What Are Flat Roofs?

Just like the name sounds, flat roofs are horizontal building coverings without an incline. Flat roofs are commonly found on industrial and commercial buildings. Warehouses, packaging plants, factories, shopping malls, major retail stores, and other large buildings tend to have flat roofs. You can also find flat roofs on residential and community centers such as hospitals, schools, dormitories, apartment complexes, municipal buildings, private homes, and more.

Flat roofs offer benefits that are especially useful for large, busy buildings. This building style makes it easy to service rooftop utilities such as HVAC units and solar panels. It’s common to see flat-roofed buildings that house many different clients. Tenants can all enjoy reduced maintenance needs and strong protection under a single flat roof.?

How To Know When Your Flat Roof Needs To Be Replaced

Some kinds of roof damage are obvious. Holes, leaks, and missing parts of the roof are all clear signs that your roof needs to be replaced. These kinds of damage are often found during severe weather. Check on your roof after heavy storms, high winds, or winter snows to see how it’s holding up. Iron Shield Roofing is ready to help whenever storm damage strikes.

However, other signs are more subtle. A flat roof is an important part of your building’s ecosystem. You might not notice anything different about the roof itself, but problems can crop up in other areas. The following situations are signs that your roof may be having problems:

• Increasing utility bills
• Drafts or gusty parts of the building
• Indoor humidity
• Temperature changes throughout the building
• Pest infestations
• Leaks
• Unusual sounds from overhead

Iron Shield Roofing offers roof inspection services. We can help you uncover any concerns with your roof and explore your next steps.

Flat Roofing Services From Iron Shield Roofing

Iron Shield Roofing is your Edmonton flat roofing expert. We have decades of experience working in the Edmonton area. We're familiar with the special challenges that Canadian roofs need to withstand, such as wind, rain, and heavy snow. That’s why we offer a range of proven flat roofing solutions to protect and enhance any building. Explore the flat roofing replacement services we offer.

SBS Modified Bitumen (Styrene Butadiene Styrene) Roofs

SBS Modified Bitumen (Mod Bit) membranes are installed as a multi-ply system, comprised of two or three plies or layers. SBS Modified Bitumen roofs are made with a special blend of polyester and modified bitumen. These industrial-strength materials are then treaded with styrene butadiene styrene (SBS). SBS makes the roofing surface more elastic, meaning it can absorb foot traffic and impacts without taking on damage.

SBS Modified Bitumen roofs offer a range of benefits. These roofs are watertight, energy-efficient, flexible, and tough. Iron Shield Roofing can install your new SBS Mod Bit roof quickly, efficiently, and economically.

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) Roofs

EPDM (Ethelene, Propylene and Diene Monomer) is a durable, temperature-resistant rubber roofing membrane. Polyester reinforcements make EPDM roofs strong, flexible, and moisture-resistant. These roofs have been used in Canada for more than 50 years because they’re dependable and trustworthy. EPDM is a highly flexible material that can expand and shrink without damage. This flexibility means that EPDM roofs are well-suited for extreme Canadian temperature changes.

EPDM roofs are especially useful for buildings with lots of rooftop equipment, machinery, protrusions, and other unusual elements. EPDM is flexible enough to mould around any rooftop obstacle.?

This roofing style is also ideal for buildings that struggle with pooling water. If your flat roof is uneven, slanted, or dips in sections, you already know that water accumulation can be a major structural hazard. EPDM reduces snow and ice accumulation and helps protect your roof against rain as well.

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)?Roofs

PVC (polyvinyl chloride) roofs are a stable option that can be customized to meet your specific needs. PVC roofing membranes are easy to enhance with modifiers, colouring dyes, and plasticizers. If part of your roof is visible from within your building, a coloured PVC roofing system can create an appealing look for your customers and clients.

PVC roofs offer high chemical stability that brings a range of benefits. These roofs are oil-resistant, waterproof, fire-retardant, and solar reflective. You can cut down on energy usage and protect your building at the same time by installing a PVC roofing replacement.

TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin)?Roofs?

TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) roofs are single-ply, or single-layer, roofs that provide many features of multi-ply installations. TPO has lots of the same benefits as EPDM and PVC roofs. For example, these roofs are highly resistant to impacts, tears, punctures, and weather. TPO roofs are also energy-efficient because they reflect UV radiation away from buildings. This UV reflection lowers your building’s energy costs and reduces the thermal sink effect.

If you’re looking for an eco-friendly roofing choice, TPO is a great option. These roofs use 100% recyclable materials for increased sustainability.?

Tar And Gravel (Built Up) Roofs

Tar and gravel or built up roofs are a traditional option with a long track record of success. These roofing systems use multiple layers of asphalt and gravel to coat your roof. Each layer of tar and gravel builds upon the rest to provide a solid, protective layer.?

Built up roofs are widespread throughout Canada. These systems are easy to repair and deliver multiple layers of protection. These roofs provide powerful elemental protection, so it’s no surprise that they’re so popular.
