Repairing Flat Roofs
What Is This About?
Flat roofs would seem to develop more problems than pitched roofs but some of the problems can be avoided with a little preventative maintenance. This means a flat roof should be inspected for cracks, exposed nailheads and flashing and general damage at least twice annually, four times if possible.
Flat roofs are constructed for a series of asphalt roll roofing and/or asphalt building paper criss-crossed and "hot mopped" with hot asphalt liquid. A layer of gravel or crushed stone is embedded in the hot asphalt to finish off the surface. Because of this construction, flat roofs are usually installed by a professional roofer since the equipment would be too expensive for a homeowner to buy especially for a 1-time job. However there are some maintenance repairs that you can make and these repairs are detailed in this guide.
