Roof replacement with new shingles and chimney flashing

Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing

Flat Roof Systems

Flat roof systems are low-slope roofs covered with a membrane rather than shingles. Water moves slowly, so the seams, the drains, and the flashings at walls do the work that slope does on a shingle roof.

The work

What is a flat roof system?

The membrane may be modified bitumen, a single-ply sheet, or a built-up roof. A repair welds or seals the failed seam, replaces a flashing at a wall, or fixes a drain that ponds. A coating is only an option when the membrane underneath is still sound. A roof that is cracked across the field is a replacement.

That coating question is roof coating. A shingle slope is asphalt shingle roofing.

Why it matters

Why this work matters

Ponding water finds the seam. A flat roof does not forgive an open lap the way a steep shingle roof sometimes does. The repair closes the lap. It does not promise the roof will never hold a puddle if the structure slopes that way.

Added drains or tapered insulation are discussed only if the deck actually calls for them.
