Flat roofing is what separates experienced contractors from general roofers. The materials are different, the installation methods are different, and the failure points are different. La Jose Roofing & Maintenance has been installing flat roofs in La Jose for 22 years. We know what works and what doesn't in PA's climate.
PVC membrane is the only flat roofing material that resists animal fats and chemical exposure from rooftop grease exhaust. If you own a restaurant or commercial kitchen in La Jose, PVC is the right choice. TPO and EPDM will deteriorate when exposed to kitchen grease venting.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Flat Roof Inspection
We inspect the membrane surface, seam integrity, flashing condition, penetration seals, drain function, and overall drainage pattern. Core samples reveal whether the existing insulation is dry or waterlogged. Full findings provided in a written report.
Your Options
Your proposal includes membrane type, insulation R-value, drainage design, and warranty coverage. If multiple options make sense, we price all of them so you can compare and choose what fits your budget and goals.
Expert Flat Roof Crew
Our flat roof crew installs per manufacturer specifications and NRCA guidelines. TPO seams hot-air welded and probe-tested. Modified bitumen torch-applied in two plies. EPDM fully adhered with proper lap adhesive. Tapered insulation installed to create positive drainage.
Warranty & Drainage Test
After installation, we verify drainage by checking water flow to all drain points. No ponding. Every seam tested. Manufacturer warranty registered, 15-20 year coverage depending on system and build-up.

Why Choose La Jose Roofing & Maintenance for Flat Roofing?
Core Sampling & Testing
Before recommending replacement or coating, we core sample the roof to check insulation moisture. Waterlogged insulation means tear-off. Dry insulation means options.
Specialized Flat Roof Crew
Flat roofing requires different skills and equipment than sloped roofing. Our flat roof crew does this work every week, hot-air welders, torch kits, and adhesive systems are their daily tools.
Drainage Solutions
We solve ponding water with tapered insulation systems. Minimum quarter-inch per foot slope to drains or edges. Ponding is the number one flat roof killer. We eliminate it.
Maintenance Programs
Semi-annual flat roof inspections keep your warranty valid and catch problems early. Drain clearing, seam checks, and flashing inspection, all documented.
