However, a flat roof extension is considerably nicer and can fall under permitted development rules, so long as the work adds no more than 100 square metres of floor space to your home.
Flat roofs are perfect for extensions because they keep costs low and enable you to create an extension that blends in with the main building. Gabled roofs are much more expensive to erect and have no functional advantage over flat roofs.
Flat roofs can also serve as a platform. You can install bi-fold or balcony doors on the floor above, allowing you to walk out onto the flat extension. The possibilities are endless, and a flat roof could improve your quality of life at home.
We can help with:
• Conceptualisation and design
• Warm roofing systems
• GRP flat roofing
• EPDM flat roofing
• Structurally supported platforms
