Leaking flat roof in Dawlish?
Ayre Roofing repair leaking flat roofs across Dawlish, Dawlish Warren, Holcombe and Starcross: felt, EPDM rubber and GRP. We trace the leak to where it starts and fix it properly, and if the roof is past repairing we'll tell you straight.
Coastal flat roofs fail in predictable places. Wind lifts the edge trims and peels back old felt. Salt and sun harden it until it cracks. Rain is driven up behind wall flashings, and outlets block so water sits on the roof. Most of these are repairable if they're caught early.

When a repair isn't the answer
A repair carries our 1-year guarantee on remedial work and is the right call when the roof is sound apart from one spot. But if the felt is brittle all over, or the deck underneath has gone soft, a patch just moves the leak along. Then a new flat roof, usually EPDM rubber, is better value. Stefan in Dawlish went that way, and six months on reported no further leaks.
Flat roof repairs in Dawlish: common questions
Why does my flat roof leak when it's windy?
Wind lifts edge trims and old felt and drives rain under flashings. It's very common on coastal roofs and usually repairable.
Can you repair a balcony that leaks into the room below?
Yes. It's often the door threshold, the outlet or the upstand at the wall. We find it and fix it.
Is it worth repairing an old felt roof?
If it's sound apart from one area, yes. If it's cracked all over, a new EPDM roof is better value than patching it every winter.

What our customers say
“Undertook work as advised late 2023/early 2024 and right from the start Chris was proactive in keeping me up to speed with progress and requesting instruction when the inevitable snag was encountered. Site was left clean and tidy despite it being a fairly messy job! It's been 6 months now and no sign of any further leaks from the roof so I'm very happy with the outcome.”
“Chris was very helpful in diagnosing the exact problem and then suggesting an alternative, cheaper, but equally good remedy to the problem.”
“Very happy with my new garage roof. Everything was left very tidy.”
