Garage, extension and outbuilding felt roofs installed, repaired and replaced across Wetherby
Contact Us
Wetherby has been a sought-after place to live for a long time - handy for Leeds and York, sat prettily on the Wharfe - and it shows in the housing. Estates from every decade since the war spread out from the old coaching town centre, and nearly all of them come with the flat-roofed garages, porches and extensions that felt covers so well. Plenty of those original roofs are now decades old and due a rethink.
We connect Wetherby homeowners with roofers who bring over 25 years of industry experience to felt installations, repairs and replacements. It’s the budget option that still does the job properly - a modern 3-layer torch-on system is quick to fit, tidy to look at, and built to keep a garage or extension dry for 20 years and more.

Why Wetherby Homeowners Choose Felt
Keeps Costs Down
Felt is one of the least expensive flat roofing options available - ideal when a garage or porch roof needs sorting without touching the budget set aside for the house itself.
Done in a Day or Two
Most of Wetherby’s estate garages are a straightforward size and shape, so stripping and re-felting is fast work with little disruption to the drive or the neighbours.
Built for the Weather
The modern 3-layer torch-on system takes the rain rolling up the Wharfe valley in its stride - a far stronger build than the single-layer felt many older garages still carry.
A Clean Finish
The finished roof is flat, neat and unfussy, which suits the well-kept streets and cul-de-sacs Wetherby is known for.
Easy to Patch
If a corner lifts or a blister forms years down the line, a small patch repair is cheap and quick - no need to replace the whole covering.

Felt Roofs in Wetherby: Your Questions Answered
Can you replace the felt on my garage roof in Wetherby?+
Yes - it’s the most common felt job in town. The roofers we connect you with strip the old covering, check and replace any rotten decking boards, then torch on a new 3-layer system. Most Wetherby garages are done within a day or two, with a clear fixed quote before any work starts.
Wetherby sits in open country by the river - does that affect a felt roof?+
The town’s open position means roofs take plenty of wind-driven rain off the surrounding countryside, but that’s well within what a properly installed torch-on system handles. Getting the details right - laps, edges and upstands - matters more than the weather itself, which is why vetted, experienced installers are worth having.
How long will a new felt roof last?+
A modern 3-layer torch-on felt roof typically lasts 20 to 30 years when properly installed. Occasional patch repairs can extend that further, and installations come with extensive guarantees for peace of mind.
