1. The Challenge (The "Before")
The original roof had reached the end of its functional life, suffering from:
- Complete Material Failure: The old modified bitumen was stripped away, revealing significant wear and past patch jobs.
- Substrate Exposure: Exposed wood plank decking required critical inspection for rot and structural sagging.
- Complex Penetrations: Multiple skylights and HVAC vents were primary failure points where leaks typically begin.
2. The Solution (The "After")
We professionally installed a Single-Ply Membrane system featuring:
- High Reflectivity: "Cool Roof" light-gray surface significantly reduces UV thermal load.
- Precision Flashing: Every vent and skylight sealed with reinforced matching flashing boots.
- Improved Drainage: Smooth surface prevents "ponding" that plagues older flat roofs.
