High-Performance Felt Roofing

What is High-Performance Felt Roofing?

High-performance felt roofing is a durable and cost-effective solution commonly used for flat roofs in both residential and commercial properties. It involves layering rolls of high-quality felt across the roof structure, with each section securely bonded using bitumen to create a seamless, watertight surface.Modern high-performance felt is far superior to older materials, addressing past issues related to wear, tear, and leakage. However, the longevity and effectiveness of any felt roofing system depend heavily on the quality of installation. At Skyline Roofing Solutions LTD, our highly trained and experienced team ensures precision workmanship, eliminating common installation errors and delivering long-lasting results.

How Do We Install It?

For new-build projects, we prefer to be involved during the planning phase or, at the very least, before construction is complete. This allows us to advise on the best approach and integration of the roofing system. However, the majority of our felt roofing installations involve replacing or repairing existing systems that have failed or are nearing the end of their lifespan. Our expert team is fully qualified to remove old roofing materials and install modern, high-performance membranes while adhering to the strictest safety standards, particularly during the torch-on sealing process.

Benefits of High-Performance Felt Roofing

✅ Cost-Effective – A highly affordable roofing option that provides excellent waterproofing and protection at a fraction of the cost of alternative solutions.
✅ Long-Lasting – With an average lifespan of up to 30 years, and most suppliers offering guarantees of at least 25 years, this roofing system delivers outstanding value.
✅ Lightweight – Ideal for structures that cannot support heavier roofing materials, making it a versatile option for various applications.
✅ Durable & Resilient – Modern felt is designed to resist tears and punctures, offering superior performance compared to older versions.
✅ Customisable Appearance – Available in a range of colours, high-performance felt roofing can be tailored to complement the aesthetics of your property.

Are There Any Drawbacks?

The primary limitation of felt roofing is its lifespan—while durable, it does not last as long as some other roofing materials, such as some cold applied or hotmelt systems. However, given its cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and reliability, a properly installed high-performance felt roof by Skyline Roofing Solutions LTD will provide decades of protection and peace of mind.
