Flat Roofing for Pittsburgh Homes and Businesses
A local roofing service for Pittsburgh homeowners, row-house owners, landlords and building owners with flat roofs. We trace the problem to its source, put the price in writing first, and document every job with photos.
Trace it, document it, price it, fix it
Flat roofs have a reputation problem. Owners call about one leak and get told the whole roof needs replacing, or they pay for the same tar patch three times because nobody found where the water was really getting in. We work in a fixed order: find what actually failed, show you photos of it, give you a written price to fix it, and point out anything else that is close to failing so you can budget for it.
Most roofs are worth repairing, and many aging roofs are good candidates for a coating instead of a tear-off. When a roof truly needs replacing, we say so plainly, show you why, and explain what the new roof should do differently.
- Written scope and price before any work starts
- Photo report after every inspection and repair
- Repair, coating and replacement options laid out side by side
How we do business
Fix what is broken
If a flashing failed, we repair the flashing. We don't turn a leak call into a replacement pitch, and when replacement really is the better value, we show you the moisture readings and photos that prove it.
No surprise invoice
The price you approve before the work is the price you pay. If we find more once the roof is open, such as wet insulation or a rotted deck, you hear about it with photos and a price, and you decide.
Safe on the roof
Flat roofs have open edges, skylights and slick surfaces, and row-house roofs sit three stories over the sidewalk. Our crews follow fall-protection practices on every roof, and we keep your family, tenants and neighbors clear of the work.
A dry building, and a straight answer about what it costs
Most roof calls start with a stained ceiling tile or a bucket under a drip. You want the leak found, fixed properly and documented, at a price you knew before the work started.
We Trace Leaks to the Source
Water travels under a membrane before it drips. We find where it actually gets in, at the flashing, seam, drain or curb, instead of patching the spot above the stain and coming back next month.
A Written Price, Then the Work
You get the scope and the price in writing before anything starts, with repair, coating and replacement options laid side by side when more than one makes sense.
Photos of Everything
Every visit ends with photos of what failed and what was done, so the property manager, the owner and the insurer all see the same thing without climbing a ladder.
Every Flat Roof System
EPDM rubber, TPO, modified bitumen, PVC, built-up tar and gravel, and metal. We recommend the system that suits the building, not the one we happen to stock.
Built for Pittsburgh Winters
Freeze-thaw cycles open seams and flashings, wet snow and ice sit on flat roofs for weeks, and meltwater backs up at clogged drains. We repair with the next winter in mind.
Row Houses to Warehouses
The row-house roofs, porch roofs and additions that most shingle roofers turn down, and the storefronts, churches, schools and commercial buildings next door.
