Best Material for Your Flat Roof

Dec 18, 2021

What is the best material for your flat roof?

Shingles are not advised for a flat roof, or even a flat section of a shingled roofing system. If you have a flat or low-pitch roof, don’t shingle your roof!

Shingle roofing requires a minimum pitch of 2/12. This means that every 12 inches the roof rises 2 inches. This pitch allows water to roll off the roof. Without this minimum pitch, water pools on top of the shingles, which are not sealed. Eventually this water will leak through the shingles and causing thousands of dollars worth of damage to your home.

Silicone Coating for Flat Roofing

Silicone coating is a great option for flat roofs because it is not water based and therefore absorbs no moisture, allowing it to withstand pooling water indefinitely. Another bonus to silicone coating for flat roofing is the lifespan. When applied properly with the correct thickness, and proper annual maintenance performed, it can last up to 15 years.

“ Every aspect of this project was handled professionally and effectively by Surf & Turf. They communicated everything we needed to know well in advance. The project managers had everything well under control. The installers were truly amazing! This was probably one of the most challenging roofs they have replaced this year. Great care was taken to protect our home and our neighbors' properties. Surf and Turf was prepared, and cleaned up beautifully! Thank you Surf and Turf!! ”

“ Surf & turf roofing returned my call immediately. They sent a inspector out within a few days to discuss the job of having gutters installed. They started our job the following Monday as promised. They did a beautiful job of putting up seamless gutters. I like where they installed all the downspouts and the fact that they were secured properly. I am extremely pleased with the job they did and would recommend this company to anyone! ”

“ From start to finish Surf & Turf was great to deal with. Pricing was fantastic and they were the only estimate out of (5) that I received that actually inspected the roof and didn’t rely on remote satellite images. The crew they sent were top notch, pleasant to deal with and did a fantastic job overall. My front and backyard looked immaculate after they left. Thank you again for a great job, I will not hesitate to recommend your services. ”
