Flat Roof Installation, Repair & Maintenance Services
Do you know your roof’s pitch? Your roof may even have sections with a different pitch. It is very important to install the right type of roofing system on your house, depending on your roof’s pitch. Mississippi Roofing and Construction Co. can identify the pitch and make suggestions as to what material works best for your roof. Sometimes, we find roofs that have been installed with a roof material not approved for that slope. Our flat roof specialists will ensure that doesn’t happen to your home or business.
Why Work With a Flat Roof Specialist
If your roof is below 4/12 (rise/span) pitch, the decision-making becomes more complicated for materials and installation methods. The lower the slope of a roof, the more likely it is to develop leaks over time due to standing water. A steep-sloped roof sheds water quickly but a flat roof can hold water longer, giving it more time to create a leak.
This is why it’s important to work with a roofing contractor who understands the local building code and warranty requirements for the type of roofing you are having installed. Mississippi Roofing and Construction Co. has repaired dozens of low-slope and flat roofs that were installed with the wrong materials for the roof design. When you live in an area where your roof is wet every day for weeks, a leak starts rotting wood quickly.
Whether the whole roof is low-slope or flat, or only sections are, such as the porch and transitions, it is important to install the right material for that roof section. When we write your estimate, we will suggest which products work best for your specific application. Mississippi Roofing and Construction Co. can integrate both steep-slope metal or shingles and low-slope products, such as modified bitumen, installing the material type and color that best suits your style and budget.
