Taming Atlantic weather on Newquay roofs
If you live anywhere near the coast in Newquay, you know exactly what the Atlantic throws at us. Between the salt-heavy air and those North Coast gales that seem to rattle every window pane, your roof has a tough job. Flat roofs, in particular, have historically had a bit of a bad reputation in Cornwall. We’ve all seen those old felt roofs that bubble in the sun or start 'ponding' water after a typical Cornish downpour. At Cornwall & Plymouth Roofing, we're here to change that narrative. Trading as Elite Construction, we’ve spent years installing modern, high-performance systems that don't just survive the Newquay climate—they thrive in it.
Why Choose Us?
GRP Fibreglass: Boat-grade protection for homes
Have you ever wondered why boats in Newquay harbour don't leak? It’s because they’re often built from GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester). We apply that same logic to your home. GRP fibreglass is essentially a seamless 'hull' for your extension, garage, or balcony. Because there are no joins or seams, there’s nowhere for the water to get in. It’s incredibly tough—you can walk on it without worry—and it looks fantastic with its sleek, grey finish. If you’re looking for a 'fit and forget' solution that will easily last 25 to 30 years, this is the one we usually recommend for exposed coastal spots.

Who We Are
EPDM Rubber: The ultimate one-piece shield
Imagine a single, giant rubber blanket custom-cut to fit your roof perfectly. That’s EPDM in a nutshell. It’s a synthetic rubber membrane that’s become a massive hit with homeowners in Newquay because it’s so flexible. It doesn’t crack under the summer sun and won't go brittle when the winter frost hits. Because we can often install it in one large piece, we eliminate the weak points where leaks usually start. It’s eco-friendly, remarkably durable, and handles the expansion and contraction of your building like a pro. Most homeowners tell us they love the low-maintenance nature of EPDM—it just does its job year after year.

Modern felt roofing that actually lasts
Forget the thin, papery felt of the 1980s. Modern high-performance felt is a completely different beast. We use a 'torch-on' system which involves three layers of thick, bitumen-reinforced membranes. It’s a fantastic, cost-effective option for larger areas like garage blocks or multi-storey extensions. When installed correctly with a proper vapour control layer and high-quality OSB3 decking, it provides a robust, watertight finish that stands up to the heaviest rain. We’re often called out to replace DIY felt jobs that have failed, so we always ensure our professional installs meet the highest UK Building Regulations for your peace of mind.

01752 741428Solving the dreaded pooling water issue
Is there a 'pond' forming on your flat roof after a storm? If water sits there for more than 48 hours, it's called ponding, and it’s a sign that your roof isn't draining properly. Over time, the weight of that water and the constant soak can cause the structure beneath to rot. When we take on a project in Newquay, we don't just swap the top layer; we check the 'fall' of the roof. If it’s too flat, we can install tapered insulation or adjust the timber firrings to make sure rainwater runs straight into your gutters where it belongs. It’s these small details that make a roof last thirty years instead of five.
