Flat roofing is what separates experienced contractors from general roofers. The materials are different, the installation methods are different, and the failure points are different. West Branch Roofing & Maintenance has been installing flat roofs in West Branch for 21 years. We know what works and what doesn't in IA's climate.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Flat Roof Inspection
Our inspector checks every detail: ponding areas, seam separations, flashing failures, clogged drains, UV degradation, and blistering. Core samples test insulation moisture content. You get photos and an honest assessment.
Detailed Proposal
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.
Membrane Installation
Our flat roof crew installs per manufacturer specifications and NRCA guidelines. TPO seams hot-air welded and probe-tested. Modified bitumen torch-applied in two plies. EPDM fully adhered with proper lap adhesive. Tapered insulation installed to create positive drainage.
Final Inspection
After installation, we verify drainage by checking water flow to all drain points. No ponding. Every seam tested. Manufacturer warranty registered, 15-20 year coverage depending on system and build-up.

About Our West Branch Flat Roofing Services
PVC membrane is the only flat roofing material that resists animal fats and chemical exposure from rooftop grease exhaust. If you own a restaurant or commercial kitchen in West Branch, PVC is the right choice. TPO and EPDM will deteriorate when exposed to kitchen grease venting.
Every flat roof West Branch Roofing & Maintenance installs includes proper drainage design. Tapered insulation, cricket saddles around rooftop equipment, and properly sized drains or scuppers ensure water moves off the roof, not into your building. Ponding water voids many manufacturer warranties. We eliminate it.
