Damaged Flat Roof? ARC ROOFING & HOME IMPROVEMENT Delivers a Long-Lasting Solution in Garfield Heights
Flat roofs are common in Garfield Heights—but they’re also prone to leaks, ponding water, and premature aging. This week, ARC ROOFING & HOME IMPROVEMENT completed a full flat roof replacement on a local home using an advanced Owens Corning self-adhered modified rubber membrane system designed for superior performance and low maintenance.
The existing roof had multiple layers of deteriorated material, soft decking, and visible water damage. The homeowner, James, contacted us after years of patchwork repairs from other contractors didn’t hold up.
Our Flat Roof Inspection Process
During our inspection, we identified:
- Saturated Insulation
- Buckling Seams from the Previous Material
- Inadequate Drainage
- Cracks in the Old Modified Bitumen System
After walking the customer through photos and a full-scope breakdown, we recommended a complete tear-off and installation of a self-adhered modified rubber membrane by Owens Corning—built for flat-roof longevity in Ohio’s tough climate.
Flat Roof Installation Details
Scope of Work:
- Full Tear-Off of Old Membrane and Insulation
- Re-Sheeted with New Flat Roof Decking
- Installed Owens Corning DeckSeal™ Base and Cap Self-Adhered Membrane
- Heat-Welded Seams for Leak Resistance
- Integrated Drip Edges, Scuppers, and Proper Slope for Drainage
- Clean, Professional Finish with 10-Year Labor Warranty
The result: a watertight, energy-efficient, and maintenance-friendly system that will last for decades.
From the Homeowner:
“I’ve dealt with flat roof leaks for years, and no one ever fixed it right. ARC tore it all out, showed me the new system, and now I finally have peace of mind. Water runs off properly, and it looks great too.”
