We tear off down to sound decking, replace rotted boards, add tapered insulation where it will move water to the scupper, and install EPDM, modified bitumen or TPO membrane with new base and counterflashing at the parapets, new coping or coping flashing, new scupper flashing and new curbs and flashing at hatches, skylights, vents and chimneys. Parapet repairs can be done as part of the project.
Logistics in Union City take real planning: street parking, dumpster or truck placement, hoisting materials and debris, protecting neighbors' roofs on both sides and notifying residents. We go over all of it at the free estimate. Permits are often required for full replacements, and we can advise on what typically applies.
When replacement is the right call in Union City
For most Union City multifamily roofs, EPDM or modified bitumen is a proven choice; TPO is worth considering where summer heat on the top floor is a concern. We will show you how each option handles your parapets, coping, scuppers and penetrations. Permits are often required for full replacements; we can advise on what typically applies.
Plan resident notification, parking and placement for a dumpster or truck well in advance; street placement in Union City usually requires municipal arrangements. We provide a realistic schedule and leave the roof watertight at the end of each day.
