Kessingland is a straightforward village of bungalows, chalet-style homes, and modest semis sitting directly on the Suffolk coast — and flat roofs are about as common here as pitched ones.
The bungalows that make up much of Kessingland's housing stock frequently have flat-roofed rear extensions, garages, or lean-tos that were added in the 1970s and 1980s. At that age, the original felt is almost certainly failing or already leaking. We're based in Lowestoft, less than five miles up the A12, so Kessingland is essentially on our doorstep — we cover the village regularly and don't charge travel time to get here.
Given the village's exposed position between the sea and the low-lying land toward the Broads, we strongly recommend EPDM rubber or GRP rather than a like-for-like felt replacement. Both systems handle wind uplift and driving rain better than felt, and both can be installed on the shallow pitches common on bungalow extensions. Flat roof repairs in Kessingland start from around £300; full replacement of a typical bungalow extension roof runs £800–£1,400. Call us to take a look and give you a firm quote.
