What flat roof work do we do in Flint?
EPDM rubber roofing
Where an older flat roof in Flint has a sound structure but a tired covering, EPDM is a straightforward upgrade: strip, check the deck, add a warm-roof build-up if the room below is heated, and bond the new membrane. It also makes a good base for a sedum green roof.
Flat roof repairs
Landlords and managing agents in Flint need a repair done properly once, rather than a quick fix that brings tenants back on the phone a month later. We trace the leak to its source and confirm the price in writing, so the repair can be approved and booked without guesswork.
Garage roofs
Garage roofs in Flint take the weather head-on, often with no shelter from surrounding buildings. Wind lifts loose edge trims, frost works at cracked felt, and leaves block small gutters. When several of these faults appear together, a new roof with fresh edges is usually better value than chasing each one.
