Whether it's a residential flat section over a room addition, a garage with a flat top, or a full commercial building, Benton Harbor Roofing & Maintenance handles flat roofing in Benton Harbor with the same attention to detail. TPO for reflectivity, EPDM for budget, PVC for chemical resistance, modified bitumen for foot traffic.
Modified bitumen is our recommendation for residential flat roofs and high-traffic commercial applications. Two-ply torch-applied SBS system with a granulated cap sheet handles foot traffic, thermal cycling, and MI UV exposure. It's the toughest flat roof membrane for everyday abuse.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Membrane Assessment
We inspect the membrane surface, seam integrity, flashing condition, penetration seals, drain function, and overall drainage pattern. Core samples reveal whether the existing insulation is dry or waterlogged. Full findings provided in a written report.
Detailed Proposal
We present options, not ultimatums. If a repair extends your flat roof 5-10 years, that might be the smartest investment right now. If the insulation is waterlogged and the membrane is failing, replacement is the answer. We lay out the facts.
Membrane Installation
Flat roof installation requires specialized equipment and training. Our crew uses calibrated hot-air welders for TPO and PVC, torching equipment for modified bitumen, and proper adhesive systems for EPDM. Every seam, flashing, and penetration detail gets individual attention.
Completion & Warranty
Final roof inspection with drainage verification. Warranty paperwork provided. We recommend a maintenance plan to keep your flat roof performing and your warranty valid for its full term.
