Flat roofs require specialty membranes (TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen) — not standard asphalt shingles. Atlas Roofing replaces flat roofs in Highland Heights on both commercial buildings and residential additions/garages with proper single-ply membrane systems.
Commercial roofing in Highland Heights follows the Wilson Mills Road corridor and similar arterial roads, where retail and small commercial properties typically run TPO or EPDM flat-roof systems.
Highland Heights' housing skews newer than the inner-ring suburbs to the west — most homes along Wilson Mills, Highland, and Bishop are 1960s-2000s, so tear-offs typically only have one or two layers and decking is generally in good shape.
The 1990s-2000s colonials with steep-pitched roofs and front-facing gables need careful kickout flashing at the wall-roof intersections, which is the most common point of failure we see.
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.
