About Battersea

Battersea spans a huge variety of property types: Victorian terraces off the Northcote Road, mansion blocks near the common, modern riverside apartments along the Thames, and busy commercial properties on the high streets.

Common work: flat-roof systems on purpose-built mansion blocks, traditional repairs on period housing, and ongoing maintenance contracts with Battersea letting agents.

What we offer in Battersea

Flat and low-pitched roofs need different systems to pitched tile or slate roofs. The right choice depends on budget, foot traffic, exposure, and how long you plan to stay in the property.

Our flat roof systems

We install three main systems, each with real strengths. We'll always recommend what's right for your specific situation.

• Cost: £75-£95 per m² installed
• Pros: Seamless, very flexible, low maintenance, won't crack or blister

GRP Fibreglass Roofing

Cold-applied liquid resin and mat that cures to a hard, seamless, walkable surface. The premium choice for balconies and terraces.

• Cost: £85-£110 per m² installed
• Pros: Hard-wearing, fully bonded, can be any colour, slip-resistant options

How to choose

• Budget is the priority? Felt
• Not sure? We'll look and recommend what's actually right for your situation.

Common flat roof problems

• Ponding water — flat roofs need adequate falls to drainage
• Blistering or splitting — usually poor installation or aged felt
• Leaks at upstands — where the membrane meets walls
• Edge deterioration — failed trims or edge details
• Age failure — felt over 15 years old becomes brittle

Building Regulations for flat roofs

Since 2022, flat roofs require insulation upgrades to meet current Part L Building Regulations when more than 25% is replaced. We install modern warm-roof construction with rigid insulation above the deck — keeps your home warmer and reduces energy bills.
