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. Potter Roofing & Maintenance has been installing flat roofs in Potter for 24 years. We know what works and what doesn't in WI's climate.
Our Flat Roofing Process
Membrane Assessment
Before recommending repair, coating, or replacement, we inspect the entire flat roof system. Membrane condition, insulation integrity, and drainage patterns all factor into our recommendation.
System Recommendation
Your proposal includes membrane type, insulation R-value, drainage design, and warranty coverage. If multiple options make sense, we price all of them so you can compare and choose what fits your budget and goals.
Professional Installation
Our flat roof crew installs per manufacturer specifications and NRCA guidelines. TPO seams hot-air welded and probe-tested. Modified bitumen torch-applied in two plies. EPDM fully adhered with proper lap adhesive. Tapered insulation installed to create positive drainage.
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.

Why Choose Potter Roofing & Maintenance for Flat Roofing?
Manufacturer Warranties
15-20 year manufacturer warranties on new flat roof installations. Coating systems warrantied for 10-15 years. All backed by certified installation.
All Flat Roof Systems
TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, built-up roofing, and coatings. We install the right system for your building, not whatever we have on the truck.
Core Sampling & Testing
Before recommending replacement or coating, we core sample the roof to check insulation moisture. Waterlogged insulation means tear-off. Dry insulation means options.
Specialized Flat Roof Crew
Flat roofing requires different skills and equipment than sloped roofing. Our flat roof crew does this work every week, hot-air welders, torch kits, and adhesive systems are their daily tools.
About Our Potter Flat Roofing Services
Modified bitumen is our recommendation for residential flat roofs and high-traffic commercial applications. Two-ply torch-applied SBS system with a granulated cap sheet handles foot traffic, thermal cycling, and WI UV exposure. It's the toughest flat roof membrane for everyday abuse.
Every flat roof Potter Roofing & Maintenance installs includes proper drainage design. Tapered insulation, cricket saddles around rooftop equipment, and properly sized drains or scuppers ensure water moves off the roof, not into your building. Ponding water voids many manufacturer warranties. We eliminate it.
