Flat roofs don't drain like sloped roofs. Water sits instead of running off. That fundamental difference means flat roofing requires specialized materials, installation methods, and drainage solutions. South Brunswick Roofing installs and repairs TPO, PVC, EPDM, and modified bitumen flat roofing systems throughout South Brunswick.
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 NJ UV exposure. It's the toughest flat roof membrane for everyday abuse.
Call (732) 466-1707 for a free flat roof assessment. We inspect the membrane, seams, flashings, drains, and overall condition. Core samples check the insulation for moisture. You get an honest recommendation and a written estimate.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Free Evaluation
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.
System Recommendation
Based on inspection findings, we recommend the right solution: targeted repair, a coating system, or full replacement. Each option is priced with material specs, warranty terms, and expected lifespan.
Expert Flat Roof Crew
Insulation board cut and installed with staggered joints. Membrane installed over insulation per manufacturer specs. All penetrations (pipes, vents, HVAC curbs) receive custom-fabricated flashing. Drains and scuppers cleared and properly connected to the new membrane system.
Warranty & Drainage Test
After installation, we verify drainage by checking water flow to all drain points. No ponding. Every seam tested. Manufacturer warranty registered, 15-20 year coverage depending on system and build-up.
Why Choose South Brunswick Roofing for Flat Roofing?
Core Sampling & Testing
Before recommending replacement or coating, we core sample the roof to check insulation moisture. Waterlogged insulation means tear-off. Dry insulation means options.
