Flat Roofing

Specialized Flat Roof Solutions for Dallas

Flat and low-slope roofs require specialized knowledge that many residential roofers simply do not have. Water does not shed off a flat roof the way it does on a pitched one, which means the membrane system, drainage design, and installation details are all critical to preventing leaks and extending roof life.

Our family has been installing and maintaining flat roofing systems across Dallas since the mid-1990s. We started with commercial properties and expanded into residential flat roofs as modern architecture brought more flat-roof designs to Dallas's neighborhoods. Today, we install and service TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing systems on everything from downtown office buildings to Midtown townhomes.

Whether you need a new flat roof installation, a repair to stop persistent ponding water, or a full replacement of an aging system, our team has the training and experience to deliver a watertight solution that lasts.

Systems

Flat Roofing Systems We Install

TPO Membrane

Thermoplastic Polyolefin is the fastest-growing flat roofing material in the industry. Its white reflective surface reduces cooling costs, heat-welded seams create a monolithic waterproof barrier, and it resists UV, ozone, and chemical exposure. Ideal for commercial buildings and modern residential designs.

EPDM Rubber

Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer has a 50-year track record of proven performance. This synthetic rubber membrane is extremely durable, flexible in temperature extremes, and relatively easy to repair. Available in black or white, with lifespans of 25 to 30 years when properly maintained.

Modified Bitumen

A multi-layer system that combines the time-tested reliability of built-up roofing with modern polymer-modified asphalt. Torch-applied or self-adhered, mod-bit provides excellent waterproofing and can handle foot traffic better than single-ply membranes.

Questions

Flat Roofing FAQ

When properly installed and maintained, flat roofs are no more prone to leaks than pitched roofs. The key is correct installation of the membrane system, proper drainage design to prevent ponding water, and regular maintenance. Our family has installed flat roofs that have remained leak-free for 20-plus years.

TPO and EPDM membranes typically last 20 to 30 years with proper maintenance. Modified bitumen systems can last 15 to 25 years. Regular inspections and addressing minor issues before they become major problems significantly extends the life of any flat roofing system.

Most flat roofing membranes can handle occasional foot traffic for maintenance, HVAC access, or inspections. However, we recommend limiting traffic to necessary visits and using walkway pads in high-traffic areas to prevent wear and puncture damage.
