Identify the existing roof
Tell us whether the covering is known and whether previous work was a repair, coating or replacement. Records help, but an inspection is still needed to assess the current condition.

Flat & Low-Slope Roofing
Plan the membrane, transitions and drainage together.
A flat-roof estimate should address the full assembly, not only the visible surface. Galaxy discusses the existing covering, roof condition and access before proposing repairs or replacement.
Account for every transition
Roof-to-wall connections, drains, edges and penetrations are part of the roof. Your scope should identify which details are being repaired or replaced.
Discuss suitable systems
Galaxy can discuss TPO and white granulated modified bitumen for appropriate projects. The recommendation depends on the existing assembly and the installation scope.
Questions, answered
Before you book.
Does a flat roof need drainage?
Yes. Discuss the existing outlets and any observed standing water during the inspection. Drainage details should be part of the proposed scope.
Can you just install over the existing roof?
That depends on the existing assembly and condition. The inspection and written scope should establish whether removal or other preparation is needed.
