SIX THINGS, EVERY JOB
What you get with Eco Roofers
What we typically see on West Yorkshire roofs
West Yorkshire roof-stock is dominated by stone-slate and Welsh slate on Victorian and Edwardian terrace stock through Leeds (LS6/7/8), Bradford (BD1/7/8/9), Halifax, and Huddersfield. Stone-slate match is the single most-common heritage re-roof job here.
Local weather notes. Pennine wet-Atlantic weather — moss growth, valley leaks, and lead-flashing failure are recurring problems on older stock.
Approved Document L 2022 sets the thermal performance baseline for new roofs (U ≤ 0.16 W/m²K pitched, ≤ 0.18 flat). On flat roofs, BS 6229:2018 sets the design and falls standard. Eco Roofers will guide you through any Building Control notification needed on your job.

More questions answered
When is felt the right choice?
Tight budget + short ownership horizon (planning to sell within 5 years). Or shed/outbuilding where 10-year lifespan is acceptable.
Is EPDM hard to repair if damaged?
No — EPDM is one of the easiest membranes to patch. Self-adhesive patch kit, £20-£40 cost, lasts as long as the surrounding membrane.
Do you fit both?
Yes — we fit EPDM, GRP, single-ply, liquid-applied, and felt. We recommend EPDM for >90% of UK domestic flat-roof jobs.
