As the passion for outdoor living and Mediterranean culture continues to permeate our society
They were extremely popular features of homes built in the 70s and 80s but here at High Tech Membrane Roofing we’re finding the classic flat roof balcony or sun terrace is seeing something of a revival.
As the passion for outdoor living and Mediterranean culture continues to permeate our society, it seems many more homeowners are deciding to build a balcony structure to make the most of the British summer or warmer Easters.
Traditionally, balconies were built on the top of garages or porches as part of the architectural design of the day however many of these original flat roofs haven’t stood up to the test of time and people need them either repaired or replaced to stop the leaks.
High-Tech Membrane Roofing Ltd – Basildon’s leading flat roofing company – has noticed there’s a whole wave of new admirers seeking to apply for planning permission to create a balcony over their garage or flat roof structure.
And it might be a worthwhile investment. Estate agents say a balcony or roof terrace can make a home more attractive to potential buyers, especially if you’re looking for a summer sale.
Also, if you’re lucky enough to have a view, whether it’s of the sea, a river or fields, a balcony or roof terrace will ensure you maximise your enjoyment of it.
