Flat roofing is what separates experienced contractors from general roofers. The materials are different, the installation methods are different, and the failure points are different. Olympia Fields Roofing & Maintenance has been installing flat roofs in Olympia Fields for 20 years. We know what works and what doesn't in IL's climate.
PVC membrane is the only flat roofing material that resists animal fats and chemical exposure from rooftop grease exhaust. If you own a restaurant or commercial kitchen in Olympia Fields, PVC is the right choice. TPO and EPDM will deteriorate when exposed to kitchen grease venting.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Membrane Assessment
Our inspector checks every detail: ponding areas, seam separations, flashing failures, clogged drains, UV degradation, and blistering. Core samples test insulation moisture content. You get photos and an honest assessment.
Your Options
We present options, not ultimatums. If a repair extends your flat roof 5-10 years, that might be the smartest investment right now. If the insulation is waterlogged and the membrane is failing, replacement is the answer. We lay out the facts.
Expert Flat Roof Crew
Insulation board cut and installed with staggered joints. Membrane installed over insulation per manufacturer specs. All penetrations (pipes, vents, HVAC curbs) receive custom-fabricated flashing. Drains and scuppers cleared and properly connected to the new membrane system.
Final Inspection
After installation, we verify drainage by checking water flow to all drain points. No ponding. Every seam tested. Manufacturer warranty registered, 15-20 year coverage depending on system and build-up.
