Flat Roof Replacement & Refurbishment

Upgrade Your Old, Failing Roof – Serving Portsmouth, Fareham, Gosport & Local Towns.

Is Your Flat Roof at the End of Its Life?

Most older felt roofs have a lifespan of 10-15 years. If your roof is constantly leaking, pooling water, or looking cracked and tired, it may be more cost-effective to replace it than to keep paying for repairs.

At Pallard Roofing, a replacement isn't just a new waterproof layer—it's an upgrade for your home. We replace rotten timbers, improve drainage, and install modern insulation that keeps your home warmer.

Strip & Re-Lay vs. Overlay

Depending on the condition of your roof, we offer two solutions:

Strip & Re-Lay

We remove all old layers down to the joists. We check for rot, install a new OSB3 structural deck, new insulation, and a new waterproofing system. This is the most thorough option.

Overlay

If your existing timber deck is perfectly sound, we may be able to install a new liquid or felt system directly over the old one. This saves time, money, and landfill waste.

Disposal of Materials

We are a responsible, family-run business. We handle the safe removal and legal disposal of all your old roofing materials, leaving your garden spotless.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our services and process.

If the leaks are isolated, a repair is fine. However, if the roof is over 20 years old, has widespread cracking, or if the deck feels 'spongy' when walked on, a replacement is usually the safer choice.
A standard garage or extension roof replacement typically takes 2-3 days. We ensure the roof is watertight at the end of each day so your home is never exposed overnight.
Yes, significantly. When we replace a roof over a living space, we install 'Warm Deck' insulation boards. This brings the roof up to modern thermal standards.
We can arrange for the safe removal and disposal of corrugated asbestos cement sheets before installing a new timber deck and modern flat roof system.
For longevity, we recommend EPDM Rubber (50-year life expectancy). For budget-friendly durability, modern High-Performance Felt is a great choice. For complex shapes and overlays, Liquid Waterproofing is ideal.
We monitor the weather closely. We only strip off what we can re-cover or temporarily waterproof in a day. We carry heavy-duty tarpaulins to protect your property.
Yes. All full roof replacements come with a 15-25 year guarantee on labour and materials. We also offer Insurance Backed Guarantees for extra security.
