Alwitra or something else

[Kelvin]

Our flat roof is detailed to be covered with Alwitra Evalon V. Like everything else, it seems, I’m struggling to find an installer. I’m hopeful on one installer who is phoning me back tomorrow. It’s 64m² with one rooflight. 
 

If I get no joy what are the alternatives. I’ve seen Sarnafil mentioned on here and that seems to be a more popular product and consequently has more installers.

Our installer used to Alwitra Evalon. Went down very easily and hasn’t leaked yet!

 

where are you based as if local-ish to West Sussex I can pass on their details.

Hi @Kelvin did you manage to find a Scottish installer?

[Kelvin]

Yes Gryphon Roofing from Glasgow. I wouldn’t recommend them unfortunately. There are a couple of others that quoted but they seemed reluctant to travel. If I was doing it again I’d use Sarnafil as there seems to be more installers.

Many thanks Kelvin,

 

Yes it seems flat roofer are hard to find and most people don't speak highly of their work. Ive been training myself to weld various single ply membranes but I would be able to buy most weldable single ply membrane made of stuff like PVC unless I do a course. I would be willing to do the course if they will let me.
