    By overlaying your existing roof with Ultraflex, we save you the cost and disruption of a full strip-out while delivering a fully bonded, seamless waterproof layer backed by a 20-year guarantee.

    Ultraflex FAQs

    The most common questions we get asked about the Ultraflex cold-liquid waterproofing system.

    A domestic extension or garage roof is usually two to four days from set up to handover, including preparation and detailing. Larger commercial roofs are phased in sections, with each section left fully watertight at the end of each working day.

    Replacing an existing flat roof like for like does not normally need planning permission, though it does need to meet current Building Regulations for thermal performance where the roof is over a heated space. New extensions, roof terraces and any work on a listed building or in a conservation area are a different matter and should be checked with your local authority.

    Where the roof covers a heated room, the build-up must meet the current Building Regulations U-value requirement, which in practice means a substantial thickness of rigid insulation as a warm roof above the deck. We specify the correct thickness for your build-up and confirm it in the quotation.

    In most conditions, yes. The resin can be applied down to around freezing on the main roof area and slightly below on details, and it is rainproof in as little as thirty minutes. That makes the installation programme far more predictable through a British autumn and winter than torch-on felt or fibreglass.

    Wherever the deck and insulation are dry and sound, yes, and it is usually the option we recommend. Overlaying removes strip-out and disposal costs and means the building is never left open. Where the insulation is already saturated we will identify it at survey and price for cutting out those areas first.

    A twenty-year guarantee covering both materials and workmanship, issued on completion after our own final inspection, along with a photographic record of the detailing carried out during the installation.
