What are the advantages of having a fibreglass roof?

Fibreglass roofing is slowly gaining popularity in the roofing industry, making it one to watch out for. Its use of glass fibre and polyester resin makes it especially reliable not just for flat roofing, but also for arched shapes and sloping roofs. If you are looking to invest in a new roof or want a roof replacement, here are some advantages of getting a fibreglass roof.

Waterproof

Before a fibreglass roof is installed, it exists in liquid form. It is then laid down in laminate form, eliminating the likelihood of joins or seams. The absence of gaps during installation means that you no longer have to worry about water leaks and reroofing for a couple of years. In addition to this, the topcoat also provides a sleek look for your property.

Lightweight

Fibreglass roofing is light, given its composition of materials. If your underlay needs a light roof, go for fibreglass. Its weight is one of the reasons most property owners use it for new roof designs. Such a characteristic may have most thinking that it is fragile, but it is one of the most reliable roofing solutions available. A fibreglass roof offers uncompromised protection and eliminates frequent reroofing.

Easy maintenance

A fibreglass roof is, by far, one of the best options when it comes to maintenance. All you need to do is clean your roof with a hose or a brush where there is debris. These easy maintenance tips will have your rooftop looking like a new roof all year round.

Weatherproof

The top finish of a fibreglass roof makes it weather-resistant, ensuring durability even in the harshest conditions. If you have flat roofing on your property, there is no need to worry as the fibreglass holds well in storms and extreme sun. It is also fire resistant, allowing you to save on roof replacement costs in case of property damage.

Durability

If you want a worthwhile investment, consider fibreglass roofing. It guarantees you 20 years of quality service without roof repairs. Read more about the benefits of flat roofing here.

Can I repair a flat roof myself?

Back in the day, particularly when flat roofs were frequently made of a mixture of felt and bitumen, repairs were hazardous, complicated affairs. Thankfully, modern roofing technology means that, in some cases, it’s perfectly possible for an able householder to repair small leaks themselves. Whilst some forms of leak clearly call for a professional (for example multiple leaks, a complete re-roofing project, weakness in the substructure or a leak in an asphalt roof where heat treatment will be needed), smaller leaks in rubber membrane or EPDM roofs can usually be fixed by a competent amateur. Painted on repairs are fast and effective Recent advances in roofing technology mean that there are now several products on the market which can simply be painted on to a small leak in order to seal it. Provided you know what material your  flat roof  is made of, it’s simply a case of matching the product to the material, then applying the solution in liquid form to create a fast curing bond.  If y
