Photo Album: Valley City, ND Commercial Roof Damage | EPDM Roof Repalcement
When a commercial property owner in Valley City, North Dakota, noticed their flat roof membrane peeling away and exposing the underlayment beneath, they knew it was time to call in a trusted professional. Vita Roofing responded with a thorough on-site inspection led by Aaron, with support from Austin, to assess the extent of the damage and deliver an honest, expert recommendation. The failing membrane had deteriorated to the point where the roof's structural integrity was at risk, making a full EPDM replacement the clear and responsible course of action.
After carefully evaluating the commercial property's existing roofing system, Vita Roofing's team recommended a fully adhered EPDM roofing system, one of the most reliable and long-lasting solutions available for flat commercial roofs. The scope of work included removing the existing layer of 2-inch foam insulation and replacing it with a new 2-inch ISO insulation board. From there, the team would install a fully adhered EPDM membrane, along with all new curbs, flashing, wall terminations, and penetration details, finished off with new cap metal. Any damaged decking discovered during the tear-off would be repaired as an additional line item to ensure the new system had a solid foundation.

Membrane seems are pulling away
Once the membrane is stretched to a certain point, it is well beyond repair. A new flat roof membrane and underlayment will need to be installed to fix the damaged flat roof.
Membrane is torn off
The underlayment is exposed, which will allow for moisture to find its way under and into the building's structure.
Termination Bar gives way
The membrane is detached and needs to be reattached. This is well past the point of repair. A new EPDM roofing membrane will be needed.
