At DK Roofing & Building Limited, we often get asked about roofing felt, a crucial component in flat roofing systems. In this article, we will explore what roofing felt is, its uses, and the options available in Kent.

Roofing felt, also known as underlayment or felt paper, is a type of material used to provide an extra layer of protection to flat roofs. It is typically made from a combination of asphalt, bitumen, and other materials, which are then applied to a base material, such as a polyester or fiberglass mat. The felt is then coated with a layer of aggregate, such as sand or gravel, to provide additional durability.

There are several types of roofing felt available, including:

• Torchon Felt: A high-quality, heavy-duty felt that is ideal for flat roofs.
• Alsand Felt: A more budget-friendly option that is still durable and effective.

Roofing felt is commonly used in flat roofing systems, including:

• Flat Roofs: Felt is used to provide an extra layer of protection against the elements.
• Roofing Shed: Felt can be used to provide a waterproof layer on shed roofs.
• Garage Roofs: Felt is often used on garage roofs to provide a durable and waterproof surface.

Roofing felt provides several benefits, including:

• Waterproofing: Felt provides an extra layer of protection against water damage.
• Durability: Felt is a durable material that can withstand the elements.
• Easy to Install: Felt is relatively easy to install, making it a popular choice for DIY projects.
