Torch-On Felt Roofing in Kent
Torch-on felt is a proven, robust flat roofing system built up in layers for a tough, weathertight finish. Pro Guard Roofing Specialists Ltd installs and repairs torch-on felt roofs throughout Kent, suitable for garages, extensions and larger commercial flat roofs.
About this service
Torch-on felt roofing layers bituminous membranes that are torched together to form a continuous, bonded surface — typically two or three layers over a suitable deck. It is a durable, cost-effective system that handles foot traffic and weather well, making it a common choice for garages, extensions and commercial flat roofs. We install it on a sound deck with correct falls and edge detailing.

Our process
We start with a professional inspection of your roof — using drone imagery where access is difficult — to identify the cause of the problem rather than just the symptom.
You receive a clear written quotation setting out the recommended works, materials and price, with no obligation.
Our experienced roofing team carries out the work using quality materials, keeping the site clean and organised throughout.
We complete a final inspection, remove waste responsibly and confirm any applicable workmanship guarantee.
Guarantees
Qualifying works are backed by a Pro Guard workmanship guarantee, confirmed in writing with your quotation.
