Flat roofs

EYG’s flat solid roofs use EPDM rubber roofing - the most effective roofing material which provides waterproof, UV-proof and long-lasting protection for your garage or home extension.

Ageing felt roofs can be problematic when the material is old and damaged – allowing water into the fabric of the building, which in turn causes problems.

Re-vamp your leaking roof with our rubber (EPDM) flat roofs - quite simply the most cost-effective and best roofing material on the market.

Our flat roofs are incredibly long-lasting and durable, hard to tear or damage, and very quick and easy to install.

FAQs

What is the best material for a garage roof replacement?

Your garage roof is leaking and everything inside is at risk of getting ruined. What do you need to do?

Well, you probably don’t want to spend tens of thousands on a new roof which is there purely for practical purposes.

You don’t need to have an insulated roof or plastered interior finish. After all, it’s just a garage. So don’t fall for expensive quotes for something that you won’t benefit from.

An EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) black roof is widely considered to be the best roofing material for a replacement roof for garages and flat roof extensions.

This rubber roofing material is durable, weatherproof, and resistant to extreme temperatures, which is why it’s such a popular choice for flat roofs. The good news is, it is also reasonably-priced, so you can re-vamp your old leaking roof with something that is affordable, long-lasting and maintenance-free.

What is the difference between traditional felt and asphalt roofs and EDPM roofs?

An EPDM roof is quicker and easier to install, as it doesn’t involve dangerous heating processes, unlike felt and asphalt.

It is also much more durable and completely maintenance-free, unlike the other two options, and won’t even need cleaning.

Asphalt roofs have dominated across the UK for decades and yet they are susceptible to leaking and only last for around 10 to 15 years.

Felt has a similar life span to asphalt, and can also be susceptible to rotting and leaking.

EPDM is now fast becoming the UK’s most popular roofing material due to its far superior weatherproof properties.

It can also last for at least twice as long as asphalt and felt roofing, making it more cost-effective too.

Can I carry out my own garage roof repairs?

Unless you are very skilled at DIY, garage roofing and roof repairs are best left to the professionals.

Checkatrade, which EYG as verified and approved members of, recommends that people hire a professional for roof repairs for several reasons, these include:

  • Working at heights can be dangerous for the untrained
  • Small repairs might be manageable but fitting an entire new roof material is a difficult task
  • If tackling multiple repairs, it is probably better and more economical to replace the entire roof material
  • Installing it yourself could lead to mistakes, and cause leaking which put the entire contents of your garage at risk of damage

Re-roofing a garage or side extension is not a big expense so can be carried out by a professional without breaking the bank and could save money in the long-term by weather-proofing your building and its contents.

Lisa Ward, September 2024

From initial enquiry to the last finishing touches the team were great. Punctual, tidy, friendly and helpful. My new summerhouse complements my EYG conservatory perfectly. A great job and a very satisfied customer

Claire McCarthy, September 2024

I had 4 large windows and a back door fitted last week, the two fitters were on time both days, respected my house, covered all carpets and was left clean and tidy on completion. I cannot fault their workmanship. I would totally recommend EYG to anyone. Thanks for a great job.

Paul and Sean were lovely helpful fitters. My husband ws ill so they even put fitments back for vertical blinds. Excellent, worked non stop, I will certainly recommend EYG. The price was reasonable and work first class.
