Corton's coastal position makes flat roof maintenance a serious business, and we carry out installations and repairs for homeowners and businesses along this stretch of the Suffolk coast.
Corton sits right on the clifftop between Lowestoft and Hopton, and the salt-laden air here is harder on roofing materials than almost anywhere inland. Many of the bungalows and chalet-style homes in the village have low-pitch or flat roofs over extensions and integral garages — and older torch-on felt systems rarely last more than a decade in these exposed conditions. We see a lot of premature failures here.
For properties this close to the sea, we typically recommend EPDM rubber or GRP fibreglass rather than felt — both handle UV exposure and wind-driven rain far better. We're based in Lowestoft, so a survey call to Corton costs us nothing in travel time; call us to arrange a free flat roof inspection at your property.
