While flat roofs are often associated with poor drainage systems, they are also ideal for your Maryland commercial property. These roofs provide your commercial property with many benefits that only this roof can bring. Let’s take a closer look at these roofs for your Maryland roof.
Lower Maintenance and Higher Durability
A flat roofing system does not have any slope to it, making it easier to keep clean and to maintain compared to pitched roofs. With a pitched roof, each piece of material is its own structure. But when you purchase a flat roof, the entire area is connected, making it more durable. When you use a thermoplastic olefin (TPO) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) material, your roof will provide ample protection against ultraviolet rays from the sun and be able to resist wear and constant weather exposure. Flat roofs can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years depending on the material and can be restored to add life onto your roofing material.
Seamless Leak Protection
When the membrane sections of your roof are installed, they go through a bonding process that causes all the seams to disappear on a chemical level. This membrane will leave no breaks in coverages, which will protect your building from leaks and water damage. If the membrane of your flat roof does spring a leak, a professional restoration contractor will be able to repair the leak with a fresh coat of bonding material to take care of the problem.
Extra Space
When it comes to storage for your business, there is only so much stuff you can store in your commercial space. But with a flat roof, you are able to store your extra equipment on the roof without even worrying about it being stolen or taking up too much space. This extra space could hold tools, a break area for your employees, or your HVAC system. Need some extra restaurant seating? Choose a flat roof for a rooftop bar and a beautiful view of the surrounding area.
