A flat roof that ponds water is a flat roof with a problem. Standing water degrades membrane material, compresses insulation, and finds every weak point in the system. Aquashicola Roofing & Maintenance solves ponding with tapered insulation that creates positive drainage, minimum quarter-inch per foot slope to drains, scuppers, or roof edges.
Modified bitumen is our recommendation for residential flat roofs and high-traffic commercial applications. Two-ply torch-applied SBS system with a granulated cap sheet handles foot traffic, thermal cycling, and PA UV exposure. It's the toughest flat roof membrane for everyday abuse.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Free Evaluation
Our inspector checks every detail: ponding areas, seam separations, flashing failures, clogged drains, UV degradation, and blistering. Core samples test insulation moisture content. You get photos and an honest assessment.
Detailed Proposal
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.
Professional Installation
Flat roof installation requires specialized equipment and training. Our crew uses calibrated hot-air welders for TPO and PVC, torching equipment for modified bitumen, and proper adhesive systems for EPDM. Every seam, flashing, and penetration detail gets individual attention.
Completion & Warranty
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.
