Three systems, picked for your building.

TPO

White, heat-welded seams that reflect summer sun. A common choice for row homes and additions.

EPDM rubber

Durable rubber membrane that handles freeze and thaw well and is simple to repair.

Modified bitumen

Layered torch-down or self-adhered sheets, tough under foot traffic and on garages.

How we redo a flat roof.

  1. 1

    Inspect

    Core the roof if needed to see how many layers and how much wet insulation are under it.

  2. 2

    Strip and dry

    Remove failed layers and wet insulation down to a dry, solid base.

  3. 3

    Build the slope

    Tapered insulation and drains placed so water leaves the roof instead of ponding.

  4. 4

    Membrane and edges

    New membrane, flashing up walls and parapets, and metal edge or coping.

What is included.

  • Inspection and moisture check of the existing roof
  • Removal of failed layers and wet insulation
  • Tapered insulation where water ponds
  • Membrane, wall flashing and edge metal
  • Drains, scuppers and downspouts checked

Questions we hear.

Which flat roof is best for a row home?

TPO and EPDM are both common. TPO stays cooler in summer; EPDM is very forgiving to repair. We recommend one after seeing the roof.

Why does water sit on my flat roof?

The deck has sagged or the drainage is blocked. New tapered insulation and clear drains fix the slope.

Can you put a flat roof over the old one?

Sometimes one recover is allowed, but wet insulation underneath must come out first. We check before we quote.
