Flat Roof Repairs: All Jobs Covered in London and Surrey

A well designed, precision installed flat roof can have the potential lifespan of decades.  But as is the case with all types of residential roofs, periodic maintenance and repairs may be necessary to keep your flat roof safe, effective and structurally sound.

At Aptitude Roofing, we provide a comprehensive range of flat roof repair and or replacement services for homes in South London and Surrey. If you have spotted any of the early warning signs of a potential issue or would like our experts to examine your roof for damage, call anytime for an obligation-free quotation.

How Often Should a Flat Roof be Inspected?

Regular flat roof inspections are crucial for maintaining their integrity and longevity. As a general rule, flat roofs should be examined at least twice a year, typically in the spring and autumn.

These inspections are timed to assess any damages that may have occurred as a result of harsh winter conditions or to prepare the roof for potential winter damage, respectively. Additionally, it is wise to inspect a flat roof after any extreme weather event, such as heavy rain, hail, or high winds, which could cause immediate and significant damage.

Regular inspections can identify potential issues early, before they become major problems. This includes looking for signs of wear and tear, pooling water, blocked drains, and checking the roof membrane for any cracks or blisters.

Engaging with professionals for these inspections is advisable as they have the expertise to spot subtle problems that an untrained eye may miss. Staying proactive with routine inspections can help extend the life of your flat roof and prevent costly repairs down the line.

What Are the Most Common Signs of Damage to a Flat Roof?

Identifying damage to a flat roof early can prevent extensive repairs and ensure the safety of the structure below. Some of the most common signs of damage include:

  • Pooling Water:

    After a rainstorm, water should drain off the flat roof. Puddles that remain indicate potential issues with the drainage system or the roof’s pitch.

  • Leaks:

    Spots or stains on the ceilings and walls inside your building often point to a leaking flat roof.

  • Blistering or Alligatoring:

    The roof surface can develop bubble-like blisters or a textured pattern resembling alligator skin, which indicates the membrane is ageing and may need repair or replacement.

  • Cracks and Tears:

    These are usually apparent on the roof surface and may be caused by weather or structural movement.

  • Flashing Damage:

    The material that seals the roof edges can separate, crack, or become corroded, leading to leaks.

By keeping an eye out for issues like these, you can ensure your flat roof is repaired in a timely manner, nipping emerging problems in the bud before they escalate further.

Do I Need to Repair or Replace My Flat Roof?

Deciding between flat roof repair and replacement depends on several factors including the extent of damage, the roof’s age, and your budget. Minor issues like small leaks, isolated blisters, or minor flashing problems often call for a flat roof repair. However, if you’re constantly calling for repairs, it might be cost-effective to consider a full replacement.

For extensive damage involving large areas like multiple leaks, significant water pooling, or widespread deterioration of the roofing material, a replacement may be the better long-term solution. The age of your roof also plays a critical role; flat roofs have a lifespan of approximately 20 to 25 years. If your roof is nearing this age and experiencing frequent problems, replacing it could prevent the escalating costs associated with frequent flat roof repairs.

A thorough inspection by a roofing professional can help you determine the most practical approach, ensuring your flat roof remains functional and protective. At Aptitude Roofing, our skilled contractors are standing by to conduct a detailed inspection of your property, and provide the objective advice you need to make the right decision for your home.

How Much Does It Cost to Repair a Flat Roof?

The cost of flat roof repair can vary widely based on the extent of the damage and the specific materials required.

Minor flat roof repairs, such as sealing leaks or patching small areas, may cost between £100 to £300. More substantial repairs, which might include fixing or replacing damaged membranes, can range from £200 to £500. If the flat roof requires extensive work, such as a full or partial replacement, the expenses can skyrocket to anywhere from £1,000 to several thousand pounds.

The type of material your flat roof is made from can also affect the price. Traditional materials such as felt are often cheaper to repair, whereas modern alternatives like EPDM or fibreglass may incur higher costs due to their durability and technical installation requirements.

If you would like to know how much you can expect to pay for your flat roof repair on an obligation-free basis, contact a member of the team at aptitude roofing anytime. We’ll pay you a visit, take a look at your roof and provide our recommendations – all with no obligation to go ahead at any time.
