Low slope roofing materials are made for flat roofs, most commonly used in commercial settings. A low slope roof requires more maintenance since it is prone to hold humidity due to precipitations, this is why flat roofs perform better in warm and desert-like climates where the buildings are not exposed to extreme weather conditions.
Low slopes are prone to puddle-up this is why a good contractor, insulation, and appropriate drainage come into play in their design. Regardless of the best ingredients, flat roofs require regular maintenance and check-ups to ensure the roof is in optimal conditions.

Low slope roofing materials also include walkable materials, these are not only found in commercial settings but in residential buildings too, making them the best product for a deck or balcony exposed to climatic events.

A flat roof must be built to withstand all weather changes, freezing, UV radiation, expansion, and contraction, and be insulated properly so that humidity and water puddles don’t leak into the structure, providing a water-tight seal.
