Project Details
Our team recently carried out expert felt roofing repairs at a B&M store in Birmingham, building on our trusted relationship with the national retailer.
This project involved addressing critical wear and tear on an aged flat roof system, improving durability, weatherproofing, and visual finish.
Flat Roof Preparation and Assessment
Before any roofing work began, we performed a full survey and assessment of the affected areas.
The existing felt system had visible signs of cracking, blistering, and water ingress — all common issues on older flat roofs.
The condition made it essential to take a meticulous approach to strip back compromised materials and apply new, watertight solutions.
Installation of New High-Performance Felt Roofing
We used a three-layer, torch-on felt roofing system, designed to offer long-lasting protection against the elements.
This included a perforated venting base layer, underlay, and a high-quality mineral-finished cap sheet.
Each layer was carefully sealed and bonded using professional-grade gas torches to ensure maximum adhesion and resistance to moisture.
Specialist Detailing and Complex Roof Zones
This project also required detailed attention to roof protrusions, upstands, corners, and drainage features.
Our skilled roofers hand-cut and sealed custom flashings around vents and plant bases, reinforcing vulnerable joins and edges.
The result is a seamless and uniform surface that effectively channels water away from key structural areas.
Enhancing Roof Longevity and Energy Efficiency
By replacing failing materials with modern felt membranes, we improved the building’s overall thermal performance and resistance to leaks.
The new surface reflects more sunlight and reduces thermal gain, helping B&M cut future maintenance costs and enhance comfort within the premises.
