  • no, that's the problem. we're looking to replace all the flat roof section, retile the tiled areas, new soakers and felt the concrete bit in the corner. I was wondering if it's worth the additional £280 to use triflex rather than torched felt on the flat roof area. Torched felt to my untrained eye looks a bit like the budget and shit option. Is that the case, or is it the go to option for this sort of thing? thanks very much

  • Ah, not sure then. Looks like mastic asphalt is on there now. There is a two layer and three layer torch on felt, with the three layer having a longer expected life, but different brands give varying quality and life expectancy.. Any particular reason that EDPM or the grp resins aren't being offered as I though that would be easier/cheaper as less time and skill to cover a small area.

    EDIT: Currently working on a listed building and the roof replacement we are looking at EDPM and or grp resins. But so far we are 5 years in and still fund raising.

    Good luck getting that past English heritage / the local conservation officer.
