Flat roof repairs and replacement in Cheadle
Walk down almost any street in Cheadle and you'll see flat roofs: on garages, side extensions, rear kitchens and porches. Plenty of them were covered in felt decades ago. Our flat roof repairs in Cheadle, along with full replacements, keep those spaces dry.
We fit EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and torch-on felt, and we'll recommend the system that suits your roof rather than pushing one product.

Flat roofing we install in Cheadle
EPDM rubber roofs
One-piece rubber membrane, ideal for straightforward garage and extension roofs.
GRP fibreglass
A seamless finish that handles outlets and awkward upstands well.
Torch-on felt
Multi-layer felt with a mineral finish, a proven choice for many roofs.
Repairs
Splits, blisters, lifted edges and leaking upstands fixed where the deck is still firm.
Cheadle's garages and extensions
Flat-roofed garages and extensions are a big part of Cheadle's housing, attached to inter-war semis and larger detached houses alike. Many were built with felt roofs that are now well past their best. Common problems include ponding, cracked felt at the edges and leaks where the flat roof meets the house wall. Fixing the abutment properly is just as important as the covering itself.
We work on flat roofs throughout SK8 Cheadle, Gatley, Heald Green, Cheadle Heath and Heaton Mersey. From our Manchester base it's around 6 miles to Cheadle, which keeps call-outs straightforward.
How we replace a flat roof
We strip the old covering and check the deck. Any rotten or soft boards are replaced, and where water has been pooling we can add firrings to improve the fall.
The new system goes on with proper upstands where it meets the wall, edge trims and a clean connection to the gutter. We finish by checking the drainage and clearing away all waste.
Cheadle flat roof questions
Which is better for a garage, EPDM or felt?
Both work well. EPDM goes on as a single sheet with few joins, while torch-on felt is a proven layered system. On a simple garage, either is a sound choice. We'll recommend one based on the roof's size, shape and outlets.
My extension leaks where it meets the house wall. What's causing it?
That junction, the abutment, needs a proper upstand and flashing into the wall. On older roofs it's often just a felt turn-up or mortar fillet that has cracked. We'll renew it properly as part of the repair or replacement.
Can a flat roof be converted to a pitched roof?
Sometimes, on a garage or extension. It's a bigger job and may need planning permission and building regulations approval. We'll talk through whether it's practical for your property.
Is it worth repairing an old felt roof?
If it's a small, localised fault and the rest is sound, yes. If the felt is cracked all over, blistered or the deck is soft, replacement is usually better value than repeated repairs.
Do you replace flat roofs on porches and bay windows?
Yes. Small flat roofs on porches and bays are common in Cheadle and often overlooked. We can re-cover them in GRP or EPDM and renew the lead flashing above.
Can you add insulation when replacing my extension roof?
Where the roof is over a living space, it's a good chance to improve insulation, and building regulations may apply. We'll explain what's involved for your extension.
