SEC Roofing & Construction is certified to install an array of flat roofing systems. Flat roofs are typically found on commercial, industrial, and are becoming more popular on apartments and other multi-family roofing surfaces. However, there are many flat residential roofs in Florida as well. With the multitude of material types available and each offering unique characteristics of types, durability, purpose, and color, we make sure you choose the best flat roof system for your needs and wants.
Types of Flat – Low Slope Roofing Systems
- Modified Bitumen (Rolled Granulated): is an asphalt-based system designed with polymers and solvents for flexibility, impact resistance, and strength. It’s a close cousin of the Built-Up Roof designed for buildings with low-slope or “flat” roof structures. Insulation boards can be used under the roofing system to provide a slope, such as ISO Board, cementitious boards, wood decks, and more. They can be applied with open flame torches, hot mopping, or cold-applied adhesive.
- EPDM
(Rubber Roofing): ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) membrane provides long-term strength, durability, and weatherability. Its black surface can assist with snowmelt and heat gain in colder climates. Its elasticity is great for freeze/thaw conditions and hail-prone areas. EPDM can be easily installed without electric-powered tools. These are not a predominant roofing system in Florida compared to the Modified Bitumen and TPO system.
- TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin): this is the most popular product in commercial roofing. TPO is the most economical choice in heat-weldable membranes (hot air is used to adhere the seams) and also very popular in adhesive applications. TPO offers ease of heat welding for seaming and detailing. It’s highly reflective and can help reduce air conditioning costs.
- Built-Up Roof Systems (BUR): commonly known as “tar and gravel roofs,” This roof has two or more layers of felt cemented together and surfaced with a cap sheet, mineral aggregate, smooth coating, or similar surfacing material. These can be modified bitumen granular roofing systems or hot asphalt applied systems. The bitumen used includes asphalt, cold-applied adhesive, or coal tar. They gained popularity in the 1970s.
