Service overview

## What Is Flat Roof Replacement &amp; Renewal?

Flat roof replacement means stripping back a worn or leaking flat roof and renewing it, including new boarding where the deck has deteriorated and a new covering on top. Ericht Roofing renews flat roofs using approved single-ply membrane systems from Armourplan, Fatra and Sarnafil, with work backed by guarantees of up to 15 years.

### Who it&#x27;s for
It&#x27;s for homeowners whose flat roof has been patched more than once and still leaks, whose felt roof is cracked and blistered, or who have bought a house with a tired flat roof and want it sorted before it causes damage inside.

### When you need it
Replacement is usually the right call when leaks keep coming back after repairs, when the surface is covered in splits or bubbles, when the roof feels soft or spongy underfoot, or when water sits on the roof long after rain has stopped.

### Why professional help matters
Deciding between a repair and a renewal needs an honest opinion. Craig takes photos to show you the condition of the roof and explains what he finds, so you can decide based on evidence rather than a sales pitch.

The cost of waiting

## What Happens If It&#x27;s Ignored

A flat roof at the end of its life gets more expensive every month it&#x27;s left. Each leak lets water into the deck and insulation, and the longer that goes on, the more of the structure has to be replaced when the roof is finally renewed.

### Risks and damage

- Rotten boarding that could have been saved now has to be replaced.
- Wet insulation stops working and the room below becomes cold and damp.
- Internal decorating, plaster and sometimes electrics are damaged by water coming through.
- Repeated call-out repairs add up to a significant sum without solving anything.

### Common mistakes

- Laying a new covering straight over a wet or rotten deck to save money.
- Paying for patch after patch on a roof that has clearly failed.
- Not asking what system is being installed or whether the roofer is approved for it.
- Waiting for a dry spell that never comes instead of getting a quote now.

Our process

## How Craig Does the Job

- 01
### Step 1 – Inspection
Craig visits, looks at the roof himself and takes photos so you can see what he sees.

- 02
### Step 2 – Diagnosis
He explains what&#x27;s wrong, what it will take to fix, and gives you a clear, free, no-obligation quote.

- 03
### Step 3 – Service execution
The old covering is stripped, the boarding is inspected and replaced where needed, and a new single-ply membrane covering is installed and sealed at every edge and junction.

- 04
### Step 4 – Testing and checks
Joins, edges and outlets are checked, the roof&#x27;s drainage is confirmed, and the site is cleared and left tidy.

- 05
### Step 5 – Completion and guarantee
The site is left tidy and the work is backed by a guarantee of up to 15 years.

In detail

## Flat Roof Replacement &amp; Renewal: The Detail

### Repair or replace?
If a flat roof has one clear defect and the rest is sound, a repair can make sense. If there are multiple splits, widespread blistering, or the deck is soft, renewal is usually better value. Craig will show you photos and tell you plainly which he recommends.

### Strip-off and boarding
Replacing a flat roof properly starts with removing the old covering so the deck can be inspected. Damaged boards are replaced so the new covering has a solid, dry base. Skipping this step is one of the most common reasons new flat roofs fail early.

### Renewing with single-ply membranes
Craig is an approved installer of Armourplan, Fatra and Sarnafil. These systems replace older felt and bitumen with a single continuous sheet sealed at the seams, reducing the number of places water can get in.

### Typical roofs renewed
Most flat roof renewals are on rear extensions, garages, dormers, porches and linking roofs between buildings. Customers such as May P. and Pauline S. have had their flat roofs replaced and renewed by the team.

### Covering Perth, Dundee and beyond
Flat roof replacement is available across Perthshire and Angus, including Perth, Blairgowrie, Dundee, Pitlochry, Alyth, Coupar Angus and Aberfeldy.

### What happens to the old roof
The old covering is stripped off so the deck can be seen and checked. This is the only way to know for certain whether the boarding is sound. Where it is, it can stay; where it has softened from past leaks, new boarding goes down. Laying a new covering over a wet or failing deck is one of the most common reasons new flat roofs fail early, and Craig won&#x27;t do it.

### Choosing a system
Craig is an approved installer of Armourplan, Fatra and Sarnafil single-ply membranes. He&#x27;ll explain the options for your roof when he quotes. Each is a continuous sheet sealed at the joins, which replaces the multiple layers and seams of older felt roofs with a far simpler waterproof skin.

### Living with the work
Most flat roof renewals are on extensions and garages, so you can usually carry on living normally while the work is done. Craig will tell you if any rooms below need clearing, and the team keeps disruption and mess to a minimum.

### Signs it&#x27;s time to replace
If you&#x27;ve had the same flat roof patched two or three times, if the surface has splits in several places, if water pools across large areas, or if the room below has a persistent damp smell, renewal is likely better value than another repair. Craig will give you an honest recommendation either way.

### What to expect from your free quote
When you get in touch, Craig arranges a time to come and look at the roof. He&#x27;ll go up, look at the problem properly and take photos so you can see exactly what he&#x27;s seen, which matters on a part of your home you can&#x27;t easily check yourself. You&#x27;ll then get a clear price for the work, with no pressure and no obligation to go ahead. If something can be repaired rather than replaced, he&#x27;ll tell you. If the roof is beyond repair, he&#x27;ll explain why.

### Why a small, owner-led team makes a difference
Ericht Roofing is a small, hands-on team led by Craig. That means the person who quotes your job is the person responsible for doing it, and the person you phone if you have a question. There&#x27;s no hand-off between a salesperson and a subcontractor you&#x27;ve never met. Customers pick up on this in their reviews: they describe Craig as honest, genuine, punctual and hard working, and many come back to him for further work.

### Preparing for the work
Before work starts, Craig will talk you through what&#x27;s happening and roughly how long it will take. It helps to clear access to the side of the house where the work is being done, move cars away from the driveway if materials need to be dropped there, and let neighbours know if access passes their property. Throughout the job the team keeps the site tidy, a point customers mention again and again.
