Flat Roof Replacement

BauderFlex Reinforced Bitumen Membrane System (Warm Roof Build-Up)

Project Overview

DLJones CPS Ltd was appointed by Tandridge District Council to carry out the full replacement of an aging flat roof at a residential property in Lingfield. The objective was to improve thermal performance, extend the roof’s lifespan, and ensure compliance with modern waterproofing and fire safety standards.

Scope of Work

This was a full warm roof refurbishment delivered to high technical standards and in line with Bauder’s system specifications. Our scope included:

  • Full strip and removal of existing flat roof coverings and insulation
  • Preparation of the roof deck for warm roof installation
  • Supply and installation of BauderFlex reinforced bitumen membrane system
  • Perimeter detailing to upstands, penetrations, outlets, and edges
  • Flame-free application zones in accordance with Safe2Torch guidelines
  • Final quality inspection and sign-off against Bauder’s warranty criteria

Project Challenges & Solutions

Tight Site Access: Material deliveries and waste collections were managed through a tightly coordinated schedule to minimise disruption and avoid site congestion.

Occupied Building: All works were carried out while the property remained in use, with safe access maintained for occupants at all times.

Weather Dependency: Works were scheduled within dry weather windows to ensure correct installation and adhesion of the membrane system.

System Benefits: BauderFlex Warm Roof

The BauderFlex bitumen system was chosen for its proven reliability, fire compliance, and thermal performance. Key benefits include:

  • High-performance insulation to boost thermal efficiency
  • BBA-certified waterproofing system with 30+ year service life
  • BROOF(t4) fire classification for flat roof safety compliance
  • Robust detailing for long-term integrity at critical junctions
  • Backed by Bauder’s full technical support and warranties

Final Outcome

The project was completed on time and without disruption to building occupants. The new flat roof provides long-term protection, improved thermal performance, and a clean, professional finish — fully compliant with Building Regulations and Safe2Torch standards.
