Back in '13 or 14 we had a very bad felted roof & looked primarily at EPDM
& steel. In the end a temporary job was done using bedsheets, bitumen &
sand without stripping any of the damaged felt. Last time I checked it
was still fine. Given that I'd take that approach again in future. Total
cost was under £25 & it was quick compared to a new roof. Just wear junk
clothes, they will get ruined.


Interesting, thanks. In this case it's at the front of the house so a bit
wary of conspicuous bodging...
(and DIY isn't an option in this case)


It looks the same as any felt roof. The finish used was sand, you can also get stone waste for a nicer look. That would up the cost to near £30 though
