Thinking About a New Flat Roof? Consider Fibreglass
Old felt flat roofs can be a real headache, can't they? They're prone to leaks, cracking, and just don't seem to last all that long. If you're looking for a modern, reliable alternative for your garage, extension, dormer, or balcony in Ashford, Maidstone, or anywhere across our Kent service area stretching out from Rainham, fibreglass roofing is definitely worth exploring. It's a durable, long-lasting solution that homeowners and businesses are increasingly choosing for its strength and seamless finish.

Why Choose White Roofing?
What is Fibreglass Roofing (GRP)?
Also known as GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) roofing, this isn't your grandad's shed roof. It involves applying layers of high-quality fibreglass matting soaked in a special resin directly onto a prepared roof deck, typically OSB board. Once cured, it forms a single, continuous, incredibly strong, and watertight layer. Think of it like creating a tough, rigid shell right there on your roof – no joins, no seams to worry about splitting or lifting.
Why Choose Fibreglass for Your Flat Roof?
There are some compelling reasons why GRP roofing is such a popular choice these days. Firstly, its durability is outstanding. It's resistant to UV rays, extreme temperatures, and even foot traffic (great if you need occasional access). Secondly, that seamless finish means there are no weak points for water to creep into, virtually eliminating leaks when installed correctly. It’s also incredibly low maintenance – once it's down, you don't really need to do much to it apart from maybe the occasional clean. Plus, it looks clean, modern, and comes in various colours.
Perfect for Extensions, Garages & More
Fibreglass roofing is ideal for almost any flat or low-pitched roof project. We've installed countless GRP roofs on new home extensions across Ashford and Maidstone, giving families peace of mind knowing their new living space is properly protected. Garages, dormer windows, porches, balconies, and even commercial or industrial flat roofs all benefit hugely from the robust and waterproof nature of a fibreglass installation.
Our Careful Fibreglass Installation Process
Putting down a fibreglass roof is a skilled job, and our experienced team takes pride in getting it right. It starts with thoroughly preparing the roof deck, ensuring it's clean, dry, and properly boarded. We then lay the fibreglass matting and saturate it with the specialist roofing resin, carefully consolidating it to remove any air bubbles. Once cured, a topcoat is applied, providing the final waterproof seal and chosen colour finish. Every step is carried out with meticulous detail to ensure a perfect, lasting result that meets industry standards.

Reviews
I highly recommend. He was punctual, professional, and clearly takes pride in his work. From the start, he explained everything clearly, making sure I understood what needed to be done and why. The job was completed efficiently and to a high standard, and he left everything clean and tidy. It’s refreshing to find someone so reliable—I’ll definitely be using his services again in the future!
Lee installed a new corrugated roof and removed the old one. He arrived on time, did a good job (we've had no issues afterwards) and left the space looking tidy.
Quick to respond to initial contact and arrange a date to come round. Good communications and arrived on time. Gave a quote quickly and good price. Arrived for the work on time, and finished the work quickly. The new (brick built) shed roof looks great! Would use again.
