West Jordan Roof Pros provides professional flat & low-slope roofing in West Jordan, UT for residential and commercial properties across the Salt Lake Valley. Low-slope roofs in this valley fail on standing water, and the reason is evaporation rather than rainfall. A puddle that would clear in a day somewhere hot and dry can sit for six weeks here between November and March, because nothing up there gets warm enough to move it.
Six weeks of standing water finds every seam that was under-welded on the day. It doubles the load over one bay. It freezes and thaws in place and works the sheet at the edge of the pond. And it turns a pinhole that would have been a nuisance into a saturated insulation field that nobody can see from the surface. Wet insulation also loses most of its R-value.
So drainage is the specification here, not an afterthought. A minimum fall of one quarter inch in twelve, run to a drain or to a scupper, built with tapered insulation where the framing gives you none. Crickets between drains. Baskets kept clear, because grit and leaf mat from the shaded months block them in exactly the season they are needed. We would rather rebuild fall once than chase a puddle with sealant for five years.
Before anyone quotes a recover, the insulation gets tested. Core cuts at the low points and at every suspicious seam, or an infrared survey on a clear evening after a sunny day. Laying new membrane over wet insulation is the most expensive mistake available on this kind of roof, and it is made constantly and cheerfully. Cores are patched the same day, with each location marked on a roof plan.
For coverings we install sixty and eighty mil TPO and EPDM and two-ply modified bitumen, chosen by the deck and the traffic it takes. On residential low-slope work, which here means porch roofs, additions and the flat section behind a parapet, a fully adhered single ply over a half-inch cover board handles both the ponding and the footfall. Cover board goes under the membrane wherever the roof takes foot traffic.
The place these roofs actually leak is the tie-in to the pitched roof above them. Where a shingle course laps onto a membrane you need a metal transition piece let into the field, and no amount of sealant substitutes for it. If your stain shows on a porch ceiling, that detail is the first thing we open and usually the only thing needing work.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — vapor-permeable synthetic underlayment, self-adhered eave and valley membrane, ring-shank sheathing nails at six inches on center, copper-bearing algae-resistant granules, polymer-modified asphalt shingle mat, 24-gauge standing-seam steel over a drainage mat — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve West Jordan and nearby communities including Taylorsville, Murray, Midvale, South Salt Lake.

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 vapor-permeable synthetic underlayment, self-adhered eave and valley membrane, ring-shank sheathing nails at six inches on center, copper-bearing algae-resistant granules, 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 West Jordan 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 the Salt Lake Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why West Jordan Chooses West Jordan Roof Pros
- ✓We meter the roof sheathing from the attic before quoting, and those readings go into the estimate
- ✓Eave courses are probed by hand, because the bottom four feet is where valley roofs fail first
- ✓Vapor-permeable underlayment across the field, so a damp deck can still dry upward through the assembly
- ✓Ceiling-plane air sealing is quoted before extra roof vents, because it fixes more attics for less money
