A clear diagnosis first
A practical approach to flat roof repair and replacement in Findon
Flat roofs around Findon commonly cover rear extensions, garages, porches and dormers. A damp patch can originate at a wall upstand, outlet, edge trim or rooflight rather than in the open field of the covering. We inspect the shape and drainage of the whole roof before deciding whether a local repair, a carefully prepared overlay or a full strip and replacement is the sensible option.
Properties close to the Downs can experience driving rain, open exposure and debris from mature trees. Those conditions make falls and outlets particularly important: a sound membrane can still be placed under avoidable stress if water is allowed to sit against an abutment or collect around a restricted outlet.
The work
Choosing a flat-roof solution in Findon
Three-layer felt
A robust built-up felt specification can suit extensions and garages when the deck and perimeter details are prepared correctly.
GRP fibreglass
GRP can provide a seamless rigid finish, particularly on straightforward roofs with a sound, appropriately detailed deck.
Liquid waterproofing
Reinforced liquid systems can help around awkward shapes and junctions, subject to substrate condition and manufacturer requirements.
Targeted repairs
A repair is quoted where the defect is sufficiently localised and the surrounding roof remains serviceable; we will not present a patch as a new roof.
Local considerations
Drainage matters as much as the covering
On Findon extensions, door thresholds and upper-storey windows can restrict the height available for insulation and upstands. The correct proposal therefore depends on the existing construction, internal levels and the route to the rainwater outlet. These are considered before a replacement build-up is specified.
Our written quotation identifies the proposed covering, preparation, deck work where included, edge details and disposal. If opening the roof could reveal concealed deterioration, that uncertainty is described instead of being hidden inside a vague all-inclusive promise.
Simplified explanation only: the actual build-up, insulation and detailing are specified for the existing roof.

Findon roofing FAQs
Which flat-roof system is best for a Findon extension?
There is no single best system for every roof. Deck condition, upstand height, insulation, rooflights, falls and how the roof is used all affect the specification.
Can an old felt roof be repaired?
Yes, when the failure is localised and the surrounding felt and deck remain serviceable. Widespread blistering, movement or repeated leaks can make renewal better value.
Do you replace rotten flat-roof decking?
Where included in the quotation, defective deck sections can be replaced. Concealed structural deterioration that cannot be confirmed before stripping is explained as a possible additional item.
Can you inspect a flat roof with a drone?
Drone imagery can help with initial inspection where it is safe, suitable and permitted, although close physical inspection may still be needed to confirm small splits or soft decking.
What guarantee comes with a new flat roof?
Qualifying work receives the written guarantee stated in the quotation. The exact term and coverage depend on the agreed system and scope.
