Flat Roof Replacement & Transformation

THE CHALLENGE

The homeowners had an aging tar roof that was actively leaking and required shoveling every winter to protect the structure. It was due for a replacement, but more importantly, they had a vision of a beautiful outdoor space that they could use all summer long.

ON SITE DISCOVERY

After we stripped the old roof off, the team discovered the roof was sloped in the wrong direction. Often a challenge with older flat roofs where we aren’t always sure where in the system the sloping was set, because it’s not something you can see until you’ve dug in. In this case, the sloping was installed on the trusses. This is where our experienced project manager and team came in.

WHAT WE DID

We stopped and assessed the existing structure. The team re-leveled the entire roof before installing the new tapered insulation system. On top of that we added curbs to accept future railings and a comprehensive drainage system to move water off the roof quickly. All encased by a well installed EPDM membrane to seal it all together for max protection. 

THE RESULT

No more leaks and a roof that's now ready to support the homeowner’s vision of a rooftop deck, garden, and railing system. What used to be a liability is now a usable outdoor space the owners can enjoy for years to come.
