Why Single-Ply Membranes Are Becoming One Of The Most Common Types Of Commercial Roofs

Construction & Contractors Blog

There are many types of commercial roofs you can have installed on your building, but one of the most common types of roofs installed is the single-ply membrane. These are replacing other types of flat roofs because they are simple and easy to install. Therefore, if you hire a commercial roofing installation service, you can have your single-ply roof installed more quickly than you might expect.

Affordable and Easy to Maintain

When your roof is simple and easy to install, you will save money because there will be lower installation costs. This type of roof can also save you money because it is simple and easy to maintain and repair. When it is properly maintained, the commercial roof will last much longer than other types of roofing materials.

This type of roof is very resistant to strong storms. It is also less damaged by UV rays than other types of flat roofs. Because it's a flat roof, you can easily access the roof to make any repairs that are necessary. The single-ply roofing material that you remove to replace can be recycled.

Compatible with Green Roofs

If you decide that you would like to convert your commercial roof into a green roof installation, it will be much easier to do this with a single-ply membrane.  A green roof is a type of roof that has a waterproof layer and can have vegetation installed on top of it.

These types of roofs are considered to be more attractive and are better for the environment. If you are considering having a green roof installed, make sure to consult with a commercial roofing installation specialist who has experience with these types of roofs.

Flexible and Convenient

The space can be used to store HVAC equipment or other types of equipment that can be kept outside. It is a flexible type of roofing system that can be used on buildings with a variety of shapes and sizes. The best way to make sure that your single-play roof meets the needs of your business is to consult with a commercial roof installation specialist.

Types of Single-Ply Roofs Available

The types of single-ply roofs you can install are EPDM, TPO, and PVC. A commercial roofing installation specialist can help you determine which type of single-ply roof would be the best based on the type of weather conditions the roof is subjected to and the resistance that the roof has to different substances such as chemicals, acids, and oils.
