Flat Roof Installation & Membrane Options in Upstate SC
Upstate SC

Flat and low-slope roofs are different animals. Picking the right membrane is the most important decision you will make for the building.

TPO

White single-ply membrane with excellent reflectivity. Very popular for new commercial construction. 20-30 year service life when properly installed.

EPDM

Black rubber single-ply membrane. Decades of proven performance, especially in larger commercial applications.

Modified bitumen

Asphalt-based membrane available in torch-applied or self-adhered formats. Strong choice for re-roofing over existing built-up systems.

Repair vs replace

Most flat roof failures are at penetrations or seams and are repairable. A full replacement is usually warranted when more than 25% of the membrane shows failure or saturation.

"We had a leaky roof. After a lengthy online search for a reliable roofer in the Spartanburg area, we found Consumer First Roofing. James answered our call and set up an appointment that day. The quote was very reasonable and his crew completed the job in one long day. The new roof is beautiful."
