Why Should You Invest in Flat Roofing?

Being at the very top of the list of the most energy-efficient roofing solutions, flat roofings are becoming increasingly known as one of the best options in residential roofing. Also, since there are no roof slopes, space gained with installing flat roofing systems is a big advantage and allows for a variety of applications and possible upgrades.

The usual technique used in flat roofing is called membrane roofing, the same one used when installing a flat roof on a commercial building. The materials used in membrane roofing include synthetic rubber (such as TPO or PVC), thermoplastic (EPDM) and bitumen- and asphalt-based materials (mainly used when installing built-up roofings). There is no “one-size-fits-all” principle when it comes to flat roofings – there are several important factors you should take into consideration when choosing a flat roofing solution, namely installation risks, climate and budget.

At Georgia Roof Pro, we value the quality of the materials we use to create your perfect roofing. That’s why the service of installment and maintenance of flat roofing with us upholds the highest standards in the residential roofing industry.

How Can Flat Roofing Benefit Your House

New technologies are being developed every year to ensure maximum functionality of flat roofings. The seams used to seal up individual sheets of material into one single, continuous flats surface are often stronger than the material itself, which enables supreme resistance to water leakage. For example, the hot air welding technique used to fuse together PVC sheets is very effective and creates a roofing surface that is almost impossible to leak.

While single-ply roofings (such as PVC, TPO, and EPDM) are prone to physical damage caused by minor objects colliding into the roof, built-up roofing allows for greater durability and proneness to the risks of collisions. This type of flat roofing is, however, extremely difficult to install – the risks include exposure to chemicals which will do damage to the skin, heavy equipment used and the utilization of hot material. Among all other types of flat roofings, metal roofs are the most ecologically friendly option there is. While other materials are artificial and cannot be recycled, metal is completely recyclable.

Probably the biggest benefit flat roofing will bring to your home is its flexibility. Its surface is much smaller than that of a sloped roof, and thus ensures enough space for other applications, such as solar panel installment, or a possibility of adding vegetation to your roof surface. Also, every inch of space below the roof can be used – as if the roof wasn’t there – which also plays a big role in energy efficiency.
