Larke's Roofs

Roofing materials & systems

Coverings and flat-roof systems we fit, how they behave on East Anglian properties and how long they last.

EPDM roofing

A single-piece rubber membrane, and our usual recommendation for domestic flat roofs.

A hard, seamless laminate, the right answer where the roof needs to be walked on.

The traditional built-up system, still the practical answer on certain roofs.

For period, Victorian and heritage properties with slate coverings.

The covering that defines the look of Norfolk villages, and the one we work on most.

The default covering on most post-war housing, with real strengths and two significant catches.

The details that decide whether a roof leaks, and the ones most often done badly.

Mechanical fixing instead of mortar, standard on new work, and usually the right call on a re-roof.
