Flat Roof to Pitch Roof Conversions

Flat roofs- used to be an economic way in days gone by of providing a quick and easy answer to a roofing solution. Usually, flatroofs are used when pitched roofs cannot be. What must be watched out for is water infiltration when it is not regularly maintained and routinely repaired for damages.
