This roof is tired, it was over 30 years old and had started to leak.

We were called to look at this leaking roof in Peterborough. Funnily it only leaked when it rained and someone had already tried to ‘repair’ the leak by adding some breather felt. Rest assured that didn’t work so we went round to fix the problem. The underlying boards were in good condition and the roof was leaking only where the felt met the house. You can’t repair felt for an prolonged period, it is far more economical to replace it.

We use Axter’s 3 ply torch on system, this is covered by a written guarantee of 10 years. We’ve been installing these for years and have never had any issues (touch wood) yet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The flat roof has now been refelted, the new 3 ply felt should last for decades, our guarantee says it will last for at least 10 years. Our guarantee covers installation. If it hasn't leaked in 10 years then we have installed it correctly.
