FAQ’s About Flat Roofing Services for Residential and Commercial properties
Our customers often ask for advice about our solutions, so we have put together a list of the most common questions and their answers:
What are the main benefits of flat roofing?
Flat roofing is a popular choice due to its cost-effectiveness, easier installation, and simpler maintenance compared to pitched roofs. It provides usable space on top, ideal for installations like solar panels or even rooftop gardens. Flat roofs are also more accessible, making repairs and inspections quicker and often less expensive.
How long does a flat roof last?
The lifespan of a flat roof depends on the material and quality of installation, but a well-maintained flat roof can last between 20 to 30 years. Materials like EPDM rubber and TPO membranes often offer the longest durability. Regular maintenance can further extend its life, preventing small issues from developing into costly repairs.
Are flat roofs more prone to leaks?
Flat roofs are sometimes more vulnerable to leaks due to their minimal slope, which can allow water to pool. However, modern flat roofing materials and techniques, like EPDM and reinforced membranes, are highly resistant to water damage. With proper installation and drainage, flat roofs can be just as reliable as pitched roofs.
What types of flat roofing materials are available?
Popular flat roofing materials include EPDM (rubber), TPO (thermoplastic), PVC, and modified bitumen. Each has its own advantages; for example, EPDM is durable and UV-resistant, while TPO is known for its energy efficiency. The right choice depends on factors like budget, building type, and desired longevity.
How much maintenance does a flat roof require?
Flat roofs generally require semi-annual inspections, especially after heavy rain or storms, to ensure there is no water pooling or debris build-up. Clearing leaves, branches, and other debris helps prevent damage. Periodic professional inspections can identify any wear and tear early, extending the roof’s life and maintaining its condition.
