Should I Invest in a Flat Roof?

A flat, or low-slope, roof is not actually flat. Under the building codes in Florida, a roofing system must have a slight pitch of 5 to 15 degrees to allow for water drainage. In general, a flat roof is lighter weight and less expensive to install than a steep-slope roof made from asphalt shingles, slate or tile. Because it’s also a space-saving roofing alternative, low-slope roofs are oftentimes installed on commercial buildings, storage sheds, garages and screened porches.

Maintaining a flat roof is also less dangerous than taking care of a steep-slope roof, and some of the newer insulated flat roofing systems are highly energy efficient because they reflect the sun’s rays and block the escape of cooled air that’s inside the structure . Once only limited to white, tan or gray, there are now a broad palette of flat roofing colors to choose that will accommodate your structure’s style and personal taste.

How to Maintain a Low-Slope Roof

if properly maintained, a roof should last 15 to 20 years. Here’s how to maintain yours:

  • Never walk on your roof. Instead, inspect it every 6 months from an upper floor window
    or by climbing on a ladder.
  •  To ensure unimpeded water drainage, use a leaf blower to remove dirt, leaves and
    debris off your low slope roof. If you can’t reach an area from a ladder, hire a
    professional to clean it.
  •  To prevent water pooling or ponding, clear any sticks, leaves or other debris away from
    the drains.
  •  Trim any tree limbs or vegetation growth away from your roof’s surface.
  •  Check your roof for structural damage or water pooling any time heavy storms move
    through the area. Also look for signs of water damage on the ceilings of rooms that are
    directly under the roof.
