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.

Prior to selecting Blue Mountain Roofing I interviewed four other companies. I decided to go with Blue Mountain because of the quality of their material, their price and a very positive referral I received from a friend who had recently used them. In addition, their years of experience in the business was a definite plus.Mike our main contact was always available to answer questions and provide updates.We had a 30 year tile roof and it was difficult matching old and new tiles but the crew did an exceptional job. One of my pet peeves is when a contractor leaves a site messy but these workers left the site immaculate after each days work. In addition their crew was very polite, was very knowledgeable, and kept us informed throughout the process.We are extremely pleased with the outcome and recommend Blue Mountain Roofing to anyone wanting quality professional workmanship
Response from the owner: We're delighted you're pleased! Our team is committed to quality, communication, and a spotless finish.
From start to finish, Blue Mountain Roofing exceeded every expectation. The experience began with the initial estimate, and Mike, our point of contact, was outstanding — professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout the entire process.The workmanship on our new tile roof is exceptional, but what truly set Blue Mountain Roofing apart was the professionalism of the crew. From early morning until dusk, the workers were respectful, hardworking, and extremely considerate of our property. They kept the job site clean and well maintained every single day, which made a major construction project far less disruptive than expected.It’s rare to find a company that delivers such high-quality craftsmanship while also demonstrating genuine pride, work ethic, and attention to detail. We are extremely happy with the final result and would highly recommend Blue Mountain Roofing to anyone looking for a roofing company they can trust.
Response from the owner: We're delighted you had such a positive experience! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate it.
We discovered that our new to us home had several issues on the roof that the inspector missed and the sellers did not report. We called Blue Mountain, because they had assisted us with our roof repair on a previous home, and done as our realtor said "An amazing job!". The owner Mike personally came out and went over every part of the roof, created a detailed estimate, including removing and re-mounting our 35 solar panels. The team came out and worked sunup to sundown until the job was done, including the electrician, Jason from Avra Valley Electric, coming out on Christmas eve to get the solar panels back online.I cannot recommend Mike and the team at Blue Mountain Roofing enough. They are an honest, family run team that communicates well and delivers on their promises.
Response from the owner: We appreciate your loyalty and are pleased to have resolved your roofing issues to your satisfaction.
Blue Mountain is the best! Monte was a great communicator and helped me navigate insurance stuff. They are professional and reliable.
Response from the owner: We're pleased to hear of your positive experience. We aim to provide professional and reliable service.
Just had Monty (sorry if I spelled wrong) here at my house. He was GREAT! Friendly, Honest, Personable. I had the company come because I noticed some tiles on my roof had shifted. No actual leaks (yet) but wanted to get a head of anything. Monty got on my roof and inspected. He moved the tiles back into place....no need to replace, and did not charge me for the visit! He did find I had some cracked tiles that I will be replacing eventually but don't need to do right away because they are cracked at places where the tiles still under-lays the tile on top, so no leaking. I will definitely be calling Blue Mounting Roofing for the job! MaryT
Response from the owner: We are delighted Monty provided such excellent service. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to assisting you further.
They recently repaired and recoated our roof. The service right from the start was excellent. The gentleman who inspected and quoted the price was so knowledgeable, friendly and professional and then the team that came to complete the work was just as amazing. They did the work quickly, neatly and again so professional. I highly recommend this company.
Response from the owner: We are pleased to hear of your satisfaction. Our team is committed to delivering excellent service and quality workmanship.
