The flat roof shown here consists of an 18mm thickness waterproof plywood deck with a 3 layer high performance felt system, the finish is green mineral which we find is the most durable covering.

The type of felts which we recommend are high performance or elastomeric which means that they can withstand thermal expansion and the polyester reinforcement is rotproof.
