Beeby Construction Services is a trusted and reliable felt roofing installer in Leicester and the Midlands.
Felt roofing is a popular solution for flat roofs. From the small areas on top of dormers to garage roofs and even entire school buildings, you will find felt roofing in many different situations. We can install and repair these roofs for both domestic and commercial properties wherever you are in Leicester or the rest of the Midlands.
We promise an efficient and professional service with a quality product that will last for many years and continue to look great on your home or business premises.
Felt roofing consists of multiple layers of felt sheet which combine to create a barrier from the outside world. In order to make it waterproof, we coat it with bitumen tar which seals the roof and makes it hard wearing in the elements. This type of roofing is most commonly found on flat roofs, but you can also find it on pitched shed roofs too, for example. Older examples did not have a great reputation as they would often crack and leak, but modern felt roofing is completely different. It is reliable and durable and can prove a fantastic solution for covering your flat roof.
There are many great advantages of felt roofing:
To maintain a felt roof and keep it in great condition, you should check it regularly. Inspect it at least once in spring and once in autumn. In addition, check it after a storm, heavy snowfall or high winds. Although felt is durable, you should still look for rips, tears, splits, ponding and blistering, which can sometimes occur. You should also clear any debris or moss that has collected on top of the roof.
You can clean your felt roof with a brush or leaf blower, making sure you get rid of any obstacles to the drainage from the roof.
In addition, keep an eye on your ceiling for any signs of potential leaking. On some occasions you will be able to patch up a felt roof problem, but more serious issues need a professional to repair the damage.

We can’t recommend James enough. We had an internal wall knocked down to make our downstairs more open plan and we’re thrilled with the outcome. Friendly and hard working, him and the lads completed the work to a high standard and finished when they said they would. We won’t hesitate to ask James back for future plans.

Always dreamed of having a home gym when I get my house and James and the guys made it a reality. Bought the house back in Dec 2018 and had a detached garage that I felt was perfect to convert into a home gym. Saved up for a year, got in touch with James after checking out his website, social media and his reviews. The garage needed a new roof, new door, new floor and so much more! Can not recommend James and the guys enough. I have a few other projects I’d like to do to the house and will be using James for these projects!

James and the team did a fantastic job of converting the garage into a bathroom and a small bedroom, rebuilding the porch and giving it a new layout by moving the front door and windows and replacing the flat roof. They worked to a very high standard, turned up on time and were very pleasant and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they did some additional work for me landscaping the front of the house and some extras I hadn’t got around to like painting the inside of the airing cupboard. Every job was done carefully and completely finished off to my satisfaction and so I would recommend them.

I used Beeby Construction services to convert the loft in my Victorian terraced property. From start to finish James and his team were knowledgeable, helpful and professional guiding me through the building regulations process and offering ideas and solutions. Nothing was too much trouble and the end result is above and beyond what I expected, I am delighted. I can thoroughly recommend James and his team, they were always on site when agreed and worked swiftly with very minimal disturbance and inconvenience to myself.
