Flat Roofs for Cleveleys Properties
Cleveleys flat-roof work is mostly garage roofs and bungalow porches — the original felt has nearly always failed at the laps and pooled where the deck has bowed.
Whether the job is a domestic terrace or a unit on Fleetwood Road industrial, flat roofs in Cleveleys starts the same way: a proper survey, an itemised quote, and a written workmanship guarantee.

Flat Roofs for Cleveleys properties
Most failed flat roofs were never installed properly in the first place — wrong falls, badly bonded laps, no upstands. We strip back to the deck, replace any rotten boards, set correct falls, and bond the new EPDM or GRP membrane in one continuous piece wherever possible. The result is a flat roof that lasts decades, not seasons.
About Cleveleys
Wyre coastal town — exposed seafront, family streets behind, and a lot of mid-century housing stock.
Housing stock: Heavy mix of 1930s–1960s semis and bungalows with concrete interlocking tile roofs, plus newer estates inland. Bungalows often have shallow-pitch roofs that gather more debris.
Local exposure: Direct Irish Sea exposure on the western fringe — wind uplift on ridges and chimney pointing failure are common after winter storms.
Planning context: Mostly outside conservation control, so practical, durable materials (concrete tile, GRP flat roofing) are usually acceptable provided they match the street.
What we do differently in Cleveleys
- We replace bowed OSB or chipboard decking rather than re-covering on top — re-covering a bowed deck just locks the puddle in.
- EPDM is bonded as a single sheet wherever possible — no laps means no failure points in coastal weather.
- We re-set gutter falls so water actually leaves the roof rather than overshooting an undersized outlet.
What's included
- Strip and inspect existing decking
- Replacement OSB/ply decking where required
- Setting correct falls to outlets
- EPDM, GRP or torch-on felt membrane
- Aluminium drip edge and gutter trims
- Insulation upgrade where required

Recent example: garage roof in Anchorsholme stripped to joists, re-decked in 18mm OSB with new falls, and finished in single-piece EPDM.

- Loose lead flashings around chimney stacks
Frequently asked
- Why does my Cleveleys garage roof keep pooling water?
- Almost always because the original chipboard decking has sagged between joists. The fix is to lift the cover, replace the deck, set proper falls and bond a new EPDM single sheet — not to re-felt over the puddle.
- How long does flat roofs typically take?
- 1–4 days depending on size — most domestic extensions are completed in two days.
