Torch-On Felt Roofing in Hatfield

Standing water, cracked felt and laps that have peeled back at the edges are the usual warning signs on a felt roof. TNR Roofing Services repairs and replaces torch-on felt roofs on homes and commercial properties in Hatfield, and we check the boards beneath before anything is quoted.

Our work covers the AL9 and AL10 postcode districts from our base in Hemel Hempstead. Felt is one of three flat roof systems we install, so if GRP or EPDM would serve your roof better we say so, but for many garages and modest extensions felt is the sensible budget choice.

How a Hatfield Felt Roof Quote Is Worked Out

Hatfield felt roof quotes are built from the following, each assessed during the free survey:

  • The number of felt layers specified, from a two-layer system to a heavier three-layer build-up
  • How much old felt and loose chippings need stripping and taking away
  • The condition of the deck boards and how many need replacing before the new felt goes down
  • Upstands, abutments, roof lights and outlets that the felt has to be dressed around
  • Safe access to the roof, such as a tower or scaffold on a taller extension

How it works

The Stages of a Hatfield Felt Roofing Job

What happens from your first call to the finished work.

  1. Free Survey and Deck Check

    We look for splits, blisters, lifted laps and standing water on the existing felt, and test the deck for soft or sagging areas, so the quote reflects what is really there.

  2. Stripping and Priming

    Old felt and loose chippings are removed, rotten boards are replaced, and the deck is cleaned and primed so the new layers bond firmly.

  3. Torching on the Layers

    The base sheet is torched onto the deck, then the mineral cap sheet is bonded over it with the laps staggered so no joint sits above another.

  4. Edges, Upstands and Handover

    Felt is dressed up walls and finished at the drip trims and outlets. We clear old felt and offcuts from site, then review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Is torch-on felt safe to lay on my property?

Torch-on felt is bonded with a gas torch, so the work is planned to keep the flame away from exposed timber, and the roof is checked once torching has finished. Our public liability insurance covers the work we carry out at your property.

Should I worry about standing water on my felt roof?

It is worth having it looked at. We check for standing water at every survey, along with splits and blisters, because it shows where the roof is holding water instead of shedding it into the gutter.

Who handles planning questions in AL9 and AL10?

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council. Re-felting a roof rarely needs consent, but listed buildings and properties in conservation areas can have their own rules, so it is worth checking first.

Can you re-felt the roof of a commercial unit in Hatfield?

Yes. We lay felt on workshops, shops and other commercial premises, and we plan access and timing with you so the business can keep running where possible.
