New Flat Roofing
Flat roofing is an increasingly popular roofing solution for many buildings in Tunbridge Wells, due to its low cost and ease of installation. However, there are several types of flat roofing systems available to choose from. The most popular flat roofing materials are Fibre Glass roofing, EPDM rubber roofing and asphalt felts.
At Mastercraft Roofing we use a fibreglass roofing system, made out of resin with fibreglass strands, which is flexible, waterproof and strong. We also supply EPDM rubber roofing, which is extremely durable with an extensive long life.
Asphalt felts are a type of built-up roofing system that consists of layers of felt saturated in hot tar or asphalt as the waterproof membrane. Asphalt felts are very durable and can last up to 20 years or more when properly maintained. Asphalt felts are also relatively inexpensive compared to other flat roofing types and can be installed quickly and easily by professional contractors. However, they do require regular maintenance since they can be prone to cracking if not kept in good condition.
If you are choosing between these flat roofing types for your home in Tunbridge Wells or Wadhurst, it’s important to consider both the short-term costs associated with each system as well as their long-term performance and maintainability requirements. Rubber roofing may cost more initially but offers excellent durability over time while asphalt felts can save money up front but require frequent maintenance to keep them structurally sound over time. Both systems can provide an effective solution for protecting your home or building from the elements.
