Flat Roofing Install | Wickford, Essex
Our team recently completed a full flat roof replacement for a property in Wickford, Essex. The existing roof covering had deteriorated over time, with lifting felt, trapped moisture, and visible signs of wear that were putting the structure at risk of water ingress.
After a full inspection, we recommended a complete strip and renewal of the flat roof system to ensure long term durability and reliable weather protection.
Work Carried Out
Removal of Existing Flat Roof Covering
The old felt system was carefully stripped back to expose the timber decking beneath. Years of moisture exposure had left sections worn and vulnerable, so all defective materials were removed to create a solid foundation for the new installation.
Deck Preparation & Structural Checks
Once exposed, the timber deck was thoroughly inspected. Any compromised areas were replaced to ensure a strong, even surface ready for the new waterproofing system.
Installation of High Performance Underlay
A high quality underlay was fitted to provide an additional protective barrier and improve the overall lifespan of the flat roof.
New Torch-On Felt System Installed
We installed a durable, multi layer torch-on felt system designed for strength and long term performance. Each layer was heat bonded to create a fully sealed, watertight membrane across the entire roof area.
Edge Detailing & Secure Finishing
All perimeter edges were neatly sealed and secured to prevent wind uplift and water penetration. Careful attention was given to the detailing to ensure a clean finish and maximum protection against the elements.
The Transformation
This flat roofing project in Wickford has completely restored the integrity of the roof. By removing the failing materials and installing a modern torch-on felt system, the property now benefits from a robust, weather resistant surface built to withstand heavy rain and seasonal temperature changes.
