Why Flat Roofing Matters in West Sussex
Flat roofs are very common in West Sussex — especially on extensions, garages, and outbuildings. But if not properly maintained, they can develop a variety of problems:
-
Water ponding due to poor drainage
-
Cracks or splits in roofing membrane
-
Damage from UV exposure or temperature changes
-
Insufficient insulation, leading to heat loss
As experienced flat roofers, High & Dry Roofing can identify and fix these issues early, helping you avoid more costly repairs later on.

People Also Ask ( FAQs)
What is a flat roof, and how is it different from a pitched roof?
A flat roof has a very slight slope (or none), unlike pitched roofs that have steep angles. They require different materials and waterproofing systems to prevent ponding and leaks.
How long do flat roofs last?
The lifespan depends on the material: GRP fibreglass can last 20–30 years, EPDM rubber around 30–40 years, and torch-on felt often 15–25 years depending on quality and maintenance.
Do flat roofs require much maintenance?
Yes. Regular inspections, clearing drains/gutters, and checking flashings are important to keep a flat roof watertight and extend its life.
Can you repair a leaking flat roof or do I need a full replacement?
It depends on the damage. Small leaks or cracks can often be repaired, but if the roof is old, deteriorated, or extensively damaged, a full re-roof may be more cost-effective in the long run.
Will insulating my flat roof save energy?
Yes. Installing a warm-roof system (with insulation beneath the waterproof membrane) can significantly reduce heat loss, improve energy efficiency, and lower heating bills.
