Absolute Home Improvements completed this flat roof, railing system, and storm door upgrade on a residential porch in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The project focused on correcting roofing issues, restoring structural integrity, and upgrading safety and accessibility features.
The project began with the removal of the existing metal roofing and outdated railing system. Once exposed, damaged decking was identified and repaired to ensure a solid structural base. After repairs were completed, 1/2-inch fiberboard was installed to create a smooth, stable substrate for the new roofing system. A .60 mil EPDM rubber roofing membrane was then installed, providing durable, watertight protection designed specifically for flat and low-slope roof applications.
To complete the porch upgrade, a pressure-treated T-Rail railing system was installed, delivering improved safety, durability, and a clean finished appearance. The project was wrapped up with the installation of a Larson ¾-view storm door, adding ventilation, protection, and enhanced curb appeal. All work was completed efficiently, resulting in a refreshed, weather-resistant porch for this South Milwaukee home.
South Milwaukee homes frequently feature flat or low-slope porch roofs that require specialized roofing systems to handle rain, snow, and freeze-thaw cycles. Proper EPDM roofing installation, combined with secure railing systems and quality storm doors, is essential for long-term safety and performance.
