How We Upgraded a Roofline and Flat Roof in Sawbridgeworth

At SM Roofline, we’re proud to share one of our projects in Sawbridgeworth, where we gave a home a refreshed roofline and a new garage roof. Here’s how we improved both the look and functionality of this property.

What We Did

Front and Rear Roofline Replacement

We began by removing the old fascia, soffits, and guttering, including the downpipes. This gave us the opportunity to check the rafter feet for any signs of rot. Damaged areas were repaired to create a solid foundation for the new fittings.

 

The roofline was replaced with black woodgrain effect uPVC, including:

  • 18mm fascia for strength and a clean finish.
  • 10mm soffit to complement the fascia.
  • Ventilation added at the eaves for airflow.
  • Drip trays and bird combs installed where needed to keep water and pests at bay.

To complete the upgrade, we fitted black deepflow guttering and downpipes for reliable water management and a coordinated appearance.

Garage Flat Roof Replacement

The garage roof was due for an overhaul, so we stripped out all old materials, including the membrane and ply boards. Here’s what went in its place:

 

  • 22mm OSB ply boards to provide a sturdy surface that can safely support foot traffic.
  • A 1.5mm EPDM rubber membrane for a seamless, waterproof layer.
  • Black aluminium wall flashings and black uPVC edge trimmings for a neat, tidy finish.

We also updated the fascia and soffit around the garage and replaced any necessary downpipes to match the main roofline.

How We Worked

  • Quick Turnaround: The project was completed in just three days using our own access equipment, keeping things simple and efficient.
  • Tidy Finish: We left the site spotless, taking all waste with us for hassle-free cleanup.

Benefits for the Homeowner

This home now has:

  • A 10-year guarantee on the roofline.
  • A 20-year guarantee on the flat roof.

The property looks fantastic and is better equipped to handle weather challenges for many years to come.
