Flat Roofs
Specialized solutions for low-slope roofing. Modified Bitumen & TPO systems.
Flat Roofs are roofs with a 2/12 pitch or less. Asphalt shingles or metal panels are not recommended on low pitch roofs. Instead, several other options are available including Modified Bitumen aka Roll Roof and TPO among others.
Low sloped roofs are primarily built over Car Ports, Patios, or small commercial buildings to large industrial applications.
Modified Bitumen
Modified Bitumen is a roofing membrane which gained popularity in the 70's and has been used for over 50 years on low slope or flat roofs, primarily on commercial applications and replaced the old Build-up Roofing (BUR) systems.
Modified Bitumen falls into two varieties; APP membranes (Atactic Polypropylene Membranes), commonly nicknamed "plastic asphalt" and SBS Membranes (styrene-butadiene-styrene) also referred to as "elastic" or "rubberized" asphalt.
SBS is a great option for high wind areas and extreme temperature changes which causes expansion and contraction of roofs.

TPO Roofs
If your home or your building has a low-sloped roof, perhaps TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) is a great alternative for you. Introduced in the 90's, TPO has been used on residential and commercial applications for almost 30 years thanks to its durability and flexibility properties.
TPO is a single-ply roofing membrane and is made of 3 layers; Thermoplastic polyolefin base layer, Polyester-reinforced fabric center, Thermoplastic polyolefin top layer and is available in different thickness depending on the application.
Benefits of TPO Roofing Systems
Energy Saving
Reflective white surface can help reduce heat absorption and decrease energy costs.
Durability
Heat and UV resistance.
Seam Strength
Seam strength is better due to heat-welding when installing. Also, less seams less areas for water intrusion.
Great Value
Excellent performance at a reasonable cost.
