Fibreglass is a newer roofing system that lends itself best to flat roofing but is also suitable for pitched roofs in some applications. It has no seams, so it’s less likely to fail and let water in, and it’s relatively easy for a professional to repair if damaged.

The benefits of fibreglass roofing for the consumer are its durability, longevity and high performance. A fibreglass roof will last for more than 20 years. The fact it has no seams, and is also easy to repair, means that any issues can be quickly identified and nullified by a professional.

The primary benefit of fibreglass roofing for the roofer is that it’s prefabricated (it often comes pre-cut from the factory, allowing for quick installation). There’s also no wastage at all, which reduces the need to go to the local skip. This is also more environmentally friendly, since roof felt is not widely recycled.

The downside to fibreglass roofing is its cost. It typically costs 10 times more than felt, especially when it must be laid on a tongue and groove plywood deck. Because of this it is almost certain that the current timber deck will be unsuitable.

Client Testimonials

New Porch Roof and guttering

“I would recommend David and his team (and have been) as he is pleasant to deal with, solution focused and nothing was a problem to deal with. He was tidy, prompt, on budget and courteous. It’s extremely hard to find a decent tradesman these days and I’ll definitely be using his services for any future requirements given his strong work ethic, comparable prices and ability to get the job done correctly.”

Rena, St. Albans

Re-tile roof, insulation, new fascia’s, soffits, galvanized steel guttering and pipes

“If you want a company that will ensure you get the results you want at a very reasonable price, look no further. Communication was excellent. They are professional, highly proficient, polite and friendly. An excellent job done.”

Theresa, Hertford

Re-tile roof and solar panels. Including gutter soffit and fascia.

“Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dave and his team. Quality of workmanship is excellent, and they accommodated various changes and several small extras within the originally quoted price. Particularly pleased with Dave’s recommendation to retain the existing clay pan tiles rather than replace with concrete as per other quotes received. Whilst not the cheapest quote, definitely competitive and certainly the contractor that inspired the most confidence.”
