Flat Roof installation in Richmond, Virginia

Check out this flat roof our Retex Roofing team replaced in Richmond, Virginia!

Flat roofs are nearly horizontal in pitch, with the slightest slope to allow water to drain, rather than sit, on top of the roof. The two main types of flat residential roof membranes are modified bitumen and single-ply, both with their own advantages and disadvantages.

In this case, this Richmond homeowner opted for a modified bitumen roof. The main advantages of this flat roof are its ability to handle high and low temperature extremes and changes; its installation versatility; and its multi-layer structure, which creates a thicker roof layer for protection against Mother Nature. The major drawback to modified bitumen is its more-intensive – and therefore expensive – installation process, with multiple applications and skilled labor required for proper installation.
