Looking for flat roofing in Ilford? Ilford is characterised by 1930s suburban semi-detached houses with hipped roofs and concrete interlocking tiles, stretching along Cranbrook Road and into Gants Hill. Closer to the town centre, Victorian terraces and Edwardian villas have slate and plain tile roofs. The Ilford Hill development has added modern apartment blocks with flat membrane roofing.
Poor drainage destroys flat roofs. In Ilford, we design falls of at least 1:60 using tapered insulation boards or firring strips to direct water to outlets. 1930s concrete interlocking tiles across Ilford’s suburban streets are now beyond their 80-year lifespan — they absorb water, crack in frost, and shed granules. Hipped roof valleys on semi-detached houses are a chronic leak point. Bay window roofs on Ponding water — standing for more than 48 hours after rain — accelerates membrane deterioration and adds significant dead load to the structure. Every flat roof we install in Ilford drains completely within 24 hours.

Three main systems for flat roofs in Ilford: GRP fibreglass is seamless, rigid, and comes with a 25-year guarantee — ideal for extensions and balconies.

We recommend the right system based on your roof size, access, and budget.

“Called about missing slates after the January storm. They were on our roof within three hours, replaced eight slates and re-sealed the flashing around the chimney. Clean, fast, and the price was exactly what they quoted on the phone.”
