A flat roofing system is generally required for buildings that have a roof pitch up to 10 degrees. There’s many options for a low-pitch roof. Belleville Roofing Services can help you decide which option is best for your home or business. Flat roofs are often susceptible to water damage. We take great pride in our expertise and professionalism in ensuring your roof remains waterproof, protecting your home or business.
In order to waterproof a flat or low-pitch roof, we use a waterproof membrane. We ensure that rainwater is properly drained into your water drainage system. This will help keep your roof and walls dry. On top of the water resistant membrane, we may install tar, asphalt, or felt paper. To further ensure waterproofing, we typically add a coating of tar or asphalt, followed by layers of gravel. The gravel helps protect from UV rays and helps prevent cracking and deterioration.
