Hi All,
I have been contacted by a private tennants group who have or live in a block of flats (about 30 flats in the block).
They want a flat roof refurbishment doing - basically the existing roof is felt and bitumen, we are proposing to go over this by way of mechanically (riveting) a new 18mm plywood deck to the existing felt roof, and cold applying a new EPDM rubber membrane over the top.
I would be covering more than 25% of the existing roof - I would be covering 100%. The EPDM rubber membrane is not Fire Retardant Grade as it is not a new build.
What approvals would I need before I even contemplate undertaking such a job?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Many Thanks
