Modern felt roofing systems

Torch-on felt

The most widely used professional system. Multiple layers of bitumen felt are heat-bonded with a gas torch to create a robust, fully adhered membrane. This is the system we recommend for most residential flat roofing.

High-performance mineral felt

A heavy-duty system finished with a mineral surface that reflects UV light and extends lifespan, without the cost of GRP or EPDM.

Self-adhesive felt systems

A cold-applied system that bonds without a torch, suitable for confined or sensitive environments where open-flame working is not appropriate.

FAQs

Roofing Questions, Answered

How long does a felt roof last?

A professionally installed torch-on felt system typically lasts 15 to 25 years depending on specification, installation quality and maintenance. High-performance mineral felt reaches the upper end of that range.

What is torch-on felt roofing?

Torch-on felt is a system in which multiple layers of bitumen felt are heat-bonded to the roof deck with a gas torch. It creates a fully adhered, seamless membrane that is far more durable than traditional nailed felt, and it is the system we recommend for most residential projects.

How does felt compare to fibreglass or EPDM?

Felt carries a lower upfront cost, making it attractive where budget is the priority. GRP fibreglass and EPDM rubber offer longer lifespans and lower long-term maintenance. The right choice depends on your budget, application and expectations.

Can a felt roof be repaired rather than replaced?

In many cases, yes. Isolated blistering, splits or flashing failures can be repaired on a roof that is not excessively aged. Where deterioration is widespread, replacement is the better investment.

Is felt roofing suitable for a house extension?

For smaller extensions where budget is a consideration, a quality torch-on felt system is a practical, reliable solution. For larger extensions or where longevity is the priority, GRP fibreglass or EPDM rubber may be a better fit. Our team will help you choose.

How much does a felt roof cost?

Felt roofing is generally the most cost-effective of the three principal flat roofing systems. Exact costs depend on the size, specification and complexity of the project. We offer free site visits and quotes tailored to your requirements.
