Can Showalter help with drainage problems like ponding water?
Absolutely. We evaluate slope, scuppers, and existing drainage systems, and install tapered insulation or rework drainage to solve ponding issues.
What’s involved in a flat roof inspection from Showalter?
We walk the roof, check seams and flashings, use FLIR infrared scanning for moisture, and take core samples if needed to evaluate system condition.
Can Showalter replace an EPDM roof with TPO?
Yes. In fact, we do this often. Many older EPDM systems are replaced with TPO for better reflectivity, welded seams, and longer lifespan.
