Built up flat roofing
Torch on membranes
A built up felt roof is an established method of weather proofing roofs, normally flat roofs, by using more than one layer of bituminous roofing felt which is bonded to the previous layer. Three layers are usually laid, the first layer a vented layer of perforated felt which is not bonded to the decking so that the decking can move without damaging the felt roof. The second layer is a fully bonded underlay and then installing any gutter drips and wall flashings, and finally finished with a mineral fully bonded cap sheet which is laid on top to protect the felt from the elements which is available in various colours.
There are many grades of roofing felt, depending on the system chosen will depend on the length of the guarantee. All products and systems can be discussed in the early quoting stages.
