Flat roof installation and replacement in Colchester
Flat roof failing on a garage, extension, dormer or commercial unit in Colchester? Stormproof Roofing installs and replaces flat roofs across Colchester (CO1-CO7) using EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, torch-on felt and single-ply membrane. Wivenhoe, Stanway, West Bergholt and Tiptree are included within our CO postcode coverage and we visit regularly for roof repairs and new roof installations. Postcodes CO1 through CO7 fall within our extended same-day radius, with Mersea Island and Tiptree covered same week. Most domestic flat roofs over a garage or extension are best served by EPDM, a one-piece membrane with a 25+ year life. For larger commercial spans we more often specify single-ply or hot-melt. We'll recommend the right system based on the building, not on what we have left in the van.
Choosing the right flat roof system
EPDM is our default for most Colchester domestic flat roofs: tough, single-piece, low maintenance, easy to detail at upstands and edges. GRP fibreglass works well for walk-on balconies and small commercial spans. Torch-on felt is still a cost-effective option on traditional garages where appearance matters less than budget. Single-ply membrane suits larger commercial roofs. We'll talk you through the trade-offs in plain English.

Warm roof or cold roof, and why it matters
Most flat-roof failures in Colchester aren't the membrane, they're the build-up underneath: trapped moisture, no vapour control, condensation behind the deck. We assess the existing build-up before quoting and will recommend warm-roof or cold-roof construction based on insulation goals, headroom and condensation risk. The membrane is only as good as the roof it's protecting.
