New & Replacement Flat Roofs for Highland Homes
A flat roof covers some of the hardest working parts of a house: the kitchen extension, the garage, the dormer. When the covering has reached the end of its life, you get a new roof laid over a sound deck, with the falls set so rainwater drains off instead of sitting in puddles.
There are three main ways to cover a flat roof. Felt is built up in layers and bonded to the deck. Rubber, known as EPDM, is a single sheet with few or no joints. Fibreglass, or GRP, is resin and glass matting laid in place and finished with a hard topcoat. Each has its strengths, and we explain them in plain terms.
We work across Inverness, the Great Glen and Fort William, where flat roofs take a lot of rain and wind through the year. Every job starts with a FREE, no-obligation quote, so you know what is involved and which covering we recommend before any work is booked.

Size & Shape of the Roof
A larger area needs more material and labour, and awkward shapes or several outlets take extra time to detail.
Choice of Covering
Felt, rubber and fibreglass each use different materials and methods, so the system you choose affects the overall cost.
Condition of the Deck
If boards under the old covering are soft or rotten, they need replacing before the new roof goes on.
Access to the Roof
A garage roof at ground level is simpler to reach than a dormer on an upper storey, which can need extra access equipment.

How a Flat Roof Is Replaced
- Step 1
Assessing the Roof
We look at the covering, the deck beneath it and how water leaves the roof, then recommend the flat roof system that suits it.
- Step 2
Stripping Back to the Deck
The old covering comes off and the boards are checked. Any soft or damaged sections are replaced so the new roof has a firm, level base.
- Step 3
Laying the New Covering
The chosen felt, rubber or fibreglass system goes over the prepared deck, with edges, upstands and outlets detailed to shed water.
- Step 4
Final Checks
Outlets and edges are checked so water runs off cleanly. We then review the new flat roof with you and confirm it is all as agreed.
