Flat Roof with Too Few Vents? Here's Why It's a Problem for Your Chicago Home

A flat roof with no or insufficient breather vents can lead to moisture buildup, trapped heat, and condensation, causing damage to the roofing material and accelerating wear. Without proper ventilation, the risk of mold growth, leaks, and premature roof failure increases significantly. Ventilation is essential to extend the life of your flat roof and maintain a healthy environment underneath.

At Anchor Point Roofing, we offer expert roof repair services in Chicago. Our team will remove the existing membrane, cut holes in the plywood, and install new breather vents spaced evenly across the roof. We’ll also install a new modified bitumen membrane around the vents and finish with a protective Lucas 6000 coating to ensure long-lasting durability.
