If it’s time to replace your commercial roof, you may be wondering which type is best for your building. Below, we explain the three main types of commercial roofing we offer. When you need new roofing for your commercial building in Bergen County or throughout North Jersey, give the team at Top Roof a call.
Torch Down Roofing
A long-lasting and cost-effective alternative for flat-roofed or slightly-slanted buildings is torch down roofing. Using a torch, a layer of asphalt and resin mixture will be applied to the roof. By enclosing the rest of the building in an airtight barrier, this layer protects it from pests and severe weather. Torch down roofing often requires two or three layers to provide a proper seal. A base sheet forms the first layer, which is followed by one or two cap sheets.
TPO Roofing
TPO, which stands for Thermoplastic Polyolefin, is a single ply white membrane that reflects heat. TPO is a wonderful option if you have a flat roof or a low-slope roof over a bedroom because it will keep the space below cooler. When installed correctly, TPO roofing membrane can last for about 25 years.
PVC Roofing
PVC is made from polyvinyl chloride, better known as plastic. It is another single ply type of roofing that reflects heat. PVC is a durable material that can be efficiently rewelded in parts, making it easier to repair than other membranes. A PVC roof can last for around 30 years. The durability of PVC makes it a better investment than metal for some roofing projects despite its high initial cost.
