Felt Roofing in Kidlington
Increase the Lifespan of Felt Flat Roofing

To keep felt flat roofing in good condition during the autumn and winter months, you need to be proactive with maintenance, such as roof cleaning and gutter cleaning. If a property in Kidlington or the wider Oxfordshire area reaches a state of dilapidation, felt roof repairs might not be possible. Extend the lifespan of your installation by calling out our local roofers for an independent inspection and evaluation. At Abingdon Felt Roofing, we promise to be fair, transparent and accurate in our assessment of your home—an approach we take across all of our services.

If our roofing company finds an example of damage to flat roofs, a rapid response to the problem could be the difference between a minor repair job and having to reroof your home completely.

Here are our top tips for protecting flat roofs in Kidlington.

  • 1

    If you have a felt roof, make sure it is made from a quality roof membrane and not an older bitumen system. With the right care, felt roofing repairs made in IKO TGX roof membranes could last for a couple of decades.

  • 2

    Always give our local roofers a call after a period of rain or snow. We’ll let you know if the pitch of your flat roofing still allows for efficient water runoff. If you have a drainage issue, a fast response could help.

  • 3

    We strongly advise that you never walk on flat roofs made from felt. If a home has an EPDM or a GRP roof, you should be able to walk on it without causing damage to the surface or the topcoat.

    Even if we haven’t had particularly bad weather, you can avoid felt roofing repairs by having us out to perform an annual inspection. Our local roofers can see issues you can’t and can perform roof cleaning and maintenance work that stops problems from occurring.

    Keep a careful eye out for punctures, open seams and worn flat roof surfaces. These are the most common reasons for a roof to fail, but they are also the easiest to fix. The faster your response, the longer your roof will last.

  • 6

    Knowing when to call us in for felt roof repairs and when to reroof makes for a more cost-effective solution. If replacing your roof is the best option, we’ll always advise you as to why and with 100% honesty.

    Our experts suggest that you replace older felt systems in Kidlington with EPDM rubber. Our local roofers use Firestone RubberCover™ EPDM as an alternative to felt flat roofing because it lasts for many decades.
