What Is Felt Roofing?
Felt roofing is a long-established flat roofing system made from bitumen-based materials applied in multiple layers. Our team uses torch-on felt, heated and bonded to the roof surface, creating a waterproof, wind-resistant, and low-maintenance finish.
It’s ideal for:
- Garages & outbuildings
- Home extensions
- Porches & bay windows
- Commercial roofs & flat roofing repairs

Insulated Flat Roofs
We can add thermal insulation beneath your felt system to improve energy efficiency and comply with current Building Regulations.
What’s the Difference Between Warm and Cold Roofs?
Warm Roof System
In a warm roof, the insulation is placed above the roof deck, keeping the entire structure — including timbers — warm. This reduces condensation risk and improves overall thermal performance.
- Better energy efficiency
- Reduces heat loss
- Complies with modern Building Regulations
- Ideal for flat roofs and conversions
- More cost-effective in the long term
Cold Roof System
In a cold roof, the insulation is placed between or under the rafters, meaning the roof deck remains cold. This method is cheaper up front but needs effective ventilation to prevent condensation buildup.
- Lower initial cost
- Suitable for well-ventilated pitched roofs
- May not meet current insulation standards without upgrades
- Higher risk of condensation if not properly designed
