Flat roofs require specialty membranes (TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen) — not standard asphalt shingles. Atlas Roofing replaces flat roofs in Parma Heights on both commercial buildings and residential additions/garages with proper single-ply membrane systems.
Commercial roofing in Parma Heights follows the Pearl Road corridor and similar arterial roads, where retail and small commercial properties typically run TPO or EPDM flat-roof systems.
Parma Heights' housing is overwhelmingly postwar — over 85% of homes in the southwest neighborhood were built between 1945 and 1964 — so tear-offs frequently involve multiple layers.
The Cape Cod and ranch dormer flashing patterns that define this housing era are where we focus the most detail.
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.
