Roofing guide
Torch-on roofing is commonly used on suitable flat & low-slope applications. Performance depends on the full assembly & the details that manage water.
A membrane roof still needs positive drainage, suitable drains or edges & attention to low areas.
The surface below the membrane must support adhesion, detailing & long-term performance. Concealed deck damage may change the scope.
Most risk is concentrated where the membrane changes direction or meets another component.
