Our experience allows us to tackle each roofing system project in a professional way. Our team in Rhippinllwyd can save time and money while ensuring that all important elements are covered, delivering high-quality and cost-effective better-than-DIY installation for any property.
Our decade and a half of operation has also allowed us to build up connections with a range of suppliers, meaning that we can get flat roof materials sourced quickly from reliable and well-trusted partners that will not delay the project any longer than absolutely necessary.
We can install a range of flat roofing material types, with each flat roofing material fitting into specific niches. Every roof surface we install in Rhippinllwyd is tailored to meet the client's needs right from the planning stage.
Some surface options are weaker against physical wear and tear, whilst others might suffer under UV or infrared light. Our team can guide you to whichever option is best for your situation, taking into account the kind of roof construction you are looking for.
Felt roofing uses two to three layers of bitumen sheets, lasting between 15 to 30 years when well maintained. While not especially tough, these are cost-effective materials that work well if you need to avoid any extra cost for new roofing systems.
Although felt can be weak, our team work hard to ensure that this flat roof replacement lasts as long as possible, even with its tendency to crack slightly as it ages.
As a flat roof material, felt layer systems are simple to install, making them a common choice for homeowners that need their old roofs replaced quickly.
Our team try to maximize the benefits of each flat roofing option we install, including felt. This means that we put a lot of effort into minimizing the flaws behind these weaker materials, trying to guarantee top performance from any materials that we work with.
Modified bitumen roofing systems use a flexible material made from asphalt and a mineral topcoat and can often be self-adhesive. These are incredibly easy for contractors like us to install and allow for a quick yet durable new roof installation that does not require a time-consuming installation process.
These bitumen roof options are very durable, but their fast installation still takes effort and skill that most DIY installations wo not be able to offer. It also needs to be installed carefully to prevent leaks around the edges of each roll, especially if a roll is not installed correctly on the roof itself.
Our bitumen flat roofs are installed carefully to take advantage of the material's main benefits, using all of our skills to simplify the installation process.
We work hard to guarantee that every flat roof is as high-quality as possible, especially when using materials like bitumen that can easily be installed poorly by somebody without the right experience.
An EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber membrane provides a very durable flat roofing option, with a good EPDM rubber membrane being hard to damage.
Most EPDM rubber roofing is also good at avoiding natural wear and tear from things like moss and can be cost-effective if the right rubber roofing options are chosen. It is also more waterproof than many other options, making it good for dealing with bad weather.
We provide effective EPDM rubber roofing installation, keeping the EPDM rubber membrane seamless to ensure maximum EPDM rubber roofing quality and minimal chance of leaks.
If EPDM rubber roofing ever suffers enough damage to cause long-term issues, our team are able to offer short-notice repairs.
EPDM rubber membrane materials are some of the most popular, and most homeowners gravitate towards EPDM membrane materials. Our team are expert at installing EPDM membrane flat roofs in a way that gets the most benefits out of the EPDM materials, as well as the membrane layer design.
Although flat roof material choices might not be as varied as other roof types, there are still a lot of options. Each new flat roof may have to choose between different kinds of EPDM rubber coating, with different commercial brands offering different benefits with each EPDM rubber membrane.
Our team can help you find the best suitable flat roof material for your new flat roofs, whether that is something highly resistant or something that can be set up quickly as a replacement roof to save time.
For example, EPDM roofing can come from many companies, and each may have its own specific types of EPDM rubber roofing. Our team can help you select the right EPDM roofing for your property and ensure that the new EPDM roof materials are installed to the right standard of quality and reliability.
We can also offer repair options for a range of flat roofing types, helping clients repair their flat roofs easily. Each of our flat roof repair experts can conduct proper repairs to keep your flat roof in ideal condition, from asphalt bitumen to EPDM roofing.
Every roof wears down eventually, and we make sure that each new flat roof we construct is as highly resistant as possible. However, a built-up roof will eventually need repairs, something we can offer easily regardless of your flat roofing materials.
Our team can also provide flat roof repair services even when the flat roof is not directly damaged. Keeping your flat roof highly resistant and sturdy means maintaining it regularly, something we can do as part of our regular flat roof repair options.
Homeowners who maintain their flat roof installations avoid the price of replacing that flat roof regularly. Instead of paying for replacement flat roofing in the future, maintaining your existing flat roof can save money in both the short-term and long-term.
Our team have worked with every major flat roof material option, from EPDM rubber to hot tar, and understands how to keep them maintained. Maintaining your flat roofs ensures that you do not need to fix (or start replacing) those flat roofs later on whenever they finally break.
The cost of a flat roof in the UK varies between £50 and £110 per square meter on average. Of course, this price varies based on a range of factors.
The price involved in getting flat roofs can be affected by things like:
The size of the flat roof that needs installing or replacing
The materials you choose for the new flat roof
Whether you are installing a new flat roof or adding a flat roof as a replacement for existing roofing (and whether the original flat roof needs to be removed)
Whether the new roof materials use a layer system and how long it takes to apply all layers
The time and effort required for installing the new roof
The complexity of the roof installation
Extra steps that are required to get the roof in ideal condition, such as having to replace plywood supports or the roof under-layer
Extra features such as insulation and heat-retention layers
The exact cost of your new roof is not easy to estimate since each roof ends up at a different price. Even two roof projects of the same general size and material might cost different amounts since both flat roofs will still need different approaches.
Our team help our clients understand the costs behind their flat roofs, providing accurate cost estimates for each flat roof project before we even begin planning out the flat roofs.
This allows clients to adapt their choices to find flat roofs that fit within their own comfortable budget rather than being pressured into choosing flat roofs that they can't afford.
DIY flat roof installation is possible, but attempting DIY flat roof work is also tough.
A DIY project often results in worse material installation quality than a non-DIY flat roof would offer, and poor DIY flat roof attempts might even damage the roofs themselves.
While you can still do DIY flat roof maintenance in some situations, it is best to avoid DIY flat roof installation and use professionals like us instead. This also goes for DIY flat roof replacing, which can be even more complex than installation.
The exact costs involved in getting a new flat roof are hard to judge. Our team can help you estimate the costs with an accurate price quote based on your roof plans.
A full project tends to take anywhere between £2,000 to £6,000 to complete, although these are only estimates. A project replacing an existing roof or adding new roofs could be much higher or lower, depending on the specifics.
The average cost of flat roofs in the UK per meter squared is around £50 to £110.
This is because flat roofs can vary so heavily that there is no single set price. Different roofs cost different amounts, and the project itself might alter how much you are paying.
A roof that is half as large as another will not necessarily cost half as much, either. Cost varies in so many ways that estimating is difficult, but our team can give you an accurate price quote based on your overall plan and real data from within the industry.
While DIY flat roof options might sound appealing, working with professionals like us is the easiest way to get a flat roof that actually meets your needs.
While it might sound easy to replace existing rubber EPDM roofs with new rubber EPDM roofs on a residential home, doing it yourself can be risky.
Not only does this risk things like poor heat retention and sunlight or infrared light damage, but working with materials like EPDM rubber can be incredibly difficult without the right tools.
EPDM is one of the most popular flat roofing materials on the market. More than half of customers usually aim for EPDM due to its lower cost and durability, although there are still materials more durable than EPDM.
EPDM is also very waterproof, allowing it to keep the roof from leaking more effectively. However, if maintained poorly, EPDM can shrink or suffer punctures and seam failures.
Like any material, it is the right option for some roofs but not for others. Our team can help you find the material choices that make the most sense for your project.
If you want to know more about what we can offer and the kind of flat roof options we are able to provide, then get in touch and talk to our specialists. We can guide you towards an option that suits your needs and does not push you over your budget.
The sooner you get in contact, the sooner we can begin work to help you plan out your new flat roof. Do not be afraid to ask any questions you might have - we are always happy to help potential new clients.
We offer a huge range of flat roof options, from simple felt roof options to more durable and reliable EPDM rubber. Whether you are looking for a full EPDM overhaul of your existing roof or need a new one built from scratch, we can provide the services you need.
Our expert Rhippinllwyd team understands how to deliver well-built roof installations every single time, using our wide range of skills to guarantee the best possible quality as often as we can.
Do not hesitate to contact us and learn more about what we are able to offer, whether it is installation and maintenance or repair and replacement. Our team are equipped to deal with any kind of roofing project, no matter how complex.

With scripts that drew a clear picture of the threat of scurvy, the residual pain of the Civil War, the strained relations with Native Americans, and the sorrows stoically endured by pioneer women, Fort Laramie was an honest reflection of the difficulties and danger of life on an isolated Army post in the early 1880's.

LOS ANGELES (AP) ― Swept by the barefoot running craze, ultramarathoner Ryan Carter ditched his sneakers for footwear that mimics the experience of striding unshod.
The first time he tried it two years ago, he ran a third of a mile on grass. Within three weeks of switching over, he was clocking six miles on the road.
During a training run with a friend along a picturesque bike path near downtown Minneapolis, Carter suddenly stopped, unable to take another step. His right foot seared in pain.
The first time he tried it two years ago, he ran a third of a mile on grass. Within three weeks of switching over, he was clocking six miles on the road.
During a training run with a friend along a picturesque bike path near downtown Minneapolis, Carter suddenly stopped, unable to take another step. His right foot seared in pain.
"It was as though someone had taken a hammer and hit me with it," he recalled.
Carter convinced his friend to run on without him. He hobbled home and rested his foot. When the throbbing became unbearable days later, he went to the doctor. The diagnosis: a stress fracture.
As more avid runners and casual athletes experiment with barefoot running, doctors say they are treating injuries ranging from pulled calf muscles to Achilles tendinitis to metatarsal stress fractures, mainly in people who ramped up too fast. In serious cases, they are laid up for several months.
Many converts were inspired by Christopher McDougall's 2009 best-seller "Born To Run," widely credited with sparking the barefoot running trend in the Western world. The book focuses on an Indian tribe in Mexico whose members run long distances without pain in little more than sandals.
While the ranks of people running barefoot or in "barefoot running shoes" have grown in recent years, they still represent the minority of runners. Some devotees swear they are less prone to injuries after kicking off their athletic shoes though there's no evidence that barefoot runners suffer fewer problems.
In some cases, foot specialists are noticing injuries arising from the switch to barefoot, which uses different muscles. Shod runners tend to have a longer stride and land on their heel compared with barefoot runners, who are more likely to have a shorter stride and land on the midfoot or forefoot. Injuries can occur when people transition too fast and put too much pressure on their calf and foot muscles, or don't shorten their stride and end up landing on their heel with no padding.
Podiatrist Paul Langer used to see one or two barefoot running injuries a month at his Twin Cities Orthopedics practice in Minneapolis. Now he treats between three and four a week.
"Most just jumped in a little too enthusiastically," said Langer, an experienced runner and triathlete who trains in his barefoot running shoes part of the week.
Bob Baravarian, chief of podiatry at the UCLA Medical Center in Santa Monica, Calif., said he's seen "a fair number" of heel injuries and stress fractures among first-timers who are not used to the different forces of a forefoot strike.
"All of a sudden, the strain going through your foot is multiplied manifold" and problems occur when people don't ease into it, he said.
Running injuries are quite common. Between 30 to 70 percent of runners suffer from repetitive stress injuries every year and experts can't agree on how to prevent them. Some runners with chronic problems have seized on barefoot running as an antidote, claiming it's more natural. Others have gone so far as to demonize sneakers for their injuries.
Pre-human ancestors have walked and run in bare feet for millions of years often on rough surfaces, yet researchers surprisingly know very little about the science of barefoot running.
The modern running shoe with its cushioned heel and stiff sole was not invented until the 1970s. And in parts of Africa and other places today, running barefoot is still a lifestyle.
The surging interest has researchers racing for answers. Does barefoot running result in fewer injuries? What kinds of runners will benefit most from switching over? What types of injuries do transitioning barefoot runners suffer and how to prevent them?
While some runners completely lose the shoes, others opt for minimal coverage. The oxymoron "barefoot running shoes" is like a glove for the feet designed to protect from glass and other hazards on the ground. Superlight minimalist shoes are a cross between barefoot shoes and traditional sneakers - there's little to no arch support and they're lower profile.
Greg Farris decided to try barefoot running to ease the pain on the outside of his knee, a problem commonly known as runner's knee. He was initially shoeless - running minutes at a time and gently building up. After three months, he switched to barefoot running shoes after developing calluses.
Halfway through a 5K run in January, he felt his right foot go numb, but he pushed on and finished the race. He saw a doctor and got a steroid shot, but the pain would not quit. He went to see another doctor, who took an X-ray and told him he had a stress fracture.
Farris was in a foot cast for three months. He recently started running again - in sneakers.
"I don't think my body is made to do it," he said, referring to barefoot running.
Experts say people can successfully lose the laces. The key is to break in slowly. Start by walking around barefoot. Run no more than a quarter mile to a mile every other day in the first week. Gradually increase the distance. Stop if bones or joints hurt. It can take months to make the change.
"Don't go helter skelter at the beginning," said Dr. Jeffrey Ross, an associate clinical professor of medicine at Baylor College of Medicine and chief of the Diabetic Foot Clinic at Ben Taub General Hospital in Houston.
A year and a half ago, Ross saw a steady stream - between three and six barefoot runners a week - with various aches and pain. It has since leveled off to about one a month.
Ross doesn't know why. It's possible that fewer people are trying it or those baring their feet are doing a better job adapting to the new running style.
There's one group foot experts say should avoid barefoot running: People with decreased sensation in their feet, a problem common among diabetics, since they won't be able to know when they get injured.
Harvard evolutionary biologist Daniel Lieberman runs a lab devoted to studying the effects of running form on injury rates. He thinks form matters more than footwear or lack of - don't overstride, have good posture and land gently.
In a 2010 study examining different running gaits, Lieberman and colleagues found that striking the ground heel first sends a shock up through the body while barefoot runners tend to have a more springy step. Even so, more research is needed into whether barefoot running helps avoid injury.
"The long and the short of it is that we know very little about how to help all runners - barefoot and shod - prevent getting injured. Barefoot running is no panacea. Shoes aren't either," said Lieberman, who runs barefoot except during the New England winters.
Carter, the ultramarathoner, blames himself for his injury. Before he shed his shoes, he never had a problem that kept him off his feet for two months.
In April, he ran his fourth 100-mile race - with shoes. Meanwhile, his pair of barefoot running shoes is collecting dust in the closet.

Something...spelled correctly.
And don't forget! This decorator also offers memorable honeymoon cakes:
When professional cakes go horribly, hilariously wrong.
What the heck is the HonyMoonR cake covered in - slices of melon?
Should definitely STAY in Vegas!!
Texting pirate... loved that! Your sense of humour amazes me everytime.
What is that horrid green thing in the second pic?
Jello? Are they toothless?
Green bundt cake? Are they color blind?
Can't even address the mithspellermementing.........
I love that the second cake is an anagram of "horny moon".
This is the strangest coincidence. My cousin and her fiance are driving to Vegas this weekend to get married. They're leaving today, actually.
xD This makes me happy.
That second one's more a spacing wreck then spelling--assuming that the happy couple enjoyed their Hornymoon. Raowr!
Last of the big spenders, here, yeah.
Can't stop laughing that the wedding celebration is two balls and a half a strawberry. It's not even ... uh, maybe I shouldn't continue.
And then -- you show up with a not so hearty cake for the afterward partiers. Sweet pirate adding his take on it. (wonder who decided to take a slice of the chocolate part before dousing and wrecking?)
"Putrid peaches!!" exclaimed "R"edbeard as he beheld
the wreck deliverrred to his honeymoon cabin.
Congratibtaliony? That's what it looks like to me...
And many 'congratittalions' to you, too.
Gotta love that the first one is presented on what appears to be a 19th century surgical instrument tray.
The second one -- I want to know more -- why an almost heart shape? is that a cheesecake under melon slices or just a cheese? Did anyone eat the "cake" or did they just take the big chocolate thing and run away?
"R" indeed.
WV curter: Don't curter yet; I wanna take a picture of that theer cake first.
I got married in Vegas, but there was no cake involved. I think I'm glad now.
Anyway, who needs cake when the hotel gives you coupons for free booze!
I feel like the honeymoon (honymoonR?) cake wouldn't be a horrible idea -- a cake with honeydew -- but the writing just wrecked it. And maybe slightly less honeydew.
HonyMogVR? Huh. Is that sliced cucumber?
That is so awesome. Its almost as if the "artist" thought that the snazzy penmanship would distract from the error!
Texting pirate!!!!!!!!!!!! I am still laughing.
It's like an old style typewriter where sometimes a letter was out of whack and dropped half a line lower than the rest...."horny moon" becomes "hony moonr." Let's face it- if you weren't horny you wouldn't be getting married in the first place.
-Barbara Anne
'Congratiftalions': A well-wishing to strangers you hope against hope not to see again in other pairings. Somewhat in the same line as "Love ya! Mean it!" or "Buh-bye!"
Two donut holes and half a strawberry in what appears to be either caramel sauce or gravy. How very existential. I hope it was complementary -- it certainly wasn't complimentary.
#2 Let's see. A black heart with no e's (ease), in front of which is thin slices of honeydew (honey-do) melon under some fruit -- all of which is atop something that could be 'for display only' or could be a giant peppermint LifeSaver. This thing has so many subliminal messages that I'm going to guess that the wreckerator has been through 'the process' a few times, and can't help letting his cynicism show through.
Finally, the utensils are upside down -- what does that represent?
@Brigette - Honeydew!! Or kiwi. But I'm going with honeydew... it fits the theme. Benefit of the doubt?
"As the texting pirate once said: R."
You had me at the pirate text message. So. Awesome.
BTW we lived in Vegas for 9 years and really loved how Nevadans voted to ban gay marriage claiming that hetero marriage was sacred. Yes. In a place where you can get a drive-through Elvis wedding after filling in your marriage license application with a government-provided golf pencil (I am not kidding).
*Sacred*. Oh yes.
Then again, if you fight for the right to marry, maybe you want to go somewhere where your celebratory dessert can be spelled properly anyway...
That hony moonr cake looks like a gigantic ring of cream cheese disguised with fruit slices. Classy, and delicious.
I believe that this is a fruit platter of sorts...
A close-up inspection of the green "cake" reveals what appears to be an overturned ceramic bowl covered in thinly sliced and terribly over-ripe melon (you can see the melon draped over the lip if the bowl). It is topped with over-ripe peaches which have started to go brown in spots.
Along the bottom edge of the bowl appears to be ice and the peaches on top are still partly frozen, indicating it was frozen (Why, in God's name???? -- unless that was how they kept the chocolate sign attached).
A thoroughly unappetizing display.
I provide a close up of the melon "cake" here
@Anneke, your link returned 404 to me. Clicking on the image in the post usually enlarges, and so was the case here.
Whatever the white thing is, it is frosted and seems not to have a hole in the middle as I first thought. Also, the heart is not black, but dark brown (my bad).
Maybe the wreckerator in the second case is not cynical but just overworked. The first one? I wouldn't hazard a guess.
"Congra-titta-lissy" - well, whatever it takes! That's one suggestively shaped strawberry, if'n you askin' me. But why is it on top of two (differently coloured) balls, and WHAT is that sauce??
Aargh, ice-cream freeze.....
wv: that's a really phoni way to celebrate your happy day!
MC from NZ
That is either half a giant mutant strawberry or the tiniest dessert I've ever seen in my life
Ok, one more theory. I do have a life, I just like to check in here when I have a few minutes. ;-)
Is it just possible that HNY and MNR are the happy couple's pre-nuptial initials? Seeing as how only they are capitalized...
Of course, that disposes of most of the evidence for the cynical decorator theory, but it also sounds nicer. Guess I'm in a Sunday mood.
BTW, it's 92 here. Fall, schmall.
As far as I can tell, the first cake spells:
"The texting pirate..." HAHAHAHA. I quite literally lol'd. My cube-mates are looking at me like I am crazy!
At first I thought it was "Congratuffling," but now I'm leaning toward "Congratitteling."
I didn't even blink at the green cake, I've gotten soo used to seeing this... In Korea most of the cakes are decorated in glossy fruit slices. And I hate it. And the cakes here are NOT tasty, fluffy layers of tasteless buttercream (or too buttery buttercream), variations on whipped cream for icing, and again fluffy layers of tasteless cake... I love Korea but I'm not a fan of fusion anything. I'll try to get some pics of cakes around here the next time I think of it...

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)
We don't have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it's cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.
Payments must be made through Paypal, which accepts all major credit cards. Sorry, but that means no checks or MOs or barter-based chickens.
We ship everything first class USPS, and will do our best to have your package in the mail within 2 days of your order.
