Flat Roofs Lanark
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of roofs do you specialise in?
A: We specialise exclusively in felt flat roofing systems — including new installations, overlays, and repairs for both residential and commercial properties.
Q: What areas do you cover?
A: We’re based in Lanark and cover all surrounding areas including Carluke, Lesmahagow, Hamilton, Motherwell, and the wider Lanarkshire region.
Q: What is a 3-tier felt roofing system?
A: Our 3-tier felt system includes an underlay, high-quality insulation boards that help keep out heat in summer and retain warmth in winter, an overlay, and a mineral felt finish for maximum durability and weather protection.
Q: Do I need to get a 3-tier system?
A: Not necessarily. While our 3-tier system offers the highest level of insulation and protection, we also provide single-layer and double-layer felt systems without insulation boards. We’ll always recommend the best option to suit your roof, budget, and requirements — ensuring you get a solution that’s right for your property.
Q: Do I need to get my old roof stripped first?
A: It depends on the condition of your existing roof and the type of system you choose. Some roofs are suitable for an overlay system, while others may require a full strip and replacement. We’ll always assess your roof during inspection and explain the best and most cost-effective option before any work begins.
Q: How much does a new felt roof cost?
A: There’s no set price for any roof, as many factors can affect the cost — including the size of the roof, accessibility, and the roof details or condition. The best way to get an accurate figure is to contact us for a free, no-obligation quote, and we’ll assess your roof and provide clear pricing before any work begins.
Q: Do you offer a guarantee on your work?
A: Yes — all our new felt roofs come with a 20-year guarantee, giving you peace of mind that your investment will last.
Q: Do you take on smaller jobs?
A: Absolutely! We handle all sizes of flat roofing work — from small garden sheds and garages to large commercial projects.
Q: Can you repair my existing felt roof?
A: Yes, we offer professional repair services for leaks, cracks, and damaged felt. We’ll always assess your roof honestly and recommend whether a repair, overlay, or new system is best for you.
Q: How long does a new flat roof take to install?
A: Most small to medium-sized roofs can be completed within 1–3 days, depending on size and weather conditions.
Q: Is your team experienced and insured?
A: Yes — our team has over 40 years of combined experience, and we’re fully insured for all types of flat roofing work.
