Benefits of a Flat Roof
In a sunny area like Los Angeles, a flat roof can be a fantastic option for your home. The mild climate will allow you to take full advantage of a flat roof’s benefits with virtually none of its drawbacks. Here are the benefits to owning a flat roof:
- Low Cost - A flat roof is cheaper to build, repair, and maintain than a pitched roof.
- Versatile - Use your flat roof to install a rooftop garden, solar panels, or a deck for entertaining friends.
- Energy Efficient - A flat roof disperses warm air away from your home, keeping it cooler than a pitched roof would.
- Modern - Want that sleek, minimalist aesthetic for your home? A flat roof will give it to you.
- Easy to Install - Enjoy your new roof within two or three days with less mess and fuss.
When to Replace a Flat Roof
A good quality, well-maintained flat roof should last about 20 to 35 years. You’ll know it’s time to replace it when the roof begins to develop large cracks, tears, or separations in the material. You may also notice water pooling in certain areas, or dark stains where water has been pooling during wet weather. You’ll also want to consider replacing your roof when it develops leaks that are difficult to find and repair. Basically, signs of failing materials are signs that it’s time to replace the roof.

Flat Roof Materials
Nearly all flat roofs start with a layer of plywood and insulation. The outer material, however, will depend on how you want your roof to look, how you intend to use it, and how much you want to spend. A flat roof can be finished with any of the following:
- Metal sheeting
- Tar and gravel
- Torch-on felt
- Synthetic rubber membrane
- PVC membrane
- TPO membrane
- Fibreglass
- Foam or silicone spray coatings
The rubber and plastic membranes, along with metal sheeting, are popular choices due to their durability, heat reflection, and water resistance. Our certified roofing professionals can help you choose the right material for your roof.
Flat Roof Replacement Cost
How much your replacement roof costs will depend on your roof’s size and complexity, repairs needed to the underlying wood (if any), and the type of replacement materials chosen. An average replacement cost for a flat roof is about $6 per square foot. But the best way to determine your replacement roof costs is to request a free quote from us today.
