All roofs need to be insulated - but whether you need a 'cold roof' or 'warm roof' depends on the U-values UK Building Control sets for your roof type.
As a rule of thumb, 'cold roofs' are suitable for garages, workshops and roof sites where 'cold-bridging' is not an issue.
Tapered warm roof insulation is primarily used for flat roofs, to ensure proper rainwater drainage.
It ensures the roof is insulated in line with UK government U-values, and also that it isn't compromised by pooling water.

This balcony terrace, intended to provide a cosy outdoor space, had seen better days - as the photographs show.
To refurbish it and correct the problems that had caused the issues in the first place, we stripped everything back, then gradually layered in the polymer system to create a strong, jointless and seamless balcony that should last for many years to come.
We completed with a tough, anti-skid quartz finish - chosen by the customer from our range of colour options - creating a safe, ordered, efficently drained and aesthetically pleasing, weatherproof space.
Warm roofs are insulated roofs with a very low "U-value": 'U-value' measures the rate at which heat transfers over time through a building element (e.g., the roof).
The better your roof retains heat, the lower your roof's U-value.
Insulation is either placed between the roof deck and the weatherproofing (above, not below, the roof deck) or laid using decking with insulation pre-bonded to it.
No ventilation is required although to prevent cold-bridging, the external wall insulation has to be extended upwards to the bottom of the roof insulation.
This roof was an unusual project in terms of shape and design - constituting a wide strip of roofing surrounding a large central opening for a glass roof.
The roofing area also needed to be meticulously tapered to the gutting to provide thorough drainage from the central area and avoid puddling, which could damage the roof structure and impair safety.
The above photographs show the sanded-back roof prior to installation of the polymer system, followed by different views of the finished roof, illustrating the subtle tapering from a variety of angles.
