Flat Roof Replacement in Bloemfontein

A flat roof past its lifespan cannot be patched indefinitely. When the substrate has failed and waterproofing has broken down across the surface, replacement is more cost-effective than repeated repairs. We replace flat roofs with torch-on bitumen membrane, liquid-applied systems or raised IBR sheeting, correctly detailed and drained.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a torch-on flat roof last?

A correctly installed torch-on system lasts 15–20 years in Bloemfontein conditions. Product quality and detailing at upstands and drains are the main variables.

Can I convert a flat roof to a pitched roof?

Yes. We can design and build a lightweight pitched roof structure over an existing flat roof, which gives better long-term weather performance. This is quoted as a larger structural project.
