A flat roof replacement strips the old covering from a low-pitched roof and lays a new waterproof system, usually EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass or torch-on felt, over a sound deck with correct falls, upstands, trims and outlets so rainwater drains away.
Whatever prompted you to look into a new flat roof, whether wear and tear, a growing family or plans to move, we can survey your Bedworth home and give you a price in writing. Homes in the West Midlands typically come in at £1,950–£4,400, VAT included, for this kind of work. We also cover Nuneaton, Coventry and Hinckley, and the same steps apply wherever you are in Warwickshire.

Homes in Warwickshire
Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick have timber-framed and Georgian buildings, and Leamington Spa is known for Regency stucco terraces and villas. Nuneaton and Bedworth have brick terraces from their mining and industrial past, Rugby mixes Victorian housing with large new estates, and southern villages near the Cotswolds use limestone and blue lias.
Regency and period homes may need render repairs, decorating and windows that suit conservation areas. Terraces suit loft conversions and extensions, and newer estate homes often take garage conversions and landscaping.
For a new flat roof in Bedworth, this means checking things like wall construction, roof structure and existing services before we put a figure on paper.
Do you need permission in Bedworth?
Planning law differs across the UK. For a home in Bedworth, it is the England rules below that count, and we check them with the council ahead of any quote.
Re-roofing a house with similar materials does not usually need planning permission in England. Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent if the covering changes.
Replacing more than a quarter of a roof’s covering counts as renovation under Building Regulations, so the work is notified and the roof insulation may need upgrading. Bats are protected across the UK; if they roost under roof tiles, soffits or fascias, work stops and a licensed ecologist advises before it restarts.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
From survey to handover
Survey and measure
We arrange a free site survey on a date convenient to you. We measure up, look at the existing structure and access, and discuss your plans for a new flat roof so the price reflects your home.
Quote in writing
We put everything into a written, fixed-price quote: the specification, what's excluded, staged payments and the expected time on site. Take whatever time you need to decide; there's no pressure to commit.
Booking the work
Before anyone starts, we confirm the programme in writing, check whether consents are required and arrange deliveries. If a skip or scaffolding on the road needs a permit, we apply for it.
Finish and handover
Our trades complete a new flat roof while your point of contact keeps you updated. When everything is finished, we clear the site, take away waste and go through the result with you before handover.
What you can expect from us
Frequently asked questions
How long does a flat roof last?
A well-installed EPDM or GRP flat roof can last 25 years or more, while torch-on felt systems typically last around 15–25 years, depending on quality and exposure. Lifespan depends on correct falls, good detailing at edges and upstands, and keeping outlets clear. Foot traffic, ponding and poor ventilation shorten it. Annual checks help catch small problems early.
Do you cover Nuneaton, Coventry and Hinckley?
Yes. As well as Bedworth, we cover Nuneaton, Coventry and Hinckley and the rest of Warwickshire. Our coverage is UK-wide, so the process is the same wherever you are: a free site survey, a quote in writing that fixes the price for the agreed scope, and one point of contact while the work is planned and carried out.
Why does water sit on my flat roof?
Ponding water on a flat roof is usually caused by inadequate falls, sagging joists, a deck that has dipped or blocked outlets. Small puddles that dry within a day or two are not always a problem, but standing water speeds up wear and finds any weakness. A new roof can be laid on firring strips or tapered insulation to create proper falls. We check falls during the survey.
How long will a new flat roof take?
On a typical home, allow 1–3 days for most roofs. Larger projects, older buildings and extra work found once things are opened up can extend that, while simpler jobs may be shorter. Your quote includes an estimate of time on site, and your point of contact keeps you updated on the programme as the work progresses.
How long does a flat roof replacement take?
Replacing a typical extension or garage flat roof usually takes one to three days. Stripping and any deck repairs come first, then insulation where agreed, the new membrane and the trims and outlets. GRP needs dry weather and time to cure, and we plan around the forecast. Larger roofs or roofs with many rooflights take longer. We confirm timing with your quote.
