Guide 21: Flat Roofs

 

There are numerous type roofing materials specifically designed for use on flat or low slope roofs. Due to their design, flat roofs are more prone to leakage than steeper roofs and proper installation is essential. Leaks, when they do occur, are also more difficult to locate and correct. Since low slope/flat roofs are often neither readily accessible nor visible, they are often neglected. However, since they generally require more maintenance than most steep slope roofs they must be checked on a regular basis.
