When Patching Is No Longer Enough

Flat roofs have a finite lifespan. Traditional felt coverings last 10 to 15 years, and even well-maintained systems eventually crack, blister and lose their waterproofing ability. Once multiple repairs are needed or the deck beneath has become soft and saturated, a full replacement is the only reliable solution.

Radiant Roofing carries out complete flat roof replacements across Kent, Sussex and Surrey. We strip back to the joists if necessary, replace any rotten timber, install new insulation and deck board, and lay a modern flat roofing system — EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass or torch-on felt — that will keep your property dry for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions

A flat roof replacement typically costs between £1,500 and £6,000 for a standard domestic roof such as a garage, extension or dormer. The main factors are roof size, the covering system you choose and whether the deck or timbers need replacing. EPDM and felt systems sit at the lower end, while GRP fibreglass is at the premium end. We provide a fixed written quote after survey.

Most domestic flat roof replacements take two to three working days. Larger roofs or jobs that require significant timber repairs may take up to five days. We will give you a clear timeline before work starts and keep you updated throughout the project.

It depends on your property and budget. EPDM rubber is the most popular choice for domestic flat roofs — it is affordable, flexible and lasts 30 to 50 years. GRP fibreglass is the premium option, ideal for balconies or areas with foot traffic. Torch-on felt is a cost-effective choice for garages and outbuildings. We will recommend the best system for your specific situation.

We cover Kent, East Sussex, West Sussex and Surrey. Our teams regularly carry out flat roof replacements in Tunbridge Wells, Crowborough, Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, Uckfield, Haywards Heath, East Grinstead and surrounding areas.

If more than 25% of the roof area is being replaced, Building Regulations require the new roof to meet current thermal performance standards. This usually means adding rigid insulation boards above the deck. We handle this as part of every replacement project and can arrange Building Control sign-off where required.
