Cambridge Roofing –
Cambridge Roofing – The client contacted Cambridge Roofers to assess an old flat roof over swimming pool that was leaking. The client reported that a number of previous contractors had assessed the roof but failed to follow up with quotations for the work. The membrane comprised of a PVC heat-welded single-ply that was brittle and had reached the end of its serviceable lifespan. The client requested two quotations for a 10-year solution (torch-on felt) and a 25-year solution (EPDM) and elected to go with an EPDM roof.
Building Regulations:
The client was informed that insulating the roof to achieve the necessary thermal performance required by Part L1b of building regulations was not a requirement as the works did not involve replacing more than 50% of the total roof covering. As such, the client elected to have a ‘cold roof’ construction with no solid insulation.
