Flat Roof Drainage, Waterproofing, and Maintenance
Water is the biggest challenge for any flat roof. Because the surface has little or no slope, water that doesn’t drain away can pool and, over time, find its way through seams and edges. A well-built flat roof is planned around drainage from the start, with drains, edges, and flashing designed to move water off the roof and keep it out.
A little upkeep goes a long way. Keep drains and gutters clear of leaves and debris, look over the surface and seams after heavy storms, and have the roof checked now and then so small problems don’t turn into leaks. These simple habits help your roof last longer and protect what’s underneath it.
