RIVERSIDE FLAT ROOF REPLACEMENTS & TERRACES IN HAMPTON TW12
Riverside properties along Thames Street, Victorian villas in Hampton Hill, and detached family homes bordering Bushy Park and Hampton Court Road (TW12) frequently rely on flat roofs across rear kitchen extensions, boat-house garages, and elevated first-floor terraces. As documented in our Hampton project photography, our flat roofers recently stripped a failing, brittle GRP fibreglass covering from a riverside residence where standing water and thermal movement had fractured the resin joints. We removed the damp, delaminated boards back to the structural joists and installed a BS 1088 marine-grade plywood deck over graduated firring strips to establish a positive 1:40 drainage gradient.
Hot-Air Welded Sika Sarnafil & Castle Composites Turf Matting
Over the new marine plywood substrate, our certified installers mechanically fixed and hot-air welded a Sika Sarnafil single-ply polymeric membrane. To transform the waterproofed deck into a walkable riverside terrace without puncturing the membrane, we laid porous Castle Composites synthetic turf interlocking tiles alongside perimeter safety railings—delivering a low-maintenance, year-round outdoor retreat.
MARINE PLYWOOD DECKING, WARM ROOFS & BALCONIES IN TW12
Replacing a perished felt, asphalt, or fibreglass roof in Hampton starts with exposing the structural C24 joists to check for wet rot and condensation damage before building up a thermally insulated warm roof assembly.
Sika Sarnafil Polymeric Single-Ply
Hot-air welded thermoplastic membranes engineered for 40+ years of leak-free performance under foot traffic, UV exposure, and overhanging Bushy Park tree cover.
BS 1088 Marine Plywood & Tapered Firrings
Cross-laminated, moisture-resistant marine plywood substrates and precision timber firrings that eliminate ponding water across wide TW12 extensions.
Part L Rigid PIR Warm Deck Insulation
High-density polyisocyanurate thermal insulation boards laid above a continuous vapour control layer to lock heat inside ground-floor living spaces.
Castle Composites Turf, Promenade Tiles & Decking
Free-draining synthetic grass tiles, porcelain pavers on pedestals, and composite decking systems fitted with perimeter balustrades for domestic roof terraces.
One-Piece Vulcanised EPDM & Liquid Tanking
Seamless synthetic rubber sheets for garages and garden studios alongside cold-applied Sikalastic resins for intricate parapet gutters and skylight upstands.
Zero-Flame Waterproofing for Richmond upon Thames Homes
We never bring naked bitumen gas torches onto residential properties in Hampton. Every single-ply, EPDM, and liquid membrane we install is fused with calibrated Leister hot-air welders or cold-bonded adhesives, eliminating fire hazards near timber eaves and period joinery.

Why did our fibreglass (GRP) flat roof in Hampton crack and start leaking?
GRP fibreglass is a rigid polyester resin originally designed for boat hulls. When laid over wide domestic timber roof decks that expand and contract through summer heat and winter frost, brittle fibreglass cannot flex with the timber movement—causing hairline fractures along the board joints and perimeter trims. Replacing failed GRP with a flexible, hot-air welded Sika Sarnafil single-ply membrane allows the roof covering to move naturally without splitting.
Can you lay artificial grass or decking tiles over a new flat roof without voiding the warranty?
Yes. As shown in our Hampton riverside project photography, we lay interlocking Castle Composites artificial turf tiles or pedestal-mounted promenade slabs over a protective separation fleece on top of the Sika Sarnafil membrane. Rainwater drains freely beneath the tiles to the perimeter gutters while the waterproof membrane remains completely shielded from foot traffic and UV rays.
