Flat roofing

Upstands, outlets and edge trims are where most flat-roof leaks start.

What this covers

Felt, GRP fibreglass, EPDM and single-ply flat roofs on extensions, dormers and garages.

Before the roofer arrives

• Stay off the roof, especially when it is wet, icy or after a storm.
• Put buckets under drips and move belongings and electronics away from wet ceilings.
• Photograph damage inside and, from the ground, outside — useful for an insurance claim.
