What to Consider
- Type of Facility – The flat roofing system you should get depends on the facility you have on your commercial property. A warehouse for storing products usually has a different type of roofing installed compared to a manufacturing facility. If it’s an office or a retail building, you’ll want to prioritize comfort for the tenants.
- Maintenance – This is important for your new roofing system if you want it to last as long as it should. You should work with a trusted roofing contractor who can conduct a detailed inspection at least once a year to ensure your roof stays in top condition. This is especially necessary if your home recently survived a severe storm event but has sustained damages on your roof.
Common Flat Roof Systems
- Asphalt-Based Roofing Systems – These used to be the industry standard and have been around for more than 100 years due to their reliability and durability. Despite their thick and messy application, they can last for over 50 years with regular care and maintenance.
- Modified Bitumen Systems – Also known as “mod bit” systems, they’re factory-fabricated layers of asphalt that are “modified” using a rubber or plastic ingredient for increased flexibility. They’re also combined with a type of reinforcement material for added strength and stability.
- Single-Ply Roofing Systems – These are products such as TPO, PVC and EPDM, which are easier to apply compared to asphalt-based roofing systems. Single-Ply roofing systems are ideal for warehouses and office spaces where there’s limited roof traffic.
