Flat Roofs
Flat roofs (or built up roofs) are more commonly found in commercial building than in homes. However, these types of roofs are also very well suited to residential structures. Flat roofing is installed through the use of layers of hot tar then roofing felt alternately. This is then covered with a layer of gravel. Sometimes, layers of fiberglass based asphalt sheeting and hot bitumen can also be used in flat roof installation. Flat roofing is sometimes also referred to as tar or gravel roofing due to the fact that gravel layering is used to help minimize damage from the sun. The Las Vegas, NV contractors who belong to our network have many years of experience in the flat roofing business and want to help you with any aspect of flat roofing, including roofing estimate.
Flat roofing does not require heavy duty maintenance minimizing up keep costs. Generally they come with warranties of 12 years but they will need to be replaced once their durability ends. However flat roofing tends to leak as soon as it is punctured. This can be avoided by using paving stones to protect the roofing membrane. Avoid collection of water after the rains by installing drains at the edges.
