Extra Space

Flat roofs provide more space than traditional roofs, making them ideal for rooftop patios, terraces, solar panels, and other uses. You can add value to your property by creating extra outdoor space or installing solar panels to generate renewable energy.

Durability

Flat roofs are known for their durability and can last longer than traditional roofs. With proper maintenance and repairs, a flat roof can last up to 25 years.

Construction and Building Engineering of Flat Roofs

Flat roofs have revolutionized the construction and building engineering industry in recent years. Unlike pitched roofs where the slope of the roof is calculated to allow water to drain off, flat roofs are completely horizontal, making drainage more complex.

For a flat roof to function effectively, it needs to have proper drainage and be constructed with quality materials. A1 Roofing Reading uses the latest flat roof construction and building engineering technology to ensure that your flat roof has proper drainage and is built to last. We install EPDM rubber roofs, fiberglass roofs, and felt roofs, depending on your preference and budget.

Architecture and Civil Engineering of Flat Roofs

Flat roofs have significant architectural advantages that make them a suitable choice for modern buildings. They are sleek, simple, and uncluttered, providing a plain canvas for architectural innovation. They are also easily accessible, making maintenance and repairs less expensive than traditional roofs.

Civil engineering plays a crucial role in the design and construction of flat roofs. A1 Roofing Reading has a team of highly skilled and experienced civil engineers who will work with you to design a flat roof that fits your architectural vision and meets all the building regulations.
