Why to insulate flat roof?
A roof that’s not properly insulated could be letting up to 35% of your homes heat escape, which means its costing you money. Many flat roof extensions in Ireland are poorly insulated. Quite often they are not insulated at all. This lack of insulation is costing the Irish homeowner a fortune!
Can My Flat Roof be Insulated?
Most old flat roofs can be insulated however sometimes the cost becomes restrictive, take an example of a flat roof that got a bedroom under it and above a balcony opens up onto the flat roof, the step of the door out onto the roof is only 50mm above the existing roof.
In this instance to place roof insulation over the roof to form a warm roof would mean moving the door, and to remove the ceilings down below to add roof insulation and ventilation would devastate the room below. If building control is involved they should be lenient and deem the roof as “hard to insulate” and not enforce the building regulation.
