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. Rockaway Roofing Pros solves ponding with tapered insulation that creates positive drainage, minimum quarter-inch per foot slope to drains, scuppers, or roof edges.
EPDM (rubber roofing) has a 50-year track record as a proven flat roofing membrane. Fully adhered EPDM over polyiso insulation is a reliable, cost-effective choice for Rockaway property owners who want proven performance without the premium price of TPO or PVC.
Call (973) 636-4945 for a free flat roof assessment. We inspect the membrane, seams, flashings, drains, and overall condition. Core samples check the insulation for moisture. You get an honest recommendation and a written estimate.
Our Flat Roofing Process

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.
