EPDM and fibreglass flat roofs in Easton

Easton sits about 6 miles from Norwich, reached off the A47, and that position shapes the flat roofing & epdm we do here. Most of our the NR9 postcode district jobs involve modern estate housing and college and farm buildings, so we plan access, scaffold and materials around that before quoting. We know the streets around Easton College well, and the A47 Easton roundabout is a useful marker when we arrange access.

Common roof problems around Easton

College buildings, newer estates and village housing.

  • Properties around Easton College

    The buildings closest to Easton College take the brunt of the weather from that side, and they are the ones we are asked to look at most often here. The same applies along the approach to the A47 Easton roundabout.

  • Gutter and fascia neglect

    Overflowing gutters soak the wall head and rot the fascia on modern estate housing, which ends up costing more than clearing them in Easton would have.

  • Domestic and commercial in one visit

    Homes and small commercial premises in Easton are quoted on the same terms, inspection first and written specification second.

  • Slipped and cracked tiles

    Most Easton call-outs start with a handful of slipped tiles that let water onto the felt below.

What happens after you call

  1. Deck inspection

    We lift a section to see the deck; nothing is laid over boards that are soft or damp.

  2. Falls and detailing set out

    Firrings, outlet positions and upstand heights are agreed before the membrane arrives.

  3. Membrane installation

    EPDM, GRP or felt installed with trims and upstands dressed properly at every edge.

  4. Water test and handover

    Outlets checked under flow, edges walked, and the finished roof handed over with the system details.

Flat Roofing & EPDM FAQs

Is the roof walkable?
GRP takes foot traffic and suits balconies and terraces. EPDM is fine for maintenance access but isn't intended as a walking surface, if you need a usable deck, say so and we'll specify accordingly.
Why does water sit on our flat roof after rain?
Insufficient fall, a sagging deck or a blocked outlet. On Easton extensions it's usually falls that were never set properly. We reset falls with firrings rather than lay new membrane over the same puddle.
Do you insulate at the same time?
We can build a warm deck with insulation above the structure, which usually makes sense if the roof is coming off anyway and the room below is cold or prone to condensation.
EPDM, fibreglass or felt, which should we choose?
It depends on the deck, the traffic it takes and the budget. EPDM suits most extensions and garages, GRP suits balconies and anything walked on, and felt still makes sense on larger or awkward outbuildings. We'll set out the options at inspection.
Do you actually cover Easton, or just the Norwich area?
We cover it. We're based at Costessey, Norwich and Easton is about 6 miles from Norwich, reached on the A47. Work in Easton is part of the ordinary week here, not a special trip.
