A rubber roof specialist in York, and more
Plenty of York homeowners come to us looking for a rubber roof specialist in York after an old felt roof has finally given up. We install and repair EPDM rubber roofs regularly, along with GRP fibreglass and torch-on felt, and we'll recommend whichever suits your roof best.
Flat roofs typically fail at the edges and upstands, where the membrane meets walls and windows, or where water ponds on a sagging deck. Cracked, blistered or patched felt is a sign the roof is near the end.
Surveys are free, there are no hidden fees, and all work is guaranteed.

Flat roofs on York homes
York's post-war and modern estates in Acomb, Haxby, Huntington and Dringhouses have many flat-roofed garages, porches and rear extensions. Victorian terraces in Clifton and Heworth often have flat-roofed back additions or dormers. In the conservation areas of central York, flat roofs are usually hidden behind parapets or at the rear, but the edge details still need care, and new dormers should be checked with City of York Council.
We work on flat roofs across YO1, YO10, YO23, YO24, YO26, YO30, YO31 and YO32, including Fulford, and nearby Selby and Wetherby. York is around 17 miles from our North Yorkshire office in Norton, Malton, and is covered by our Yorkshire team.
How we replace a flat roof
We strip the old covering and check the deck beneath. Wet or rotten boards are replaced, and the fall is improved if water has been ponding. The new membrane is then laid, with trims, upstands and flashings finished to suit the walls and any rooflights.
Most domestic flat roofs are completed in a day or two in reasonable weather. You'll get a written quote first, setting out the system, the work and the price.
Rubber and flat roof questions in York
Why choose EPDM rubber for a flat roof?
EPDM is laid as one sheet with no joints across the main area, so there are fewer places for water to get in. It stays flexible in cold weather and copes with temperature changes. It's a good fit for most extensions, dormers and garages.
Can my flat roof be repaired rather than replaced?
If the problem is a single split, a lifted edge or a failed upstand on an otherwise sound roof, a repair is fine. If the covering is cracked all over or the deck is soft, replacement is better value. We'll show you what we find.
Can you add insulation to my extension roof?
Yes. When replacing a flat roof over a habitable room, insulation can be added and may be required by building regulations. We'll explain the options and how they affect the roof height and trims.
Is GRP suitable for a balcony or walkway?
GRP is rigid and hard-wearing, so it's often used where a roof is walked on. For balconies, the design of the deck and drainage matters, so we'll survey and advise on what's suitable.
Do you install rooflights in flat roofs?
We can fit rooflights as part of a flat roof replacement, with proper upstands and flashings. Planning may be needed in some situations, particularly in conservation areas.
Do you work on commercial flat roofs in York?
Yes. We repair and replace flat roofs on shops, offices, guest houses, units and blocks of flats. We'll survey the roof and drainage and give you a written quote.
