What is GRP roofing?
GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) roofing is made from a polyester resin, which is reinforced by chopped strand mat glass fibres to form a GRP laminate. Often referred to as fibreglass roofing, it’s a durable, lightweight, flexible, fully reinforced and waterproof material capable of being moulded to any shape.
Invented by Russel Games in 1938, it was originally used on water containers and boats. Today, it’s one of the most popular choices in the construction industry for both new properties and the refurbishment of existing roofing systems.

GRP Design
The design of a GRP roofing system
Typically speaking, GRP roofing systems are a three-part product with liquid roof resin or reinforced matting. A further coat of resin is added with edge trims and a UV coating to finish off. On occasion, an additional traction coat is added for anti-slip purposes.
GRP/Fibreglass is a highly rigid board, meaning that it is important a GRP systems is fixed while leaving gaps to the side in the instance of timber swelling from moisture exposure. Overall, GRP is an excellent solution for roofing with endless benefits and capabilities.

GRP Fibreglass Roofing FAQs
GRP is versatile and performs equally well on domestic extensions, garages, and porches as it does on commercial buildings, warehouses, and industrial units. We tailor our installations to suit the unique needs of each site.
When professionally installed, a GRP roof can last between 20-40 years, depending on the system used. Some high-end systems, like Topseal, offer guarantees of up to 40 years, providing long-term peace of mind.
GRP offers a seamless, joint-free surface that’s highly resistant to leaks, weathering, UV exposure, and corrosion. It requires little maintenance, is easy to clean, and can be moulded to fit awkward or complex roof shapes.
GRP is typically laid over a dry, ventilated deck. The process involves applying a base layer of resin, embedding the fibreglass mat, and then sealing it with another resin layer. A final UV-protective topcoat finishes the system, and trims are fitted for edge protection.
Once cured, GRP roofs are strong enough to withstand foot traffic, making them ideal for balconies or maintenance areas. Anti-slip finishes can also be added if regular access is required.
We work with industry-leading systems such as Cure It, Tough Stuff, UltraFlex, Pro GRP, Polyroof, and Topseal. Each offers its own set of benefits, some favouring flexibility, others providing extended guarantees.
We offer full GRP services, from installation and replacement to expert repairs. Whether you’re dealing with cracking, delamination, or pooling water, our experienced team can diagnose and resolve issues efficiently.
Absolutely. GRP is also used in valleys, gutters, steps, flooring, and even cladding. It’s ideal for areas that require long-term waterproofing and resilience against the elements.
We serve customers across Somerset, Devon, and Dorset, including Exeter, Yeovil, Taunton, Weston-super-Mare, and Bath.
