FAQs

We focus on flat roofing systems, including EPDM, TPO, and modified bitumen, as well as lifetime limited architectural shingle roofing for residential and commercial properties. If you'd like to learn more about flat roof options or shingle roof options, we can provide additional details.

Flat roofs generally last 15–30 years, depending on the material used and how well they're maintained. Shingle roofs typically last 20–30 years for standard asphalt shingles and 30–50 years for architectural shingles. We're happy to help you compare roof lifespan factors if needed.

Warning signs include leaks, ponding water on flat roofs, missing shingles, granule loss, or visible sagging. A professional inspection will help determine whether a roof repair or roof replacement is the most cost-effective solution.

Flat roof leaks are often caused by poor drainage, aging membranes, seam failures, and punctures from foot traffic or debris. We can provide more information about flat roof leak causes if you'd like a deeper explanation.

Flat roofs typically take 1–3 days, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Shingle roofs usually take about 1 day for a shingle overlay; or 1-3 days for a tear-off of existing roof materials, wood replacement, etc. We can provide a more detailed breakdown of roof installation timelines upon request.

Most installations come with a manufacturer warranty covering materials and a workmanship warranty from our company. We're happy to provide a more detailed roof warranty explanation if you'd like additional information.

Our flat roofs are ruberoid TPO or EPDM. Flat roofs are maintenance free.

For flat roofs, we recommend TPO for energy efficiency, EPDM for durability, and modified bitumen for budget-friendly reliability. For shingle roofs, architectural shingles offer longevity and enhanced curb appeal. We can create a comparison chart of roofing materials if that would be helpful.
