Roofing in Gravesend

Affordable Cover for Outbuildings

Looking for felt roofs in Gravesend? We work on homes across Gravesend and the surrounding area from our base in Kent, and every job starts with a proper look at the roof and a written price before any work is booked.

Felt still gets blamed for the single-layer roofs that failed within a few winters, but a modern built-up system is a different product. It is laid in bonded layers, with a reinforced base and a mineral-finished cap sheet that stands up to sunlight and weather.

We strip the old covering, check the deck and replace any soft boards, then correct the fall where water has been standing. The new layers are bonded to the deck and dressed properly into the trims, upstands and outlets. It remains one of the most affordable ways to give a flat roof sound, long-lasting protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Felt Roofs in Gravesend FAQs

How long will a new felt roof last?

A well-laid built-up felt roof lasts far longer than the old single-layer type. We give you the expected life of the system with your quote.

Can my existing felt roof be repaired?

If the damage is localised, often yes. If the felt is blistered and split across the roof, re-covering is usually better value.

Is felt cheaper than rubber or fibreglass?

Felt is usually the most affordable of the three. We are happy to price the alternatives so you can compare.

Why does my felt roof have bubbles in it?

Blisters form when moisture or air is trapped under the felt and expands in the heat. A few small blisters may be left alone; widespread blistering is a sign the covering is failing.

Can you felt a shed or outbuilding?

Yes. Garages, sheds, outbuildings and extensions can all be covered with the same built-up system.
