We install and repair all major flat roofing systems used in South Florida — each with its own performance characteristics and price points.
Thermoplastic polyolefin — the most popular flat roofing system in South Florida. Heat-welded seams, reflective white surface, and excellent UV resistance.
Extremely durable synthetic rubber membrane ideal for residential flat roofs. Excellent resistance to UV, ozone, and extreme temperature swings.
A traditional asphalt-based system with excellent track record. Multiple application methods including torch-down, self-adhered, and cold-applied.
Blisters, seam failures, drainage issues, and ponding water — we diagnose and repair flat roofs correctly without band-aid solutions.
Ponding water is the #1 enemy of flat roofs. We add tapered insulation to improve drainage and eliminate ponding water problems.
Large commercial flat roof systems with proper specification, inspection protocols, and manufacturer warranties for property owners and facility managers.
The most common flat roof failure in South Florida is improper drainage. We assess and correct slope issues, install the right drain sizes, and eliminate ponding water before it destroys your membrane.
For TPO and certain other systems, heat-welded seams are 3x stronger than adhesive seams. We use hot-air welding equipment — not just glue and pray.
Flat roofs require proper documentation for insurance and commercial property purposes. We provide all manufacturer and workmanship warranty paperwork.
We use 60-mil or 80-mil TPO, never the thin 45-mil that cuts costs at the expense of performance.
We assess your existing system, identify failure points, check drainage, and recommend the right flat roofing system for your building.
For re-roofing, we identify any wet insulation in the existing system to determine what needs to be removed.
Proper insulation and tapered insulation to achieve positive drainage before any membrane goes down.
Proper installation with manufacturer-required overlaps, heat-welded seams (for TPO), and all penetration flashings completed correctly.
All drain connections, edge details, parapet walls, and penetrations are completed with appropriate flashing and sealants.
TPO is the most popular choice for good reasons — it's white (highly reflective, reducing cooling costs), durable, cost-effective, and the heat-welded seams create an essentially seamless waterproof membrane. EPDM is an excellent choice for residential flat roofs. Modified bitumen is a proven system that many contractors install incorrectly. We'll recommend the right system for your building and budget.
It depends on the extent of the problem and the age of the membrane. If you have isolated seam failures or a few punctures on a relatively new roof, repair makes sense. If the membrane is brittle, cracked, has widespread seam failures, or is saturated with moisture, replacement is the better investment. We'll give you an honest assessment with no pressure.
TPO: 20–30 years. EPDM: 20–30 years. Modified bitumen: 15–25 years. Actual lifespan depends heavily on installation quality, drainage, and maintenance. In South Florida, UV exposure and heat are particularly hard on flat roofs — proper reflective coatings or white membrane surfaces make a real difference.
In South Florida, the top causes are: poor drainage causing ponding water, improperly sealed seams or penetrations, improper installation without proper overlaps, inadequate insulation creating condensation issues, and maintenance neglect. Most of these are preventable with proper installation from the start.
More than a pitched roof, yes. We recommend twice-yearly inspections (especially before and after hurricane season), keeping drains clear of debris, and addressing any blisters or seam separations before they become leaks. A well-maintained flat roof will significantly outlast a neglected one.
Absolutely. We handle commercial TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen systems for office buildings, retail, warehouses, and multi-family properties throughout Broward and Palm Beach County. We provide manufacturer warranty documentation required for commercial property insurance.

The lifespan of a flat roof in South Florida depends heavily on the system used. TPO and modified bitumen systems typically last 15–25 years in the Broward and Palm Beach County heat, while properly maintained built-up roofing (BUR) can exceed 20 years. Routine inspections and prompt repairs are essential to maximizing lifespan in our climate.
TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) is one of the most popular flat roofing options in South Florida because it reflects UV rays and reduces cooling costs — a major advantage in Broward and Palm Beach County's year-round heat. Modified bitumen is another solid choice for residential flat roofs where durability and cost are top concerns.
Flat roofs are prone to ponding water and can develop small cracks or membrane failures that allow moisture intrusion. In South Florida's heavy rainy season, even minor damage can turn into a recurring leak. A licensed roofing contractor can perform a thorough inspection to find the root cause rather than just patching symptoms.
After a storm, signs of flat roof damage include blistering, membrane lifting, ponding in areas that previously drained, and interior water stains. A licensed storm damage restoration contractor in Broward or Palm Beach County can identify structural damage that isn't visible from the ground.
Many flat roof issues can be repaired if the damage is localized and the membrane is otherwise in good condition. However, if the system is aging, showing widespread cracking, or has multiple failing seams, a full replacement is typically more cost-effective for South Florida homeowners and commercial property owners in the long run.
