How To Replace A Flat Roof
Is it high time you replaced your flat roof with a new one? If it’s time, then you probably shouldn’t waste another minute! Flat roofs come with multiple upsides and happens to be a lot more affordable than many other options (especially for starters). Not only do they add to your home’s curb appeal and requires a relatively low labour costs as there are minimal risks involved, but they’re also more accessible for maintenance purposes and aren’t as exposed to damage as a pitched roof. However, we’re not here to discuss the various benefits of installing a flat roof, but rather tell you how to install one. If you lack proper training and experience, we’d recommend you hire a trustworthy professional that can guarantee the best results.
• Wipe the entire roof system clean.
• Detach and replace rotted roof sheathings.
• Detach and replace rotted fascia
• Hire a qualified air conditioning professional to disconnect the existing AC units.
• Introduce new aluminium air conditioning stands and secure against the deck.
• Let you qualified air conditioning professional reconnect the existing AC units.
• Put in place the new air conditioning quick disconnects.
• Attach EPS fanfold insulation in such a way to cover the surface of the entire roof and secure it firmly in place.
• Attach the tie-in roof materials where necessary.
• Attach roofing membrane to cover the entire area of the roofing.
• Attach membrane to the entire roof’s perimeter.
• Attach new perimeter flashings (fascia bar, fascia cap and drip edge), secured on the centre at 6. Make use of a good sealant to secure the fascia bar or fascia cap’s top flange.
• Attach boots on plumbing seal and stacks.
• Identify the existing vent stacks and seal, and put curbs
• Put safety walk pad network from the access point of the roof to the air conditioning units.
• Attach rooftop signs for roof traffic personnel
• Tidy up and clear out the debris
If your existing roof is still in good condition but the membrane is getting old, it’s often not worth exposing the structure to the weather whilst the contractor strips off the old membranes. The contractor will leave them in place to act as a base layer for a new roofing system. As long as there are no other problems with your roof, then overlaying is a good way to replace your flat roof.If you have any more questions about flat roofing that aren’t listed here, fill out our form to ask a contractor.
How To Replace Flat Roof Fascia
Whatever makes you decide to install your flat roof fascia by yourself and not a professional company, then you must have a clear idea of what to do and do it appropriately. If you lack proper training and experience, we’d recommend you employ a reliable professional to help with the task for the best results and save you some time and money. This step-by-step guide will give a clear insight on how to go about the replacement of your flat roof fascia.
The tools to be incorporated includes the fascia boards, table saw, plane, crimper, clamps, power nailer, compound saw and chalkline.
• Prepare and get all the necessary tools to complete the task before commencing as this would save you time from stopping and going back and forth looking for the next tool needed,
• Install the sheathing and board.
• Fix white fascias with at least 600mm centres ( a foiled fascia needs just 40mm centre) using a marine grade stainless steel plastic headed nails.
• Make a space of up to 10mm between the joints for possible building expansion, using super glue to secure the joints to just a side of the fascia.
• Place this directly on the fascia board’s top (if you’ll be installing ventilation) to create an air pathway.
• Take note that the type of roof to be installed will determine how you’ll have to install the fascia board. For instance, a hip roof permits you to attach the fascia board onto the roof in a quick fashion, whereas a gabled roof may need you to make markings on the board to achieve the right fit.
• Consider the depth of the fascia board as it also play a huge role in the installation of the fascia board. For instance, there’ll be additional weights on tiled roofs that will push up against the board. Therefore, if you do not get the appropriate amount of depth, it could eventually collapse.
You should inspect your roof twice a year, ideally after rain or snow, to see if it’s draining properly. Also in the Spring to check for damage that may of been caused over the winter months that will need to be put right before the next winter. Have an inspection carried out if you are unsure.
