Many homeowners are making the switch to flat roofs. The sleek, industrial aesthetic of flat roofs makes them particularly well-suited to contemporary architecture. In today’s post, Arry’s Roofing Services Inc., one of the premier roofing contractors in the area, explains the key features of our flat roof options:
Traditional Systems
The first type under this category is built-up roofing, one of the oldest and most reliable types of roofs. It consists of several plies of roof felt laminated in hot asphalt. It’s surfaced with gravel set in a flood coat of asphalt. Modified roofing, on the other hand, usually has two plies of roof felt laminated in warm asphalt but with a cap sheet covered in ceramic granules.
Single-Ply Systems
The EPDM is one of the most common types of flat roofing materials, thanks to its affordability and ease of installation. It is also odor-free, unlike built-up roofing systems. EPDM roofs can be fully adhered, mechanically fastened, and loose-laid. Other types of the single-ply systems include TPO and PVC.
Coating Systems
We also provide a complete product lineup of coating systems that can be applied to any type of existing roof surface. The coats form an impermeable membrane over the roof’s surface. They also have a reflective white surface that can help save energy.
