    You might find it difficult to get insurance for a full flat roofed house or at leave it'll be very expensive. Would be worth ringing insurance companies to get quotes before you go any further

    Depends on the % of flat roof overall-I think anything more that 30% of roof as flay it may be tricky to get insurance
