Case Study: Transforming a Philadelphia Flat Roof

Project Overview: Ryanne of Philadelphia, reached out to BMG to restore her flat roof in her Philadelphia home. Her flat roof had undergone significant wear and tear over the years. The roof also featured para-pet walls that had deteriorated completely, presenting an additional challenge to the project.


Challenges:


  • Extensive Wear and Tear: The flat roof exhibited widespread damage, making it unsuitable for long-term use.

  • Deteriorated Para-pet Walls: These walls required significant attention and repair to ensure structural integrity.

  • Decking Damage Inspection: The removal of the old roof was necessary to assess the condition of the decking underneath.


Solution:


  1. Complete Roof Removal: The first step in the project involved the full removal of the existing roof. This allowed the BMG team to inspect the decking for any hidden damage that could compromise the integrity of the new roof system.

  2. Installation of a New Eaves Drain Box: A new eaves drain box was installed to improve water drainage and ensure the long-term functionality of the flat roof.

  3. Application of a Two-Ply Self-Adhered Roof System: BMG Exteriors utilized a CertainTeed two-ply self-adhered low-sloped roof system for the project. This high-quality roofing solution not only enhanced the durability and weather resistance of the structure but also came with a 12-year manufacturer’s warranty, providing peace of mind to Ryanne.

Results:

The completed project resulted in:

  • Enhanced Durability: The new CertainTeed roofing system ensures the flat roof can withstand harsh weather conditions for years to come.

  • Improved Drainage: The addition of a new eaves drain box effectively manages water flow, preventing potential water damage.

  • Structural Integrity: By addressing the deteriorated para-pet walls and inspecting the decking, the roof’s foundation was solidified, ensuring long-term stability.
