Flat Roofing Systems We Install and Repair

Our team works with all major flat roofing systems used on homes, multifamily buildings, additions, garages, porches, and low-slope residential roofing structures across New Jersey.

TPO Roofing New Jersey

TPO roofing (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) is one of the most popular flat roofing systems in New Jersey because of its energy efficiency, durability, and strong waterproof performance. TPO membranes are heat welded at the seams, creating a strong watertight seal resistant to leaks and UV exposure.

• Energy-efficient white reflective membrane
• Strong UV and weather resistance
• Heat-welded waterproof seams
• Excellent for residential and low-slope roofing
• Long lifespan with proper installation

EPDM Rubber Roofing New Jersey

EPDM roofing is a durable rubber roofing membrane widely used on flat roofs throughout New Jersey. EPDM performs well in cold weather and offers long-term flexibility and weather resistance.

• Flexible rubber roofing membrane
• Strong resistance to cold temperatures
• Long-lasting flat roofing option
• Cost-effective flat roof system
• Common on residential flat roofs and additions

Torch Down Roofing New Jersey

Torch down roofing, also called modified bitumen roofing, is a very popular flat roofing system for New Jersey homes, row houses, porches, garages, and multifamily properties. This roofing system uses heat-applied waterproof membranes designed to resist standing water and heavy weather conditions.

Torch down roofing is especially common on older homes and low-slope roof sections throughout Newark, Irvington, Elizabeth, Union, and surrounding NJ cities.

• Excellent waterproof protection
• Strong resistance to ponding water
• Heat-welded seams for durability
• Good option for residential flat roofs
• Long-lasting modified bitumen system

Modified Bitumen Roofing

Modified bitumen roofing systems combine asphalt-based waterproof layers with reinforcement materials for durability and flexibility. These systems are commonly used on residential flat roofs throughout New Jersey and are known for strong weather resistance.

Flat Roof Installation New Jersey

Proper flat roof installation is critical for long-term performance. Incorrect installation is one of the leading causes of premature leaks, membrane failure, ponding water, and drainage problems.

ABC Contractor LLC follows manufacturer specifications and proper installation methods for all flat roofing systems.

• Full roof structure inspection
• Old roofing removal when necessary
• Roof decking inspection and repair
• Insulation installation
• Membrane installation
• Heat-welded or sealed waterproof seams
• Drainage and slope evaluation
• Flashing installation around penetrations
• Final waterproof inspection

Flat Roof Repair New Jersey

Flat roofs can develop leaks and drainage issues over time. Many flat roof problems become worse if repairs are delayed, especially during New Jersey storms and winter weather.

ABC Contractor LLC provides flat roof repair in New Jersey for:

• Open seams and membrane separation
• Ponding water areas
• Blisters and bubbling membranes
• Damaged flashing
• Drainage problems
• Roof penetrations and vent leaks
• Punctures and tears
• Cracked modified bitumen surfaces
• EPDM shrinkage and seam failure
• TPO membrane damage

Ponding Water on Flat Roofs

Ponding water is one of the most serious flat roofing problems in New Jersey. Water that sits on a flat roof for more than 48 hours can accelerate membrane deterioration, increase structural weight, weaken seams, and lead to long-term leaks.

Common causes of ponding water include:

• Poor drainage design
• Clogged roof drains
• Improper roof slope
• Roof settlement over time
• Old or damaged insulation
• Membrane deterioration

ABC Contractor LLC corrects ponding water problems through drainage improvements, tapered insulation, membrane repair, drain clearing, and slope correction when needed.

Flat Roof Leak Repair New Jersey

Flat roof leaks are different from shingle roof leaks because water can travel beneath the membrane before becoming visible inside the property. This makes professional leak detection extremely important.

Our flat roof leak repair process includes:

• Membrane inspection
• Seam inspection
• Drain and flashing inspection
• Ponding water analysis
• Leak source identification
• Waterproof membrane repair
• Flashing replacement when needed
• Drainage correction

Our goal is to repair the actual leak source and not just apply temporary patches.

Flat Roof Replacement New Jersey

Sometimes flat roof replacement is more cost-effective than repeated repairs. If the membrane is old, leaking in multiple areas, or severely damaged, replacement may provide better long-term protection and lower maintenance costs.

Signs your flat roof may need replacement:

• Recurring leaks in multiple areas
• Widespread membrane cracking
• Open seams throughout the roof
• Large ponding water areas
• Soft or damaged roof decking
• Major insulation moisture damage
• Flat roof system older than 20 years

Flat Roofing Cost in New Jersey

Flat roofing cost depends on the roofing system, roof size, tear-off requirements, roof condition, insulation needs, and drainage complexity.

• TPO roofing installation: $7 – $12 per sq ft
• EPDM roofing installation: $6 – $10 per sq ft
• Torch down roofing installation: $8 – $14 per sq ft
• Flat roof repair: $500 – $3,500+
• Flat roof replacement: $4,500 – $18,000+
