Different Types of Flat Roofing
There are four major types of flat roofs including metal, EPDM, built-up, and modified bitumen.
- Metal flat roofs: These are the most common and are typically made out of aluminum, which is exceptionally durable. This material lasts more than thirty years and reflects heat, making it an energy efficient option. As for downsides, you won’t be able to install any other kind of roofing on top of metal flat roofs as you could with asphalt shingles, for example. So, in the case of a renovation, the entire roof would need to be demolished and replaced.
- EPDM: Also called, ethylene propylene diene monomer, flat roofs are just a fancy way to say that these roofs are made from a synthetic blend of rubber. Most often used for large office spaces, it’s a durable and affordable option for flat roofing. EPDM flat roofs are easy to install, but they’re also prone to leakages. So, it’s important that the flat roof installation contractors make sure the seams are sprayed with a protective sealant. These coatings will add cost but are well worth it to prevent water damage.
- Built-up flat roofs: BUR roofs are a mixture of tar and gravel. This option has become popular because they’re aesthetically pleasing, they make your home more energy efficient, and they are quite durable thanks to the many layers. There are some downsides though. The layers of built-up flat roofing can make it very heavy, so your home will need a thorough evaluation to be sure the structure can bear the weight. Plus, the installation process creates a hazardous area so you won’t be able to live in your house during the renovation.
- Modified bitumen: Flat roofs are an affordable option but aren’t often used due to their delicate installation process. Because this flat roofing is secured using a blowtorch, it’s imperative that only seasoned flat roofing contractors do the installation. For most people, the dangers outweigh this flat roof cost but, if you’re willing to go for it, it’s a great budget-friendly option.
Reasons to Install Flat Roofing
One of the main reasons people opt for flat roofing even though it’s not very common is because of just that – it’s not very common. You’ve probably seen celebrity-designed homes with modern floor to ceiling windows and a sleek flat rooftop. Those are the types of unique properties that will benefit from a durable flat roof.
Another reason people might choose flat roofing is that it’s energy efficient. Due to their large surface area, they’re an excellent option for those wishing to capture solar energy to power their home, and many of these roofing options reflect heat to keep your energy costs low.
As with anything, there will be downsides, and flat roofs are no different. Since there’s no slope on these roofs for water to run off of after a storm, for example, it’s common for flat roofs to have water build-up in one area or another. Plus, they’re usually made of a more porous material than say a clay roof tile, making them even more susceptible to water damage.

Eric and his crew are very professional. After talking with Eric it was clear that he knew everything about roofs. It was fast scheduling and they did the new total roof install in just one day! I'm really pleased with the quality … More of shingles and the long lifespan of 50 years. It even comes with a transferable golden pledge warranty if I were to sell the house. I'm very happy with my new roof.

Eric and his crew from TKPA Roofing were extremely knowledgable and professional. When we needed a new roof, Eric was very patient and professional with his inspection and educating us on what we needed and why. In addition, his crew was … More timely, efficient, and very fast. I would trust Eric and TKPA with anything involving my roof or windows and highly recommend their services. Thank you guys!

Contacted Eric reference to getting a leak fixed. He advised me he would come out after lunch on October 3rd. I called him back around 5pm that evening and he stated he was busy but was still coming out within an hour. Two hours later I … More get a text telling me traffic is bad and he couldn't make it out that day. I attempted to text him the following day to see when he could come out and have gotten no response even though the text shows “read.” Did not even have the decency to respond.
I understand this isn’t a big job and Im sure I took backseat to bigger and higher-paying jobs, but you have to take care of the smaller jobs too if you care anything about your reputation. Tells me all I need to know about this company. I ended up wasting a day and a half waiting around the house when I could be calling someone else that is willing to help. Thanks for nothing. -

He explained what needed to be done. I did an insurance … More claim. He was right here when the insurance inspector came. Mr Eric took care of all the paperwork within 5 day I had my check. They came out and repair my roof very professional work cleaned the yard and left no mess. I didn't have to do anything Mr.Eric took care of everything for us. Great job.
