Why Should I Choose Felt Roofing?

Modern felt roofing provides a proven, versatile and cost-effective waterproofing solution for flat and low-pitched roofs. Today’s high-performance multi-layer systems can be specified to suit a wide range of commercial and public-sector buildings, delivering reliable protection and long-term performance.

The suitability of any roofing system will depend on factors including the building, roof construction, existing condition, budget and long-term requirements. Our experienced team can assess your project and recommend an appropriate felt roofing solution.

Durable

Modern multi-layer felt roofing systems provide robust, long-lasting protection against the elements and can deliver many years of reliable performance when correctly specified and maintained.

Cost-Effective

Felt roofing can provide a highly cost-effective solution for commercial roofing projects, offering reliable waterproofing and strong long-term value.

Versatile

Suitable for a wide range of flat and low-pitched roofs, felt systems can be adapted to different building types, roof layouts and project requirements.

Is Felt Roofing Right For Your Property?

Felt roofing is a versatile solution suitable for many flat and low-pitched roofs, including commercial, public-sector and industrial properties. It can be used for new-build installations, planned roof replacements and refurbishment projects, and is particularly well suited to roofs with complex layouts, multiple penetrations or detailed junctions.

However, the most appropriate roofing system will depend on a range of factors, including the existing roof construction, building use, roof access, drainage, required lifespan, budget and future maintenance requirements. In some cases, alternative systems such as single-ply membranes, liquid-applied coatings or other waterproofing solutions may be more suitable.

At All Aspect, we assess the specific requirements of each project before recommending a roofing solution. Our team can survey your existing roof, discuss your requirements and advise whether a felt roofing system is the most appropriate option for your property.

Our Installation Process

Every felt roofing project begins with an understanding of the building, the existing roof and the specific requirements of the client. While the precise process will vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project, our installations typically follow these key stages:

1. Survey & Assessment

We inspect the existing roof and assess its condition, construction and any issues that may need to be addressed before the new roofing system is installed.

2. Specification & Planning

We recommend an appropriate felt roofing system based on the building and project requirements, then plan the works around access, safety, programme and the needs of the occupied building.

3. Preparation

The roof is prepared for installation, with defective materials addressed and the substrate prepared in accordance with the requirements of the selected roofing system.

4. Felt Roofing Installation

The multi-layer felt roofing system is installed by our experienced team, with careful attention paid to laps, joints, flashings, upstands, penetrations and other critical details.

5. Quality Checks & Completion

We carry out appropriate quality checks throughout the project and on completion to ensure the roofing system has been installed to the required standard.

6. Handover & Aftercare

Once the works are complete, we provide the relevant project and warranty information and can discuss ongoing inspection and maintenance requirements to help protect the long-term performance of the roof.

Frequently Asked Questions

The lifespan of a felt roof will depend on the system specified, the quality of installation, the building environment and how well the roof is maintained.
