How to Deal with Flat Roof Repairs
If you want a quick lesson to get you up to speed on the topic,, flat roofs are more susceptible to leaks because of the force of gravity caused by their low pitch. Quite simply,, the pitch of a roof affects the force of gravity because of its horizontal or vertical axis.
When a roof is more horizontal than it is vertical (a.k.a. “Flatter”) the force of gravity instead of pulling the water down off of your roof tries to pull the water through the roof so it sits on the roof longer and with more force… And that causes more leaks.
