Modified bitumen
A tough, multi-layer membrane with a long track record in cold climates. A common choice for garages, additions and smaller commercial roofs.
Flat roofing in Red Deer
Flat and low-slope roofs for commercial buildings, garages and additions. A flat roof has no room for shortcuts, so we focus on drainage, seams and flashing.

What is included
Done properly, start to finish.
Water has to leave a flat roof, and it must not find a way in while it does. A replacement includes:
- Assessment of the existing membrane, insulation and deck
- Tear-off of failed roofing, or a recover where the roof below is sound
- Slope correction so water runs to the drains
- New membrane with fully sealed seams
- Flashing at walls, curbs, vents and other penetrations
- Drains, scuppers and edge metal
- Cleanup and haul-away
Options
Common systems
TPO
A single-ply, heat-welded membrane. The white surface reflects summer heat and the welded seams are very strong.
EPDM
A flexible rubber membrane that handles temperature swings well and is straightforward to repair.
Questions
Flat roofing: common questions.
Can a flat roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Often it can. If the membrane is in fair shape and the problem is limited to a seam, a drain or a section of flashing, a repair makes sense. We will show you what we find.
Do you do residential flat roofs?
Yes. We do garages, additions, porches and other low-slope sections on homes as well as commercial buildings.
How long does a flat roof last?
It depends on the system, the installation and the maintenance. A well-installed, well-drained roof can last decades. Having it checked from time to time catches small problems before they become leaks.
