Flat Roofing in Coral Springs, Florida
A flat roof has to move water without help from gravity. Drains, seams and edges decide whether it stays dry, and each one is a place where a roof can fail.
- Membrane roofs
- Townhomes and condos
- Small commercial
Overview
Low-slope roofs on shared and commercial buildings
Flat roofs in north Broward cover townhome rows, condominium buildings and small commercial buildings, and the porches and additions of single-family houses. Membrane systems such as single-ply and modified bitumen are installed in layers and rely on welded or sealed seams.
Standing water, called ponding, is the signal to watch. It means that the slope or the drains are not moving water, and it speeds the aging of the membrane.
Why us
What USA Roofing Coral Springs brings to the job
Approved membrane systems
Membranes and attachment follow an approval for the zone and are listed on the permit.
Drainage looked at
We examine drains, scuppers and slope, because ponding is the first sign of trouble.
Plans for associations
Scopes are written by building for owners, managers and boards.
Edges and penetrations
Parapet caps, curbs and vents are flashed so the seams are not left to caulk.
What goes wrong with flat roofs
Because flat roofs depend on their seams and drains, problems cluster in the same places.
- Ponding water where the roof slope is too shallow.
- Seams that have opened after years of heat cycles.
- Blocked drains and scuppers.
- Cracked flashing at parapets and rooftop equipment curbs.
- Membrane blisters from trapped moisture.
Planning a flat roof job
A low-slope re-roof is planned in sections so that the building is never left open to rain.
- Inspection with photographs, and moisture checks where needed.
- A written scope with the membrane's approval and the warranty terms.
- Permit and owner or board approval before work.
- Sections opened and closed the same day.
- Final inspection and a record of the work.
Roof financing
Paying for a roof without draining your savings
Approved applicants can finance a roof with nothing down. The lender puts its terms in writing for you before you commit to anything.
- $0 down on approved credit
- Lender terms given in writing
- Roofing estimate comes first
Approval is up to the lender, and the rate and term you are offered depend on your credit and on the size of the job.
The monthly payment for a 15-year home improvement installment loan of $10,000 with an APR of 10.99% would be $113. No down payment required. Not all loan products will be available to all partners or all consumers.
Questions
Flat Roofing: what people ask us
Can a flat roof be coated instead of replaced?
Sometimes, when the existing roof is still sound and dry. A coating over a wet or failed roof traps the moisture inside, so we check the roof first and tell you honestly whether a coating or a new membrane is the right step.
Why does my flat roof hold water after rain?
Either the slope is too low or the drains are not working. A short ponding period is normal, but water that stays for days needs attention.
Do flat roofs need a permit?
Re-roofs generally do. The product approval and the attachment method are listed on the application, and the city inspects the work, so the permit is part of what you pay a licensed contractor to handle for you.
Do you work on small commercial roofs?
Yes. We write the scope for owners and managers, with the product approvals, the access plan and the sequence of sections, so a small commercial building is never left open to rain overnight while the work is under way.
