The climate of Upstate NY is not hospitable to flat roofs

By Alpine Roofing
5/6/13 - 11:19 am

The climate of Upstate NY is not hospitable to flat roofs. The heavy snow loads and constant freezing and thawing cycles can wreak havoc with flat or low slope roofs. For this reason, we at Alpine don’t do the cheaper “rolled roofing” which is fine in other climates. We just can’t guarantee it for any substantial amount of time. While there are many different systems to choose from, the one we generally like to use is EPDM (commonly referred to as a “rubber roof”). Alpine Roofing is an authorized and factory trained Versico Installer.
