Flat Roof Garages
from: Maxx Home GuidesIf your garage is getting old or perhaps you've about to build a new one, a major consideration is the quality and the type of roof for your garage. If your garage room isn't up to the proper building standards, you could encounter problems with a home inspector. Therefore, it's critical that you ensure your garage roof is stable and reliable and able to handle any type of weather conditions, including heavey rainfall.
If you roof is a flat roof with sagged joists, it will allow rainwater to pool at the center, rather than draining toward the edges of the roof. This is a common and ongoing problem that affects most so-called flat roofs. Roofs with insufficient slope create standing pools of rainwater, which increases the likelihood of leakage as the roof gets older.
You should therefore install roof drains at each low point of the roof. If the roof joists have sagged, it obvious they weren't designed to support accumulated water. Therefore you're going to have to add some drains at the lower points of the roof in order to prolong the life of your roof.
