Sanford Roof Pros provides professional flat & low-slope roofing in Sanford, FL for residential and commercial properties across Seminole County and the north Orlando metro. On a low-slope roof the tallest thing is rarely the roof. It is the equipment: the packaged air conditioning unit, the exhaust fan housing, the condenser rails, the antenna. That is where a strike lands, and it is where our inspection starts.
Those units sit on curbs, and the curb is the weak point of the assembly whatever the weather does. We flash curbs with a target patch and a proper corner, we set a two-inch minimum height above the finished membrane, and we do not let a condensate line run flat across a field to a drain the way it is usually found. A two-inch curb is a specification, not a preference.
For membrane we specify 60-mil reinforced TPO mechanically attached over a high-density cover board on most Sanford commercial and residential low-slope work, or a two-ply SBS modified bitumen system where there is heavy foot traffic or a lot of small penetrations. Both survive this climate. What does not survive is a single-ply laid straight over old wet insulation because a recover was cheaper. Recovering over saturated insulation is the cheapest bid and the most expensive roof.
Rooftop metal on a low-slope roof deserves the same treatment as it does on a pitched one. Equipment housings, gas lines, rails and any structure carrying an electrical service should be bonded to the building's grounding system by an electrician, because an isolated metal box a foot above a membrane is a side-flash waiting to happen and the resulting hole is in the water barrier itself.
Drainage on these roofs is a design question, not a maintenance one. We survey with a level and a string line before quoting, and where the deck has deflected we add tapered polyisocyanurate crickets between drains rather than promising that a new membrane will change where water sits. Promising a flat roof will drain because the membrane is new is the oldest sales line in low-slope work, and it is not true.
Repairs get a moisture survey first. We core-cut where the scan is suspicious and show you the sample. Insulation that has taken water under a membrane will not dry in this climate, and every dollar spent on top of it is spent twice. The sample tells you what the roof is, and it costs less than a square of membrane. We would rather cut two cores and be wrong than skip them and be confident.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — fused strike entry point in a laminated shingle field, bonding of roof metal to the building grounding electrode system, NFPA 780 three-sixteenths-inch metal thickness threshold, detach and reset of a certified lightning protection system, 8d ring-shank roof deck re-nailing, high-temperature self-adhered tile underlayment over an eave riser — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Sanford and nearby communities including Lake Mary, Longwood, Winter Springs, Oviedo.

Materials, equipment and how we do flat & low-slope roofing
The difference between flat & low-slope roofing that lasts and flat & low-slope roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with fused strike entry point in a laminated shingle field, bonding of roof metal to the building grounding electrode system, NFPA 780 three-sixteenths-inch metal thickness threshold, detach and reset of a certified lightning protection system, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Sanford job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Seminole County and the north Orlando metro means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

- ✓We quote by dry film thickness, gauge, nail count and quantity, so two bids can be compared on something other than a total
- ✓We take powered attic fans off roofs more often than we install them, and explain exactly why
