What are the Different Types of Flat Roof and Which is Best?

Different types of flat roofing will suit different purposes – as with any kind of roofing where there will be various materials that could work, but one will be superior for whatever reason it might be. These are some of the different kinds of flat roofing and the purposes they can serve:

• Structural deck. This needs to be very strong and in some commercial settings, concrete might even be used.
• Asphalt. This is a traditional flat roofing material and has many years of successful usage behind it. It will have different layers and can usually be repaired, but it may also need more maintenance.
• RBMs. This stands for reinforced bitumen membranes and is another type of layered flat roofing.
• GRP. This stands for glass reinforced plastic and it is a very strong, durable material. It can take the weight of a person and can even last for around 40 years or more.
