Flat Roof Scaffolding in Kent & South East London
Scaffolding for flat roof replacement, repair and new build across Kent and South East London. Extensions, commercial flat roofs and parapet access.
Scaffolding for flat roofs
Flat roofs are common across Kent and South East London, particularly on rear extensions, commercial buildings, garages and older residential properties. Flat roof replacement, repair and new build all require scaffolding that provides safe working access at the roof edge and to the roof surface.
Flat roof scaffolding has specific requirements that differ from pitched roof scaffolding. The scaffold must provide access to the roof perimeter for parapet work, edge protection for workers on the roof surface, and often access to the underside of the roof structure for insulation or structural work. We assess each flat roof project individually and provide the scaffold that is appropriate for the work.
We cover the full area from our base in Hextable, including all of Kent and South East London.
Types of flat roof work we scaffold
Flat roof replacement
Full replacement of EPDM, felt, GRP (fibreglass), asphalt and other flat roof systems. We provide scaffolding that gives roofers safe access to the entire roof surface and perimeter.
Flat roof repairs
Patch repairs, blister repairs, seam repairs and drainage repairs on existing flat roofs. We provide targeted scaffolding for flat roof repair work.
Flat roof extensions
New build flat roof extensions are one of the most common domestic construction projects in South East London. We provide scaffolding for the full construction of flat roof extensions.
Parapet wall repairs
Parapet walls on flat roof buildings require periodic repointing, coping stone replacement and waterproofing. We provide scaffolding that gives access to the parapet from both sides.
Roof light and skylight installation
Installing roof lights and skylights in flat roofs requires safe working access at roof level. We provide scaffolding for roof light installation projects.
Green roof installation
Green roof systems on flat roofs require scaffolding for the installation of the waterproofing membrane, drainage layer and growing medium. We provide scaffolding for green roof installation projects.
Edge protection for flat roof work
Workers on flat roofs are at risk of falling from the roof edge. The Work at Height Regulations 2005 require that edge protection is provided for all work on flat roofs. We provide edge protection as part of our flat roof scaffolding, either as a scaffold handrail system or as a standalone edge protection system.
We can also provide a standalone edge protection system for flat roofs where a full scaffold is not required, such as for maintenance work on an accessible flat roof.
