Flat and low-slope roofs need a completely different system than sloped roofs. Assured Supreme installs single-ply TPO, modified bitumen, and related membranes engineered to handle South Florida's heat, sun, and heavy rain.

Many South Florida homes and nearly all commercial buildings have flat or low-slope sections, and these cannot be roofed with tile, metal panels, or shingles. They require a waterproof membrane system designed to shed standing water and resist constant UV exposure.
Because water drains slowly on a low-slope roof, the membrane, seams, and drainage details have to be installed precisely. A small flaw that would never matter on a sloped roof can cause a leak on a flat one.
Flat-roof systems we install:
TPO has become the go-to single-ply membrane in our region because its reflective white surface bounces solar heat away, lowering cooling costs, and its heat-welded seams create a continuous waterproof barrier. For both homes with flat sections and commercial buildings, TPO offers an excellent balance of performance and value.
Whether you have a flat section over an addition, a modern flat-roof home, or a commercial building, we install the right membrane system for the application and back it with proper warranties and licensed workmanship.
TPO single-ply membrane is the most popular choice for its reflective energy savings and heat-welded watertight seams. Modified bitumen and EPDM also perform well depending on the application, which we assess during your free inspection.
Water drains slowly on a low-slope roof, so any flaw in the membrane, seams, or drainage can hold water and cause a leak. Precise installation and proper drainage are essential, which is why workmanship matters so much on flat roofs.
Yes. Many homes have flat sections over additions or porches. We install the correct membrane system for that section and tie it properly into the rest of the roof.
Lifespan depends on the system and installation quality, but a properly installed TPO or modified bitumen roof can last fifteen to twenty-five years or more in South Florida with maintenance.
Yes. We handle commercial and warehouse flat roofing in addition to residential flat sections. See our commercial roofing services for details.
