Flat Roofing
Gibraltar's coastal position means flat roofs here take more of a battering from salt-laden wind and weather than further inland. C R Smith & Son fits felt, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass systems across Gibraltar, choosing the covering that copes best with coastal exposure.
C R Smith & Son covers Gibraltar (PE24) and the surrounding villages, including Orby, Welton le Marsh, Gunby, Bratoft and Thorpe St Peter.
Cost
There's no single price for flat roofing in Gibraltar, since every roof is different. What we can promise is a free, no-obligation written quote with a full breakdown before any work starts. The main things that affect cost are:
What's included
Gibraltar's flat roofs range from small porch and garage coverings to larger outbuilding roofs, so getting the deck and falls right matters as much as the covering itself.
Systems we fit
Not every flat roof in Gibraltar needs the same covering. The right system depends on the building, the budget and how the roof will be used, so here's how the three systems we fit compare.
Felt is still a common, budget-friendly choice on smaller roofs like porches and garden stores, where a straightforward covering does the job without a large outlay. It's quick to fit and easy to repair, though it has the shortest lifespan of the three systems we offer.
For extensions and outbuildings that need to shrug off standing water for years without fuss, EPDM rubber is usually our first recommendation. It comes as a single seamless sheet, so there are far fewer joints to fail than with felt.
GRP fibreglass gives a hard, walkable finish, which suits flat roofs that double as access routes or sit above storage areas. It's more expensive to fit than felt but forms a genuinely seamless, glass-like surface once cured.

How it works
On a lone property near Gibraltar Point, a flat roof is hit by wind from every direction, so this is how we lay one:
Survey and quote
We check the deck, the falls and every edge, note how exposed the roof is on all sides, and give you a written quote.
Choose a calm window
Flat roof systems need dry, settled weather to bond properly, so we book the job for a spell when the coastal wind drops.
Strip and lay
The old covering comes off, the deck is repaired or replaced, and the new system is laid with edges bonded and trims screwed down.
Check and clear
We check the upstands, clear outlets of sand and grit, make sure water drains off and take the waste away with us.
