Ever wondered why you rarely see flat roofs on house garages anymore? Our house, along with all the other houses on our estate built in the 70s came with a flat and leaky garage roof. Faced with a bill of £1000 for a new roof I chose instead to repair and waterproof the whole roof using Isoflex Liquid Rubber, The protective gravel was removed and then the roof was coated with first the primer and then the Liquid Rubber. That was in 1980 and since then, apart from the occasional small leak, the roof remains water tight. The initial cost of re-coating was about £400 (1980 prices) and since then cost maybe £100 on Isoflex to fix small leaks. By checking for leaks regularly and keeping the roof free of silt, moss and leaves, a felt roof’s life can be extended indefinitely.
