Fort Collins Flat Roofing – Flat Roofs and Low Slope Roofing
A roof that is almost flat and is often seen on commercial buildings is referred to as a low slope roofing systeem, or simply a flat roof. A Flat Roof can also be found on residential buildings and homes as well. A flat roof really is a misnomer though, as no roof should technically be “flat”. It may appear to be a flat roof from the ground, but each roof should have a built-in slope to account for water drainage hence the term low slope roofing systeem. Since there are very few residential homes with this type of flat roof system or low slope roofing system, most roofers are not equipped to work on them. Our crews are fully knowledgeable and trained on the unique and technical challenges that a flat roof can present, so give Fort Collins Roofing Consultants a call.

If you have a flat roof and notice pockets of standing water or moisture, that most likely is a positive indication of a problem developing or worse. This type of problem can usually be attributed to a weakened or sagging roof decking or possibly planning of drainage runoff could have been the culprit from the beginning.
