Our Flat Roofing Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we inspect your entire flat roof system to identify current problems and potential issues. This includes checking drainage, membrane condition, flashing, and any penetrations like vents or HVAC units.

Next, we explain exactly what needs to be done and why, giving you options for repair versus replacement based on your roof’s condition and your budget. We don’t push unnecessary work, but we also don’t recommend band-aid solutions for serious problems.

During installation or repair, we protect your property and work efficiently to minimize disruption. You’ll know the timeline upfront and get updates if weather or unexpected conditions affect the schedule.

After completion, we clean up thoroughly and walk through the finished work with you, explaining maintenance tips that will extend your roof’s lifespan.

Flat Roofing Services Available

Complete Flat Roof Solutions

We handle TPO roofing installation for energy efficiency and durability, EPDM rubber roofing for reliable waterproofing, and modified bitumen systems for high-traffic commercial applications. Each material has specific advantages depending on your building’s needs and budget.

Glen Cove’s coastal location means your flat roof faces salt air, high winds, and temperature fluctuations that can stress roofing materials. We select and install systems designed to handle these local conditions.

Our leak detection services use advanced methods to find problem areas before they cause major damage. We also provide flat roof coating and waterproofing services that can extend your roof’s life significantly when applied correctly.

Emergency repairs are available when you have active leaks that can’t wait for regular business hours.

How long does a flat roof typically last in Glen Cove?

A properly installed flat roof in Glen Cove typically lasts 15-25 years, depending on the material and maintenance. TPO and EPDM systems often reach 20-25 years with regular maintenance, while modified bitumen usually lasts 15-20 years.

Glen Cove’s coastal climate affects lifespan because salt air and temperature swings stress roofing materials more than inland locations. Regular inspections and prompt repair of small issues can significantly extend your roof’s life.

The quality of installation matters more than the material choice in many cases. A well-installed EPDM roof will outlast a poorly installed TPO system every time.

TPO (thermoplastic polyolefin) is a white, reflective membrane that’s heat-welded at the seams, making it highly energy-efficient and great for reducing cooling costs. It’s more puncture-resistant than EPDM and performs well in Glen Cove’s variable weather.

EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) is a black rubber membrane that’s extremely durable and flexible, handling temperature changes without cracking. It’s typically less expensive than TPO and has a longer track record of performance.

For Glen Cove properties, TPO works well on buildings where energy efficiency is a priority, while EPDM is often chosen for its proven durability and lower upfront cost. Both can last 20+ years when installed properly.

Multiple leaks, widespread membrane damage, or a roof over 20 years old usually indicates replacement is more cost-effective than repairs. Single leaks or localized damage can often be repaired successfully.

Look for signs like water stains on interior ceilings, ponding water that doesn’t drain within 48 hours after rain, or visible cracks and splits in the roofing membrane. Soft spots when walking on the roof indicate underlying moisture damage.

We provide honest assessments because recommending unnecessary replacement work damages our reputation. If repairs will give you several more years of reliable service, we’ll tell you that instead of pushing for a full replacement.

Yes, we can perform emergency flat roof repairs during Glen Cove winters, though some materials and methods work better than others in cold conditions. Emergency repairs focus on stopping active leaks and preventing further damage until permanent repairs can be completed.

Temporary repairs using cold-applied materials and tarping can be done in most winter conditions. Permanent repairs with heat-welded TPO or fully adhered EPDM typically wait for temperatures above 45°F for optimal adhesion.

We prioritize emergency calls during storms because water damage gets exponentially worse the longer it continues. Even temporary repairs can save you thousands in interior damage costs.

Flat roof installation in Glen Cove typically ranges from $8-15 per square foot depending on the material, roof complexity, and current condition. TPO systems usually cost more upfront but offer energy savings, while EPDM provides excellent value for durability.

Factors affecting cost include roof size, accessibility, number of penetrations (vents, HVAC units), and whether tear-off of existing materials is needed. Complex drainage situations or structural repairs add to the project cost.

We provide detailed written estimates that break down material and labor costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Financing options are available for qualified customers.

Yes, we provide comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship on all flat roofing installations. Material warranties typically range from 15-30 years depending on the product, while our workmanship warranty covers installation quality.

Our warranties are backed by our local presence in Glen Cove – we’re not going anywhere, so you can count on us to honor warranty commitments. We also help coordinate manufacturer warranty claims when needed.

Regular maintenance helps preserve warranty coverage and ensures small issues get addressed before they become major problems. We offer maintenance programs to help property owners protect their investment and warranty coverage.
