Flat Roofs in Tucson and the Surrounding Areas

The term “flat roof” is somewhat of a misnomer, as they aren’t completely flat. All roofs need a slight slope to drain water. Flat roofs typically feature a low slope of one-fourth to one-half inch per foot. Commercial buildings commonly feature flat roofs, although some residential homes do as well. At Blue Mountain Roofing, our experienced team works on all types of flat roofs in the greater Tucson area. We specialize in the repair and replacement of rubberized roofing systems, spray polyurethane foam (SPF) roofing, and elastomeric roof coatings.

Rubberized Roofing Systems

Rubberized roofing systems are a type of membrane roofing, also known as a single-ply membrane. Rubber roofing consists of ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM). This is a synthetic rubber material that provides a waterproof barrier on top of the insulation boards installed on the roof. After installing the EPDM, our roofers seal the seams to prevent water leaks. Blue Mountain Roofing often recommends the EPDM system for flat roofs because it offers the following qualities:

Affordable:

EPDM is the flat roofing material of choice for many residential and commercial clients because it’s available at a relatively low price point compared to other roofing systems.

Eco-friendly:

EPDM is often manufactured from recycled materials. At the end of its lifespan, it is 100% recyclable.

Lightweight:

Because the rubber sheets are so lightweight, the roof won’t require any added reinforcement.

Energy-efficient:

Most EPDM roofs are black. However, in hot climates, we recommend white EPDM sheets that reflect the sunlight and help keep the building cool.

Fire-resistant:

It’s nearly impossible to ignite an EPDM membrane, and in fact, they can help inhibit the progression of a building fire.
In addition, EPDM is long-lasting. Most EPDM roofs will last about 20 to 35 years, although some repairs may be necessary from time to time. Our roofing company in Tucson provides prompt and affordable EPDM roof repairs.

Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) Roofing

Despite the name, spray polyurethane foam is actually applied as a liquid. It then expands into a protective foam. One of the reasons why Blue Mountain Roofing often recommends SPF is that it’s easily applied to all shapes of roofs, including those with irregular features that pose a risk of water leaks. The SPF material readily adheres to these irregular features, effectively preventing water damage to the building. Note that SPF cannot form a complete roof by itself; it must be applied to an existing roof. We recommend SPF for the following reasons:
  • Longevity : An SPF coating will protect your existing roof and may allow it to last for up to 50 years.
  • Versatility : We can apply spray polyurethane foam to all types of roofing materials, including shingles, metal, and concrete tiles.
  • Energy efficiency : SPF will help your building stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

Elastomeric Roof Coatings

To give your building extra protection from the elements, Blue Mountain Roofing recommends installing an elastomeric roof coating. This coating is applied as a liquid, much like paint, providing a seamless layer on top of an existing roof. Its main purpose is to protect buildings from roof leaks and, subsequently, water damage. However, an elastomeric roof coating will also add extra protection from strong winds and UV rays. The average lifespan of elastomeric coatings is 10 to 20 years. Blue Mountain Roofing specializes in commercial and residential flat roofing systems. Our experienced roofers provide both repairs and full roof replacements , with free estimates available.

I am SO happy with this company. I called 5 companies for quotes to redo our commercial roof at Tucson Rug Cleaning Co. a few years ago - not only was Blue Mountain the least expensive option, but their warranty service has been absolutely EXCEPTIONAL. When the technician, Devonte, couldn't identify the source of the leak, he gave me a cell phone number and told me to reach out directly to him when it pops up again. Low and behold, it did yesterday. I texted him this morning... he came by SAME DAY to take a look. He determined it was not their roof at all, and it was actually a bad window caulking at the roof line - he took the time to caulk it for me (!!) and recommended that I redo the caulking on the other clerestory windows as well. Such a nice guy and great experience with this company so far. I will call them for my other properties in the future!
Response from the owner: I love hearing these stories Hannah! DeVonte is part of the family and represents our approach in the service industry. We are a locally owned family business that cares, and these reviews really help to spread the word of mouth!Thanks again!
I had a great experience with Blue Mountain Roofing. We had about 30 roof tiles that had shifted out of place, and they came out promptly and put every one of them back where it belonged. To my surprise, they didn’t charge us anything for the repair.It’s refreshing to find a company that is honest, professional, and genuinely cares about its customers. Monty was friendly, efficient, and did excellent work. I highly recommend Blue Mountain Roofing to anyone looking for trustworthy roofing service!
Response from the owner: Thank you very much for passing this on William! We are a local family business and we truly do care about people. Thanks again!
I found myself in a stressful situation with a roof leak just as I was leaving town. Mike, the owner, personally came out to inspect my roof over a holiday weekend, took the time to call me and explain what he was seeing, and came up with a practical solution.When you’re dealing with something as stressful as a roof leak, it means a lot to work with people who are responsive, communicate clearly, and genuinely care about giving homeowners peace of mind. I’m very grateful for the way Blue Mountain handled the situation.
Response from the owner: Thanks you Andy. Looking forward to getting it all squared away for you.
Mike is a very personable man, quick to respond to my concerns. His crew was professional and completed the job quickly. I would highly recommend this company for your roofing needs.
Response from the owner: Thank you Ann! It was a pleasure to work with you!
Mike responded quickly and his crew completed the work in a timely manner. Price was reasonable. Made suggestions to help save money. Would absolutely recommend Blue Mountain Roofing
Response from the owner: Thank you Jeannie! You all were great to work with!
I highly recommend Blue Mountain Roofing, Excellent Company!! Monti came out gave me a quote and worked with my schedule and came after hours. I had a new roof within 3 days for our first meeting. Roof done in one day and you couldn't even tell they were there. After completion I discovered the exhaust fan wasn't working, I called Monte and returned the next moring (again accomadating my schedule). The fan probably as old as my home so wasn't really a big deal and I told him that. He insisted he would fix it He made another trip and fixes. Monte goes above and beyond for his customer's . Five Stars for customer service as well as final product.
Response from the owner: Thanks Echo! We really do try to make our customers happy so we appreciate this detailed review!Thanks again!
