Flat Roof Maintenance

April 30, 2023

Do You Live in the Land of Dumb Roofs That Are Flat?

How to Maintain a Flat Roof.

Maintaining a flat roof is an important part of keeping a building in good condition. A flat roof is more susceptible to damage from the elements than a pitched roof, so proper maintenance is essential. Here are some steps that can be taken to maintain a flat roof:

Inspect the roof periodically for signs of damage. Look for cracks, blisters, or other signs of wear and tear that could lead to water damage.
Properly maintain the roof's drainage system. Ensure that the drains are free of debris and clear of any clogs so that water can flow freely.
Repair any cracks or blisters as soon as they are noticed. This will help keep water from getting into the building, which can cause serious damage.
Seal any seams in the roof to prevent water from getting into the building. Seams should be checked every few years and resealed as necessary.
Clean the roof regularly to prevent the buildup of dirt and debris. This will help reduce the amount of water that can get into the building.
Trim any trees or plants that are near the roof. This will help keep debris from building up and causing damage to the roof.
