Looking for a Flat Roof?

Traditionally flat roofs are the go-to style of roofing for commercial buildings, and just as the name suggests, the roofs lay flat over the top of the building. Generally, there are four types of flat roofs.

Depending on the manufacturer, each type classically comes with a 10 to 20-year warranty, and the average lifespan is between 20-25 years if installed by professional roofing contractors.

When it comes to commercial flat roofs, the most important thing to understand is that almost all the flat roofing systems use what’s referred to as “Membrane Roofing.” This means that a waterproof roof membrane material (usually with a slight, almost imperceptible slope) is used to move water off the roof.

That’s why most flat roofing systems will be created using waterproof materials made of synthetic rubber, thermoplastic (PVC or like material) or modified bitumen.

These are:

1. Synthetic Rubber or Thermoset Roofing Membranes
2. Thermoplastic Roofing Membranes
3. Modified Bitumen Roofing
