The Benefits of a GRP Roofing System
The roof is arguably one of the most neglected parts of the average home. Most of us would rather spend money on internal decor and furnishings where we can see and appreciate where our hard earned cash has gone. When you consider, however, that a leaky roof can potentially lead to serious structural problems in your home, it's perhaps unwise to overlook the importance of good roof maintenance.
Roofs have certainly come a long way over the centuries; from conical shaped thatched roofs to the now more commonplace tiled pitched roof. The good news is that in the 21st century, it's possible to install a roof that might just outlast the very structure it serves to protect!
What is a GRP roof?
GRP stands for glass reinforced plastic; perhaps better known as fibreglass. A material that has found effective use in applications such as pond liners and even boats, the many benefits of using GRP in roofing systems are now widely recognised. Not only is the material itself extremely hard wearing and non-corrosive, its ease of installation when compared with other types of flat roof could mean that it's a very economical choice. Some of the other benefits of a GRP flat roof include:
o Very low maintenance
o No seams or joints where water can penetrate
o Space-saving potential (no dead space due to beams associated with sloping roofs)
o Easy access
o Wide variety of colour options/decorative finishes
o Fire retardant
