Flat Roofing in Dorking, Redhill, Reigate and Surrey | Also Covering all Locations in London and Sussex
Flat roofing installation and repair work is a specialist field that requires roofing companies to adopt different skillsets, and to have a detailed understanding of today’s most innovative systems. Astute Roofing is available to provide the services needed to add a flat roof to a new build, to a self-build home, or to a property extension, a porch or even a garden outbuilding. We also repair flat roofing or adapt it to accommodate roof terraces, green roofs and more.
We have three regional offices including one in Surrey that covers Banstead, Dorking, Leatherhead, Redhill and Reigate, and another in Sussex where we offer flat roofing services to customers in Burgess Hill, Crawley, Haywards Heath and the surrounding areas. Our third office, located in London, gives us immediate access into locations such as Balham, Clapham and Carshalton.
Use our roofers for services on a full local and regional scale.
Flat roofing is a popular choice for new installations because it is usually much cheaper and faster to fit than pitched roofing. In terms of repairs, our roofing company can swap out older felt and hot bitumen systems with torch-on felt for customers on a budget, and with an innovative EPDM or GRP surface.

Flat Roofing Design Services
Prior to installing flat roofs, Astute Roofing makes load-bearing calculations so that the weight of the installation distributes evenly. We also factor in inclines of up to 10° to allow for surface water run-off into the gutters and drainage system. Getting the design and preparation right sets the job up for success.
Flat Roofing Structural Services
Upon starting the job, roofers lay timber joists across the span of a flat roofing structure in line with our calculations. A flat roof should be able to withstand foot traffic, especially if you have a roof terrace or a roof garden planned. The use of quality timber and precise installation techniques are critical here.
Flat Roofing Deck Installation
Whether you are having a new roof installed or flat roofing replaced, we will use OSB3 boards to create the deck. Our roofers prefer to use OSB3 boards to lay the deck because it is more dimensionally stable. It also has a better load-bearing capacity, and OSB3 is more durable and has better water resistance.
Flat Roofing Surface Installation
Torch-on felt comes in sheets with a bitumen backing which we melt onto the deck with a blowtorch. This is much safer than older hot application systems. Our company can also use EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass on a flat roofing surface. Both have a seamless, watertight finish and longer life expectancies.
Flat Roofing Repair Services
If your home already has a flat roof which has fallen into disrepair, especially if it has a traditional felt surface, we can repair it and upgrade to a more modern and resilient material at the same time. For smaller patch repairs on an emergency basis, Astute Roofing can assist you with a local 24/7 service.
