Flat roofs require specialty membranes (TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen) — not standard asphalt shingles. Atlas Roofing replaces flat roofs in Beachwood on both commercial buildings and residential additions/garages with proper single-ply membrane systems.
In Beachwood, our commercial roofing work centers on the Beachwood Community Center area and similar properties — flat-roof systems (TPO, EPDM) and modified bitumen on retail, office, and small industrial buildings.
Mature tree canopy along Cedar, Fairmount, and South Park drops debris into valleys and gutters year-round, requiring proper gutter sizing and often gutter guards on tree-heavy lots.
Tudor and Colonial homes have steeper pitches and more complex multi-pitch rooflines with intersecting valleys, dormers, and chimney transitions that require experienced flashing work.
Depends on the application. TPO is the most common new commercial install (white reflective surface, energy efficient). EPDM (black rubber) is durable and proven. We'll recommend based on your building.
Most 'flat' roofs actually have a slight slope (typically 1/4" per foot) for drainage. True dead-flat roofs are rare and require special detailing.
