Residential Flat & Low-Slope Roofing
Torch-applied and single-ply membrane roofing for additions, garages and porches, with drainage and detailing treated as seriously as the membrane itself.
What is residential flat roofing?
Flat and low-slope sections show up on most homes somewhere — additions, garages, porches and dormers commonly use a membrane roof rather than shingles. Pro.Found installs torch-applied SBS modified bitumen and single-ply membrane systems for these residential low-slope areas.
As with any flat roof, the membrane is only part of the system. Drainage and substrate condition matter just as much, and detailing around walls, curbs and penetrations is where most flat-roof leaks actually start.
Why choose this system
- Torch-applied SBS modified bitumen and single-ply membrane options
- Correct drainage and substrate preparation before the membrane goes down
- Careful detailing at walls, curbs and penetrations
- Suited to additions, garages, porches and dormers
- Backed by Pro.Found's 20-year residential workmanship warranty

Roof / site assessment
We look at the existing roof, deck condition and any problem areas before recommending a system.

- 06
Flashing & detail work

View All ProjectsCommon questions
Where is flat roofing used on a house?
Most commonly on additions, garages, porches and dormers — sections of a roof too low-slope for shingles.
Can a residential flat roof be repaired?
Yes, localized membrane repairs are common. Whether a repair or a section replacement makes sense depends on the roof's condition.
Why does drainage matter on a flat roof?
Flat roofs still need to move water toward a drain, scupper or edge. Persistent ponding water stresses the membrane over time.
What warranty does Pro.Found provide?
Residential roof replacements carry a 20-year Pro.Found workmanship warranty. Manufacturer product warranties vary by system and are explained during your estimate.
