Zero - other than the usual removal of leaves etc and checking guttering
or any other drainage. If it's well constructed, budget for felt
replacement about every 20 years. If it's done before it's needed it's
cheaper than leaving it until it leaks.

We live in what is probably an equally wet but at times colder? climate next
to the North Atlantic.
Everyone, including 'architected' commercial let alone residences buildings
seem to have trouble here with flat roofs.
As aresult there are hardly any houses with flat roofs. In fact there are at
least two homes in this community where new owners have replaced with
conventional sloped ones.
Personally I would avoid. Terry.
