GRP Fibreglass Flat Roof Specialists
Serving Pool Hey, Lancashire

GRP stands for Glass Reinforced Plastic, but you might know it better as fibreglass. It's a really strong, modern material we use to create a completely seamless and watertight covering for your flat roof. Think of it like a tough, durable shell that protects your home from the weather for many, many years. It's a fantastic choice for extensions, garages, dormers, and even balconies, offering a quality finish for your property.

Good question! While felt roofs have been around for ages, GRP offers some serious advantages. Unlike felt, which can crack, blister, and suffer from seam failures over time, a GRP fibreglass roof is seamless, meaning there are no weak points for water to get in. It's incredibly durable, genuinely 100% waterproof, and needs very little maintenance. You're looking at a solution that often comes with a much longer guarantee, giving you real peace of mind and proving itself to be a truly reliable choice for your home.

This is one of GRP's standout features! When installed correctly by specialists with the right expertise, a quality GRP fibreglass roof can easily last for 20, 30, or even 40 years or more. Its robust nature means it doesn't degrade like traditional materials, making it a very long-term investment for your home. We're Cromar GRP certified specialists, so you can trust in our experience to install a roof that truly stands the test of time. These roofs are built to last for many years.

Absolutely, it's a great choice! Here in Southport, we know all about the challenges of coastal weather – high winds, driving rain, and corrosive salt air. GRP fibreglass is exceptionally resilient against these conditions. It won't lift, crack, or corrode, and its seamless finish means there are no weak spots for the elements to exploit. It offers superior protection, making it a reliable solution for any property near the sea. Our local experience means we understand these specific needs for coastal roofing.

This is where GRP really shines! Compared to other flat roofing systems, GRP fibreglass roofs are incredibly low-maintenance. You won't need to worry about regular patch-ups or sticky repairs. A simple wash down now and then to remove any debris or moss is usually all that's needed to keep it looking great and performing perfectly. It's designed to be a "fit and forget" solution, freeing up your time for other things and keeping your roofing in top condition.

Yes, they certainly can! While GRP is very tough, accidents can happen. If your fibreglass roof does suffer damage, perhaps from a falling branch or impact, it can usually be repaired quickly and effectively. Our experienced team can assess the damage and apply a seamless repair that restores the roof's integrity and watertight performance. You won't need to replace the whole thing, which is a great cost-saving benefit when looking at roof repairs.
