Felt Roofing Contractors

Felt roofing, also known as reinforced bitumen waterproofing systems, offers a cost-effective solution that is known for its ease of installation. These systems consist of multiple waterproofing layers, providing excellent resistance to mechanical damage and making them highly durable, even under heavy foot traffic.

A properly maintained felt roof can surpass a life expectancy of 40 years, making it a reliable choice for new build and refurbishment projects.
