A roof is much more than just the decorative top of a building. A roof provides protection from the elements and precipitation, helps drain water away from a structure, and provides insulation that helps keep the interior of a building warm or cool, depending on the season. There are several types of roofs, but the best one for your needs will depend on the structure, the climate, and the amount and type of precipitation you receive. Regardless of the type of roof you want to build, safety should always be a priority, as roofing work can be dangerous, and fall equipment should always be used.

In the past, low-quality insulation, inadequate materials and poor workmanship left flat roofs with a reputation for water pooling and substandard performance.

But today there are various modern systems available that make horizontal coverings a thermally efficient, versatile and attractive option that will protect your home in the long-term.
