Olympia Roof Pros provides professional flat & low-slope roofing in Olympia, WA for residential and commercial properties across Thurston County and the south Sound. This is the work this market does best, and the reason is the buildings around us rather than the houses. Public and institutional roof area in Thurston County is overwhelmingly low-slope membrane, so the welders, the equipment and the tapered layout skill are all here year round.
The consequence for a homeowner is unusual and worth taking advantage of. When your house has a flat porch, a shed addition, a garage link or a whole mid-century low-slope roof, you can buy the commercial assembly here at a sensible price instead of the residential compromise most markets default to on an area that small. Small low-slope sections are where residential roofing is weakest almost everywhere.
That means we will not quote you rolled asphalt or a torch-applied cap over an unprepared deck on a four-square porch. We spec what we would spec on a public building: a proper cover board, mechanically attached or fully adhered sixty or eighty mil membrane, hot-air-welded seams probed by hand, and tested perimeter edge metal rather than a hemmed piece of coil stock nailed at the fascia.
Drainage gets designed with tapered polyisocyanurate laid to a real fall toward the drain points, plus crickets behind anything wide enough to dam water. Adding slope with insulation costs more on the estimate than a flat layup and less over the life of the roof, and on a residential low-slope section it is frequently the difference between fifteen years and thirty. Water finds the flat spot every time.
Before we quote any recover we survey. Core cuts are taken where the meter readings disagree, the wet area is outlined on the plan and reported to you as a percentage of the field, and if too much of the insulation is saturated we will tell you the recover is not available and price a tear-off instead. That answer costs one afternoon and saves you from buying the same roof twice.
Membrane choice is a real decision and we will make the case rather than announce it. Thermoplastic sheet welds cleanly and takes foot traffic well, EPDM handles complicated geometry and cold weather installation better, and two-ply modified bitumen still earns its place where hot work has to stay away from an occupied wall. We will make that case with the roof plan in front of us rather than from a brochure.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — quarter-inch-per-foot tapered polyisocyanurate cut to a drain-point layout, edge metal carrying an ANSI/SPRI ES-1 test rating with fastening to match, hot-air-welded thermoplastic seams probed by hand with a dull hook, two-inch core cuts patched and logged against a numbered roof plan, 24-gauge Kynar 500 standing seam on floating expansion clips, six-nail fastening set inside the manufacturer's published nail zone — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Olympia and nearby communities including Lacey, Tumwater, Yelm, Tenino.

Materials, equipment and how we do flat & low-slope roofing
The difference between flat & low-slope roofing that lasts and flat & low-slope roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with quarter-inch-per-foot tapered polyisocyanurate cut to a drain-point layout, edge metal carrying an ANSI/SPRI ES-1 test rating with fastening to match, hot-air-welded thermoplastic seams probed by hand with a dull hook, two-inch core cuts patched and logged against a numbered roof plan, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Olympia job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Thurston County and the south Sound means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Olympia Chooses Olympia Roof Pros
- ✓We quote your summer date and your November date side by side, because in a capital city the dry weeks are sold against a public bid calendar and the gap between those two prices is real money you should get to decide about.
- ✓Every scope carries unit prices for sheathing, blocking, fascia and flashing before the tear-off starts, the way a public change order has to be written, so nothing on your job gets renegotiated from the top of a ladder.
- ✓We will tell you that nobody owes you prevailing wage on a private house. If a bid quotes the published Thurston County rate at you as a justification, that is a public works number being used as a sales line.
- ✓We do not install new concrete or clay tile in this market. The bench that can flash and maintain it properly is thin here, and we would sooner turn the work down than leave you with a roof nobody local will service.
