Bowthorpe was largely built as a planned community from the 1970s onward and its housing estate architecture includes a significant number of flat-roofed garages and single-storey extensions that now need upgrading.
The estate layouts in Bowthorpe mean many properties have detached or semi-detached garages with original flat roofs that were built with a single layer of felt. Forty to fifty years on, these roofs are well beyond reasonable service life and often show as sagging deck boards as well as leaking membranes. We assess the decking condition at the time of survey and replace boards where necessary before fitting the new system.
GRP fibreglass is well suited to standard domestic garage roofs in Bowthorpe because of its rigidity and clean finish. For extensions used as habitable rooms where some degree of thermal movement is expected, EPDM rubber offers a more forgiving alternative. We can advise on the right system when we visit.
