect for both residential and commercial projects, single-ply membranes are lightweight, flexible, and provide excellent thermal insulation. They are known for their strength and ease of installation, making them a popular choice for energy-efficient, modern buildings.

Asphalt Roofs

Asphalt roofing offers an extremely versatile and waterproof roofing material, making it a great choice for homes in the UK. Our team of experienced roofers are fully qualified to work with asphalt roofing.

EPDM Rubber Roof

EPDM rubber roofing offers a long-lasting, waterproof and energy-efficient roofing option, and is virtually maintenance-free. It also requires no heat or welding meaning it’s safer and quicker than other flat roofing materials.

Lead Flat Roofing

For projects requiring a traditional, high-end finish, lead roofing is the best choice. It offers exceptional longevity and is perfect for historic or bespoke properties, providing a timeless, durable solution.

Felt Roofing

Felt is a tried and tested flat roof option that offers fire and water resistance, holding up well in rain, strong winds, and UV Rays. We commonly use felt for flat roofs on commercial and domestic properties.

Flat Roof Repairs

Flat roofs, like all roofs, need occasional repairs. Whatever the material your flat roof is made from, we can help. From small flat roof repairs that need sorting before they become a problem, to large-scale roof repairs.

The Benefits of Flat Roofs

long lasting icon

Long-lasting

EPDM and GRP are highly durable and can last for up to 30 years if properly installed and maintained. Both are resistant to UK weather, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. Additionally, we offer lead roofing, which can last for up to 100 years!
tiles icon

Flexibility

Materials like EDPM and GRP offer flexible flat roofing solutions, making them ideal for flat roofs with low slopes. They can handle extreme temperature changes without cracking or becoming brittle, and certain grades can be safe to walk on.
Low Maintenance icon

Low Maintenance

Materials like asphalt, felt, and lead offer a low-maintenance flat roofing option with lifespans from 30 years to 100! With our Empire Roofing guarantee, any issues or problems you encounter within the first 5 - 10 years can be rectified at no cost!
Fire Resistant icon

Easy to install

Flat roof materials like fibreglass are known for their ease of installation, meaning you spend less time having your roof built, and it costs less! Our roofing services come with a fully insured guarantee. With the volatility of the UK weather and something as important as the roof over your head, we don’t recommend taking chances.
Energy Efficient icon

Energy Efficient

Materials like fibreglass can be installed with added insulation, and other materials such as EPDM rubber are available in lighter colours. Our flat roofs offer an energy-efficient and cost-effective option that will keep your energy bills low in summer and winter!
Recyclable icon

Eco-Friendly and Recyclable

Because of the long life expectancy of the materials we offer for flat roofs, the impact on the environment is minimal. This longevity also reduces the need for subsequent roofing repairs.

    Frequently Asked Flat Roofing Questions

    How much do flat roofs cost?

    Flat roofs can cost anywhere from £1,000 to £5,000, depending on the size of the roof, the type of roof you are looking for (conservatory, garage, main roof, etc.) and the material you choose.

    For an accurate estimate of the cost of your new flat roof or flat roof extension, get in touch today for a free, no-obligation quote.

    How long do flat roofs last?

    Flat roofs can last between 25 - 100 years, depending on the material you use to build it and how often it is maintained. The average lifespan on a flat roof is around 30 years, for flat roofs made from felt, asphalt, and some single-ply membranes. Fibreglass roofs can last up to 50 years, and lead roofs can last up to 100 years when properly installed and maintained!

    What is the best material for a flat roof?

    The best material for your flat roof depends on your needs and your budget.

    Roof materials like felt offer the most budget-friendly option, being significantly cheaper than some of the other flat roofing options we have available.

    Meanwhile, we have lead roofing, which is the most expensive but the most durable and long-lasting, meaning you may not need to replace it in your lifetime! However, due to its weight, it also needs appropriate support.

    If you’re unsure at all about the best material for your flat roof, we strongly recommend getting in touch with our team here. Whether you decide to work with us at Empire Roofing or not, we can give you expert advice on which material is the best choice for you.
