Skip to content Traditional “felt and chips” roofs are a thing of the past. In London’s fluctuating climate, old-fashioned bitumen eventually cracks, leading to “ponding” water and internal leaks. At Jade Roofing Experts, we replace failing structures with modern, high-performance membranes designed to stay watertight for up to 50 years.
Whether you have a leaking extension in Wandsworth, a garage in Romford, or a balcony in Central London, we provide “fit and forget” solutions. Every flat roof replacement we undertake is engineered for perfect drainage and thermal efficiency.

We use premium resins to create a monolithic, joint-free skin over your roof. It is completely impact-resistant, making it the perfect choice for London homes where window cleaners or tradespeople need roof access.
EPDM is a single-ply synthetic rubber that doesn’t crack, rot, or peel. Because it’s highly flexible, it handles the “settling” of London’s Victorian foundations without breaking the waterproof seal.
When we replace your roof, we can upgrade you to a “Warm Roof.” By installing rigid PIR insulation above the deck, we eliminate condensation and trap heat in your home, meeting the latest UK Building Regulations.
We prioritize cold-applied systems (GRP/EPDM). This means no open flames on your property, significantly reducing fire risk and often lowering your home insurance premiums.
We don't just "lay a cover." We use bespoke timber firrings to correct the slope of your roof, ensuring water never pools.
All our flat roof replacements come with a 20 to 25-year warranty on both materials and workmanship.
London gardens are small. We ensure all old debris is bagged and removed immediately, leaving your property spotless.
