Flat Roofing & Repairs Glasgow & Hamilton
At Varey Contracts in Glasgow and Hamilton we are specialists at conducting flat roofing services with a professional and friendly approach. Flat roofing provides significant protection from all weather conditions, as their tight membrane eliminates the chances of leaks or general wear and tear over time.
Unlike pitched roofs, flat roofing is considered the cheapest roofing solution. This is due to its easy installation process and materials.
Flat roofing makes for larger living spaces and lasts twice as long as other roofing solutions. Its versatile installation process means that the possibilities for design, colour, and uses are endless. Additionally, if there is a need for repairs, the process is relatively quick and painless as it provides easy access for maintenance needs and more.

Felt Roofing
Roofing felt is a traditional material used for covering a flat roof. It is made from bitumen that has been mixed with sand or limestone and is often heated with a torch whilst being installed.
You may have seen roofing felt on garden sheds and outbuildings, but it is also suitable as a budget- friendly option for extensions and roof terraces.
Felt roofs have a lifespan of around 10-15 years, after which it will need replacing to maintain the weather proofing.
Flat felt roofs have gained a unwarranted reputation for being leaky and unreliable with high maintenance costs. However, with the arrival of the latest roofing technologies, flat roofs are now an effective, low-cost roofing solution.
Traditional felt roofing is created using several layers of felt bonded by heat and generally last between 10 and 15 years. Felt roofs are cost effective and quick to install.
We have felt roofing teams based in Glasgow and Hamilton on call 24/7.
The benefits of felt roofing includes:
- Waterproof
- Weatherproof
- Lightweight
- Cheap to install
