Flat Roof Services
Expert EPDM, TPO, and modified bitumen installation, repair, and maintenance in Rochester.
Flat Roof Services in Rochester, NY
Low-slope and flat roofs succeed or fail on details: drainage, seams, penetrations, and UV stability. We install and service EPDM, TPO, and modified bitumen systems that address ponding and thermal movement from day one. Our designs start with slope: adding tapered insulation where needed to push water to drains and scuppers, and reinforcing perimeters and corners where wind forces peak.
Installation Done Right
For TPO, we heat-weld seams with calibrated equipment and probe for continuity. On EPDM, we use proven adhesives and seam tapes, with term bars and cover strips at transitions. For mod-bit, we lay consistent, code-compliant plies with correct bleed-out and lap alignment. Penetrations get pre-manufactured boots where possible and field-fabricated flashings where necessary—always reinforced and tested.
Leak Diagnostics & Repairs
We use infrared and moisture meters to trace intrusion. Repairs aren’t guesswork; they’re targeted membrane replacement, re-detailing, and accessory upgrades that survive Rochester winters. We document everything so you can see causes and fixes clearly.
Maintenance That Prevents Emergencies
Debris removal, seam checks, drain clearing, and curb/edge fastener reviews on a schedule aligned to seasons (pre-winter and post-thaw) reduce surprise calls and extend service life.

Why Flat Roof Expertise Matters in Rochester
Ponding water freezes, expands, and pries at seams. UV cooks membranes. Without slope correction and disciplined detailing, problems compound. Our specs fight those forces: tapered insulation schemes, reinforced corners, walk pads near equipment, and compatible coatings where restoration makes sense. Rochester weather is tough—but a purpose-built flat roof makes it routine.
Energy & Cost Advantages
White TPO reflects heat, lowering summer cooling loads; added insulation stabilizes interior temps in winter. Coating restorations can defer replacement by 5–10 years when the membrane is sound—a budget-smart bridge to the next cycle with minimal disruption to occupants.

Planned Service = Fewer Surprises
We craft maintenance schedules that match your building’s use and risk profile—quarterly for high-traffic rooftops, semiannual for typical homes. Each visit generates a punch list and photo log, so you always know status, cost exposure, and next steps.
Frequently Asked Questions
We install EPDM, TPO, and modified bitumen systems, each chosen for your building’s needs. EPDM offers durability and flexibility, TPO reflects heat and improves energy efficiency, and mod-bit provides a robust, layered solution for long-term performance.
We correct slope issues with tapered insulation, ensure drains and scuppers are clear and properly located, and reinforce perimeters where water likes to sit. Good drainage design keeps water moving and prevents freeze–thaw damage.
We use infrared scans, moisture meters, and visual inspections to trace the exact source of water intrusion. Repairs include targeted membrane replacement, seam re-welding or re-sealing, and flashing upgrades—never just guesswork patches.
Yes. If the membrane is sound, we offer elastomeric coating systems that can add 5–10 years of life, improve UV resistance, and reduce cooling costs. We always repair defects first to ensure the coating performs.
At minimum, twice per year—once before winter and once after thaw. For commercial or high-traffic roofs, quarterly checks are ideal. We clear debris, inspect seams, check drains, and tighten fasteners to catch issues before they become emergencies.
