This is the Palmetto page for flat & low-slope roofing. The short version: you want a quote for a flat or low-pitch section that shingle roofers keep declining, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteOlder neighborhoods carry historic-review questions on material and color; newer ones carry HOA approvals; the roofer should know which applies to your address. Decade built, number of previous roofs, and any additions all move the number here, which is why a quote starts with a short conversation about the home's history. Roof-to-wall attachment matters more here than anywhere; clips or straps added during a tear-off can move a home a full category on its wind mitigation report.
On cost: priced per square like any roof but with a wider spread; TPO and modified bitumen are the common systems, and a silicone coating over a sound existing membrane is the lowest-cost path when it qualifies.

How it works
Not every residential roofer. Ask specifically whether the crew installs low-slope membrane or subs it. The tie-in between the flat section and the pitched roof is where leaks start.
TPO is a heat-welded single-ply, white, and reflective — good in Florida and Texas heat. Modified bitumen is torch- or self-adhered asphalt, more forgiving on complex details. Both are fine when installed right.
