    For quality, price, and appearance its
    1 pitch roof with slate/tile
    2 grp
    3 felt

    Having said that there's nothing wrong with a well done felt flat roof as long as it's done correctly and right felt used underlay etc you just don't get same life span.
    Roughly off top of my head pitch roof would be at least double (depending on design/detail) of flat grp which in turn is about 1.5 times felt

    Although a big fan of GRP roofing generally, I think it's more suited to flat & monopitch roofs, aesthetically at any rate.

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    As said above I'm a fan of grp also but that's too big an area for me wouldn't have it on sloped roofs, of that pitch anyway. It would be one flat area unless you put in strips to fake the zinc folds and grp has more texture finish than zinc as well. Nice natural slate roof with appropriate barge there would be nice imo
