Flat Roof Services
A common feature across Surrey homes Flat roofs are common on extensions, garages, dormers and porches right across Surrey, and when they're installed properly they're a straightforward, reliable way to cover these areas. The problems tend to start when the original covering was fitted without the right falls, or when it's simply reached the end of its working life - that's when you start seeing ponding water, blistering, or damp patches appearing on ceilings below.
Felt, EPDM and GRP options to suit your roof We install and repair flat roofs using felt, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass, choosing whichever covering suits the roof, its use and your budget rather than pushing a one-size-fits-all fix. Every flat roof we cover gets proper attention to falls, upstands and edge detailing, because that's where most flat roof failures actually begin. If your flat roof is giving you trouble, call us on 07566 234868 and we'll take an honest look at what it needs.
Roofing Projects
Felt, EPDM & GRP Roofing We install and replace flat roof coverings using felt, rubber (EPDM) or fibreglass (GRP), matching the material to your roof, its usage and your budget. Each option has different strengths, and we'll explain the trade-offs clearly before you decide.
Leak & Ponding Repairs Standing water and slow leaks on flat roofs are almost always down to drainage falls or a failing membrane rather than one obvious hole. We diagnose the actual cause and fix it properly, not just patch the symptom.
Flat-to-Pitched Conversions Where a flat roof has become an ongoing source of problems, converting it to a pitched roof can be a more durable, lower-maintenance long-term solution. We'll talk you through whether that investment makes sense for your property.

Frequently Asked Questions
What flat roofing services are available from LT Leadwork & Roofing?
LT Leadwork & Roofing specialises in flat roofing services in Surrey, offering expert installation, maintenance, and repair for durable and leak-free flat roofs.
How long does a flat roof covering last?
Felt typically lasts 10-15 years, GRP fibreglass around 20-25 years, and EPDM rubber 25 years or more with proper installation.
Why does my flat roof keep getting ponding water?
Ponding is usually caused by insufficient falls or a sagging deck - both can be corrected during a re-cover rather than just patched.
Is EPDM better than felt?
EPDM generally lasts longer with fewer joints to fail, though felt remains a cost-effective option for smaller roofs.
Would converting to a pitched roof be worth it?
It depends on the roof's condition and how often you're repairing it - we'll give you an honest comparison of both options.
Do you offer a warranty on flat roof work?
Yes, all flat roof installations and repairs are covered by our workmanship guarantee, and materials typically carry their own manufacturer warranty too.
