Your flat roof should protect your property, not become a constant source of stress and expensive repairs. When we handle your flat roofing project in Westbury, you get a watertight system designed specifically for Long Island’s challenging climate.
No more emergency calls during storms. No more water damage eating into your budget. No more wondering if your roof can handle the next nor’easter or heat wave.
You’ll have a professionally installed flat roof using premium TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen materials that resist UV damage, thermal expansion, and the freeze-thaw cycles that destroy inferior installations. Your building stays dry, your operations run smoothly, and your investment is protected for decades.
We’ve been serving Westbury and Nassau County property owners with honest, reliable flat roofing services. We understand exactly what Long Island weather does to flat roofs—from the salt air corrosion near the coast to the heavy snow loads that strain poorly designed systems.
Our team specializes in commercial and residential flat roofing because we’ve seen what works and what fails in this climate. We don’t cut corners on materials or installation techniques because we know you’re counting on us to get it right the first time.
When you work with us, you’re working with contractors who live and work in this community. We stand behind every job because our reputation depends on your roof performing exactly as promised.
We start with a thorough inspection of your existing roof structure, checking for drainage issues, structural integrity, and any hidden problems that could compromise your new roof. Using professional diagnostic tools, we identify exactly what needs attention before we begin.
Next, we remove old roofing materials properly and prepare the substrate. This isn’t a rush job—proper preparation prevents future problems. We install new insulation if needed, ensuring proper R-values to prevent ice dams and improve energy efficiency.
The membrane installation follows manufacturer specifications exactly. Whether you choose TPO for energy efficiency, EPDM for durability in cold weather, or modified bitumen for maximum longevity, we use proven techniques that create watertight seals around all penetrations and edges. Finally, we test the entire system and provide you with warranty documentation and maintenance recommendations.

Our flat roofing services cover everything your Westbury property needs. We install new flat roof systems using TPO, EPDM rubber, and modified bitumen materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s climate challenges.
Repair services include leak detection using infrared technology, membrane patching, flashing replacement, and drainage system improvements. We handle both emergency repairs and planned maintenance to extend your roof’s lifespan.
For Westbury’s commercial buildings, we understand the importance of minimal disruption to your operations. Many of our installations are completed in a single day, and we work around your schedule whenever possible. Residential clients appreciate our clean work practices and attention to protecting landscaping and property during the project.
A properly installed flat roof in Westbury typically lasts 15-25 years, depending on the material and maintenance. TPO and EPDM systems often reach the higher end of this range when installed correctly.
Long Island’s weather is tough on flat roofs—we get heavy snow loads, freeze-thaw cycles, UV exposure, and coastal storms. The key is using the right materials and installation techniques for these conditions. We use high-grade membranes with proper insulation and drainage systems designed specifically for our climate.
Regular maintenance extends lifespan significantly. We recommend bi-annual inspections to catch small issues before they become expensive problems. Most of our clients see excellent performance well into the 20+ year range with proper care.
For Westbury properties, we typically recommend TPO for energy efficiency and UV resistance, or EPDM for superior cold-weather performance. Modified bitumen works well for high-traffic commercial applications.
TPO (thermoplastic polyolefin) reflects heat effectively, reducing cooling costs during our hot summers. It also handles thermal expansion and contraction better than older materials. EPDM rubber roofing excels in cold weather and has excellent flexibility that prevents cracking during freeze-thaw cycles.
The choice depends on your specific building, budget, and priorities. Commercial buildings with HVAC equipment often benefit from TPO’s durability and energy efficiency. Residential applications might prefer EPDM for its longevity and weather resistance. We evaluate each project individually to recommend the best solution.
Proper drainage design is critical for flat roof success in Westbury. We create slight slopes (1/4 inch per foot minimum) toward drains and ensure adequate drainage capacity for Long Island’s heavy rainfall.
During installation, we use tapered insulation systems to direct water flow toward drains and scuppers. This prevents the standing water that destroys flat roofs and voids manufacturer warranties. We also install overflow drains as backup protection during extreme weather events.
Regular maintenance keeps drainage systems working properly. We clean drains and gutters, remove debris that could block water flow, and inspect for any settling or membrane issues that might create new low spots. Prevention is much less expensive than repairing water damage from poor drainage.
Yes, many flat roof leaks can be repaired effectively without full replacement. We use infrared technology to locate the exact source of leaks, even when water enters in one area but shows up somewhere else inside.
For membrane damage, we can patch with compatible materials that create permanent watertight seals. Flashing problems around vents, HVAC equipment, or roof edges are often repairable with proper techniques and materials. The key is addressing leaks quickly before water damage spreads.
However, if the roof has multiple leaks, widespread membrane deterioration, or structural issues, replacement becomes more cost-effective. We provide honest assessments of whether repair or replacement makes the most financial sense for your situation. Our goal is solving your problem properly, not selling you more work than you need.
Flat roofs in Westbury need bi-annual inspections, regular drain cleaning, and prompt attention to any issues. Spring inspections check for winter damage, while fall inspections prepare for harsh weather ahead.
We look for membrane damage, check all flashing and seals, clear drains and gutters, and remove debris. After major storms, quick inspections help catch problems before they worsen. Most maintenance tasks are straightforward, but professional inspections catch issues that untrained eyes miss.
Preventive maintenance is essential for warranty compliance. Most manufacturers require documented maintenance and prompt reporting of any issues. This isn’t just paperwork—proper maintenance typically doubles or triples your roof’s lifespan and prevents expensive emergency repairs during the worst weather.
Flat roof installation in Westbury typically ranges from $8-15 per square foot, depending on materials, roof complexity, and current condition. Simple re-roof projects cost less than complete tear-offs with structural work.
Several factors affect pricing: material choice (EPDM, TPO, or modified bitumen), number of penetrations and walls, insulation requirements, and accessibility. Commercial projects often have economies of scale, while residential jobs might need more detailed work around existing structures.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs clearly. No surprises or hidden fees. Most clients find our pricing competitive while offering superior materials and installation quality. Remember, the cheapest bid often becomes the most expensive roof when corners are cut during installation.
