Expert Flat Roofing in Sherford, Devon

Most people we chat to have a bit of a horror story about an old felt roof that leaked after a few years. Thankfully, the technology has come a long way. Modern systems like GRP fibreglass and EPDM rubber are designed to be seamless, meaning there are no joints for water to sneak through. When we install a new roof in Sherford, we focus on durability. We are not just slapping on a layer of felt; we are creating a tough, weatherproof barrier that handles the South West climate without cracking or peeling. Have you noticed water sitting in pools on your current roof? That is what we call ponding, and it is exactly the kind of thing our modern installations are designed to prevent.

GRP, which is just a fancy name for fibreglass, is one of our most popular choices for Sherford residents. Why? Because it is incredibly tough. It is applied as a cold liquid that cures into a single, solid sheet. This means there are no seams and no need for naked flames on your property during the install. It is a fantastic option for balconies or walkways because it is sturdy enough to walk on, and it looks great too—usually finished in a sleek battleship grey that fits perfectly with the modern aesthetic of the South Hams. If you are looking for a roof that will easily last twenty-five years or more, GRP is hard to beat.

If your roof has a slightly unusual shape or you want something that stays flexible all year round, EPDM rubber might be the answer. We use high-quality membranes like Firestone that can expand and contract as the temperature changes—vital when we go from a frosty Devon morning to a sunny afternoon. It is an eco-friendly option that is famous for its longevity. Most homeowners love it because it is virtually maintenance-free. Imagine not having to worry about your garage or extension roof every time a storm rolls in from the coast. Does that sound like the kind of peace of mind you are looking for?
