Flat roofs are standard on NYC row houses, multi-family buildings and commercial properties. They need the right materials and careful detailing to handle ponding water and seasonal temperature swings. Homex Builders installs and repairs flat roofs across the Bronx, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Yonkers, Long Island and New Jersey.
We install modified bitumen, EPDM and TPO systems, apply reflective coatings, and repair existing flat roofs. Proper slope, drains and flashing at parapets and bulkheads are built into every job.
What Our Flat Roofing Includes

New Flat Roofs
Modified bitumen, EPDM and TPO systems installed over a properly prepared deck.
Repairs & Patching

Ponding water is the number one enemy of flat roofs. We design slope and drainage so water leaves the roof quickly.

Why Choose Homex Builders
Frequently Asked Questions
Modified bitumen, EPDM and TPO are all reliable. The best choice depends on your building, budget and how the roof is used.
Typically 15 to 25 years or more, depending on materials, installation quality and maintenance.
Ponding is caused by poor slope, clogged drains or a sagging deck. We can correct it with tapered insulation and drain improvements.
Pricing depends on the size of the area, the condition of existing materials, access and the materials you choose. We provide a free on-site estimate with a clear scope and price before any work begins.
Roof replacement and new roof installation in NYC generally require a DOB permit, while minor repairs usually do not. We help determine and file what is needed.
