Torch-On Felt Roofing in Stevenage

Felt is the budget-friendly way to cover a flat roof, and it suits garages, sheds and modest extensions well. The trade-off is a shorter working life than GRP or EPDM and more joints, so the laps need laying with care. TNR Roofing Services lays new torch-on felt roofs and repairs worn ones across Stevenage.

Felt roofs on homes and commercial properties in SG1 and SG2 are handled from our Hemel Hempstead base. During the free survey we look for splits, blisters and standing water, test the deck for soft spots, and then give you a no-obligation quote.

Pricing

Factors in a Stevenage Felt Roof Price

The price of a felt roof in Stevenage depends on these factors, all assessed during your free survey:

  • The number of felt layers specified, from a two-layer system to a heavier three-layer build-up
  • How much old felt and loose chippings need stripping and taking away
  • The condition of the deck boards and how many need replacing before the new felt goes down
  • Upstands, abutments, roof lights and outlets that the felt has to be dressed around
  • Safe access to the roof, such as a tower or scaffold on a taller extension

How it works

How a Stevenage Felt Roof Is Laid

What happens from your first call to the finished work.

  1. Free Survey and Deck Check

    We look for splits, blisters, lifted laps and standing water on the existing felt, and test the deck for soft or sagging areas, so the quote reflects what is really there.

  2. Stripping and Priming

    Old felt and loose chippings are removed, rotten boards are replaced, and the deck is cleaned and primed so the new layers bond firmly.

  3. Torching on the Layers

    The base sheet is torched onto the deck, then the mineral cap sheet is bonded over it with the laps staggered so no joint sits above another.

  4. Edges, Upstands and Handover

    Felt is dressed up walls and finished at the drip trims and outlets. We clear old felt and offcuts from site, then review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does a felt roof have joints?

Felt comes in rolls, so each layer is laid in overlapping strips. We stagger the laps between the base sheet and the cap sheet so no joint sits directly above another, which gives water a harder path through.

Is the felt roof survey free in SG1 and SG2?

Yes. A felt roof survey in Stevenage costs nothing, and the quote we send afterwards is no-obligation.

Can you re-felt a shed or outbuilding?

Yes. Sheds, garages and outbuildings are some of the most common felt roofs we work on, and a new torch-on covering keeps tools and stored items dry.

Do I need to tell Stevenage Borough Council about re-felting?

Usually not, as replacing felt with felt is treated as maintenance. For a listed property or one in a conservation area, Stevenage Borough Council should be asked before the felt work begins.
