The second floor of my two story house has a small terrace, which is also the roof of the first floor below.

What kind of tradesman would do this job? A roofer? A carpenter first then a roofer? Waterproofing company?
Any suggestions, referrals, and commiserating appreciated.

I’ve used handymen types to do the same thing on my small balcony few years ago. had to put in new underlayment and some kind of roofing material + tar. No structural work. Took a day.
I wish I could have edited to correct this error, but brownstoner.com likes us to live with our mistakes.
But seriously, whose job would this be?
Who’s Job? A biblical figure!
