TPO

Flat Roof Repair
Repairs built for flat and low-slope roofs
Flat roofs fail differently from sloped roofs. Water drains slowly, so it can sit on the surface, find small seams and work its way in. Georgia heat also makes membranes expand and contract, which leads to blisters, cracks and separated seams.
We repair TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen and built-up flat roofs on homes, porches, additions and commercial buildings. We patch damaged membrane, reseal seams, clear and repair drains and scuppers, and fix areas where water keeps ponding.

FAQ
Flat Roof Repair questions
Is standing water on a flat roof a problem?
Small puddles that dry within a day or two are normal. Water that stays longer than 48 hours puts stress on the membrane and seams and should be checked.
Can a flat roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Yes. Many flat roof problems, such as split seams, small punctures and blisters, can be repaired. A coating can also extend the life of a roof in fair condition.
What type of flat roof do I have?
White or gray single-ply is usually TPO, black rubber is EPDM, and rolled or layered roofing with granules is usually modified bitumen. We confirm it during the inspection.
Do you repair flat roofs on commercial buildings?
Yes. We repair flat and low-slope roofs on homes, porches, additions, shops and commercial buildings.
