FAQ
Flat Roofing FAQs
Which flat roof system is best?
It depends on the building, budget, foot traffic and drainage. We compare the options with you and recommend the system that fits how your roof is used.
Can a flat roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Often yes, especially if the membrane is sound and the problem is at a seam or flashing. We inspect first and are upfront about what makes sense.
