Materials
Flat Roofing Materials for Brooklyn Properties
Each flat roofing material has its own strengths. The right one depends on your building, how the roof is used and your budget.
EPDM Rubber RoofingA single-piece rubber membrane that stays flexible through New York heat and freezing winters. A common choice for brownstones and rowhouses.
TPO RoofingA white, heat-welded membrane that reflects sunlight and can lower cooling costs on the top floor. Popular on multifamily and commercial buildings.
PVC RoofingA heat-welded membrane that resists chemicals, grease and standing water. Often used on restaurants and mixed-use buildings.
Built-Up Roofing (BUR)Several layers of roofing felt and asphalt, topped with gravel or a coating. Heavy, tough and well suited to large commercial roofs.

Homes & buildings
Flat Roofing for Brooklyn Homes and Commercial Buildings
We work on brownstones, rowhouses, apartment buildings, mixed-use properties and commercial buildings. Each type needs its own plan.
On brownstones and rowhouses, we plan for parapet walls, shared roof lines with neighbors and narrow roof access. On apartment and mixed-use buildings, we schedule the work to keep disruption low for tenants and businesses. On every roof, we check drainage so water flows to the drains instead of pooling.

It depends on your building type, roof size, how the roof is used and your budget. We inspect your roof and explain the best options for it.
How long can a flat roof last?
A flat roof’s life depends on the material, how well it was installed and how it is maintained. Regular inspections and quick repairs help it last longer.
