Felt vs Rubber vs Fibreglass Flat Roofs
Compare felt, rubber and fibreglass flat roofs before repairing or replacing a garage, extension or bay roof.
Felt, rubber and fibreglass can all work well on the right flat roof. The right choice depends on the deck, roof size, edges, foot traffic, budget and how the roof connects to walls, lanterns and outlets.
| Option | Best fit | Important detail |
|---|---|---|
| Felt | Many practical repairs and replacements. | Laps and edges need careful finishing. |
| Rubber | Simple flat roof shapes with clean details. | Edges, trims and outlets decide the finish. |
| Fibreglass | Firm decks where a hard finish suits. | The deck must be right before it is laid. |

Do not choose the material before the roof is checked
A flat roof material only performs as well as the deck, drainage and edge detail below it. Ashurst & Sons Roofing will inspect the roof and explain which route is practical.
