What is a flat roof?
A flat roof is a roof which has a pitch of no greater than 10 degrees. Generally, flat roofs are constructed from timber joists, which are overlaid with a flat timber decking such as plywood. Insulation can then be glued or screwed down to the decking and then overlaid with felt, rubber or PVC membrane. Flat roofs can also be constructed from either pre-cast or cast in situ concrete decks, which are overlaid with asphalt, gravel of felt. At Roofers Manchester, we can carry out core samples of your flat roof build up to determine the right solution for repair or replacement. Flat roofs are also suitable for solar panel installers to work on!

Why choose a flat roof?
Flat roofs are generally cheaper to install, maintain and repair than pitched roofs. They also tend to provide greater thermal efficiency and versatility than pitched roofs, which makes them a great option to consider.
A properly installed flat roof should achieve a minimum U-Value of 0.18 according to the latest revisions of the building regulations, therefore, insulation forms a vital part of the functioning of your flat roof. When installed correctly, your flat roof should provide protection against water ingress and the built-up roof system should enable water to run off your roof and into the gutters.
Flat roofs require less space and subsequently less materials than pitched roofs and this is what makes them hugely popular for extension and garage roofs. Flat roofs can also be used to grow plants and house building maintenance equipment. This makes them very popular for commercial buildings where sustainability and storage is of paramount importance.
When designing and installing a flat roof, it is important to consider the right materials, insulation, and falls. Contact our Manchester flat roofing experts today for guidance on the construction of your flat roof! We will talk you through the pros and cons of each flat roof material, and also discuss options for converting your existing flat roof into a sloping roof.
