Low-Slope Roofing

While most commercial entities and businesses use flat roofing for their structures, homeowners have started to adopt this roofing style thanks to modern aesthetics. Flat roofing is when the roof is mostly level, has a low slope with a 10-degree tilt, and is never actually flat.

Flat roofing can be made from all kinds of different materials:

  • Concrete
  • Asphalt
  • Fiberglass
  • Metal
  • Polyurethane foam
  • Tar
  • Rubber

Advantages Of Flat Roofing

One of the biggest attractions of flat roofing is its affordability. Instead of expending money and energy on structures to create the average sloped roof, homeowners can simply build flat across. Flat roofing also can introduce the potential of "building up" in the future, whereas average sloped roofs create more of a delay to do so.

Flat roofing also makes maintenance easier and less scary, as there isn't a dramatic slope that can create a fall risk.

Frequently Asked Flat Roofing Questions

This will depend on the material used:

  • Concrete: 50 years
  • Asphalt: 15 to 20 years
  • Metal: 30 to 100 years
  • Polyurethane foam: 20 to 50 years

Shingles won't work on flat roofing. Flat roofing needs to be completely sealed and shingles introduce gaps and air pockets that can cause issues with drainage.

While you can reapply foam roof coating on older surfaces, this won't be the case with all flat roofing. Some flat roofs can have a single-ply membrane applied on top of the old one. However, for metal roofs and green roofs, there will need to be a tar-down process before a new one can be installed.
