FLAT ROOF

A Flat Roof is Both Visually and Functionally Appealing for Homeowners and Businesses

Flat Roofing Contractor — Commercial Building Flat Roof in Miami, FL
Gold Star Roofing & Construction provides flat roof installation and repair services in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in Florida. Flat roofs tend to be popular in Florida coastal living. For homeowners or businesses that have balconies or patios, a flat roof may be beneficial, for visual and functional appeal. With the material that covers a flat roof, wind resistance is less critical, and the material tends to have little impact from salt spray. The main concern from Florida building code is that any structures or vents that may reside on the flat roof must be properly fastened and sealed.

Adequate Roof Protection is a Must for Florida Coastal Living

In the continental U.S., Florida tops the list of states with the longest coastline, at 1,350 miles. This allows for beautiful Florida coastal living in areas like Miami-Dade and Broward county. However, during hurricane season, or even during heavy storms or high winds, the ferocity can be hazardous to your home, including your roof.
For this reason, Florida has instated building codes, particularly to High Velocity Hurricane Zones (HVHZs), namely Miami-Dade and Broward Counties. The laws governing construction of roofs are thorough and highly specific, to ensure standard materials are used and implemented to withstand the intense pressure found in an HVHZ.
