Flat Roofing Challenges

One place we know that quality is of the utmost importance is on the installation of flat roofs. Flat roofing has challenges that pitched, shingle roofs do not. Because of this, extra care is needed in certain aspects of this type of roofing. We will look at a few of those challenges now.

• Pitched roofs have gravity to help the water flow down the roof and into the gutters. Flat roofs have to deal with the potential of water pooling on the surface, and if the roofing material is not sealed properly, leaking through to the under layers and even into the living or commercial space in the building. To ensure this doesn’t happen, flat roofs can’t be actually flat. A slight slope must be maintained to ensure the flow of water to the drains and gutters.
• The most common place for leaks to occur on a flat roof is the connecting points. These points are where the roofing material meets ends at the edges of roof, at the chimney, and around all the other elements that can be found on a roof, such as skylights.
• If the plywood has sustained water damage, it can lead to a failure of the roof. The last thing you need is a roof that gives way when it is walked on or collapses under a heavy, wet New York snow. That’s why we replace the plywood substrate when it is called for when working on a roof, whether it is flat or pitched.

We know that a quality job is worth the extra time it takes to complete. Sure, you might be able to find a less expensive quote if you look long enough, but we know that our prices are fair given the high quality of work that we guarantee. When you hire Royal Renovators, you’ll be getting a team of roofers dedicated to the highest level of customer service and craftsmanship that will ensure that your flat roof lasts and performs.

FAQ

1. How Long Will My Roof Last in Brooklyn?

The life expectancy of a roof in New York can vary on a few factors, but a fair estimate would be 20-30 years depending on the material. This is typical for shingle and flat roofing which are most common in our area. Experienced Brooklyn roofers can provide accurate estimates based on the area standards.

2. Does the old roof need to be removed before installing the new one?

It is suggested to first remove your previous roof before applying the new one. There are benefits even if from an outside view it might not seem necessary. Firstly, the rotting or damaged spots under the outer and inner layers can be identified and replaced. This saves much more cost, time and effort in the future when a repair is necessary.

3. What roof type is most appropriate for my budget?

Shingles and flat roofs are the most economical roofing options in the Brooklyn area. The initial cost for flat roofs can be less but maintenance and water drainage needs to be planned properly for the future. Shingles are easier in the long run yet still have low initial costs but will need repair and placements as time passes.

4. Does my location impact roofing options?

In areas like New York where we receive all seasons and elements, it is very important to have high-quality roofs. Qualified roofers should be able to determine what is needed regarding sealant, materials, and quality.

5. How do I know when my roof needs to be repaired?

A damaged roof cannot always be easy to spot and an experienced roofing company will know exactly what to look for. But homeowners should be aware of missing or damaged shingles, water or snow buildup, or any leaks or discoloration.

6. How long does a roof repair take?

Roof repairs depend on the size and material of the roof. Usually, 1-2 days can be expected, one to remove the old roof and prepare an application, and the second day to install the new roof and then clean up. An experienced crew can usually accomplish this in one day.

7. What time of the year can a roof be replaced?

In the summer the natural heat can be relied upon to help sealants and glues dry, but in the winter completion time can be slightly slower since this must be done manually. Don’t hesitate to ask your roofing contractor for advice regarding the best times.

8. Will a new roof lower my energy bill?

Absolutely, a new roof can lower energy bills. This occurs because a new modern roof utilizes better insulation and materials which insulate the inside of the house. The roof and shingle color also play an important role in deflecting outside heat and sunshine which normally gets trapped inside the roof. Lastly, proper ventilation prevents excessive heat build-up and allows for fresh air to circulate in, which also extends the life of the roof.
