About Old Colwyn Properties
Large 1960s-70s estates on hillside south of A55. Coed Pella Road, Bro Eirwg. Victorian village core around St Catherine's Church. Elevated position above the coast.
Hillside elevation means more frequent and severe frost than coastal towns. South-westerly wind funnelling. 1960s-70s tile stock at end of design life.
Why Old Colwyn Specifically Matters for Flat Roofing
Old Colwyn's hillside bungalow stock — smaller properties on the upper estate streets — frequently has flat-roofed garage and porch sections. The elevation means these sections are more exposed to frost and freeze-thaw than coastal flat roofs. We specify GRP for all Old Colwyn flat roofs — the elevated position makes EPDM seam maintenance impractical as seams can be stressed by the frost cycles.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Deck Assessment Before Any Quote
We inspect the existing deck, joists and falls before quoting. Hidden timber rot is the main reason flat roofs fail early — we find it before it becomes your problem.
Correct Drainage Specification
Falls, outlets and edge details specified correctly for the size and position of the roof. Poor drainage is the enemy of flat roofs — we design it out.
GRP or EPDM — Honest Guidance
GRP fibreglass suits most domestic flat roofs: seamless, hard-wearing, 25+ year lifespan. EPDM suits large areas and complex shapes. We recommend based on your roof, not our margin.
