Commercial Roofing — Installation and Restoration
- TPO for a complete roofing system
- APOC coatings for roofing restoration and repairs
Commercial Roofing Installation — TPO
TPO gets it’s catchy name from thermoplastic polyolefin. Say that ten times. Kidding aside, it’s a terrific roofing material. In the roofing trade, we call it a “membrane.” But you can think of it as a thin layer of single-ply roofing material that performs impressively for commercial roofing. Here’s how …
Saves Energy — TPO is highly reflective of the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Less cooling is needed in the structure saving on utility bills.
Saves Money — TPO is lightweight, easy to handle, and requires less labor than other commercial roofing systems. Easy installation. Less maintenance.
Durability — TPO has a longer lifespan, sometimes exceeding 20 years with proper maintenance. TPO seams are heat-welded, creating a strong watertight bond, superior to other roofing materials. The material is highly resistant to punctures and tears. TPO withstands harsh weather conditions including high winds, hail, and extreme temperature changes.
Utility — TPO may be used on a variety of flat and low-sloped commercial roofs.
Easy on the Environment — TPO is a 100% recyclable material with low volatile organic compounds (VOC).
Appearance — TPO comes in many colors, to allow for style preferences.
Commercial Roofing Restoration and Repair — APOC Elastomeric Coatings
APOC elastomeric coatings are a liquid substance consisting of silicone or urethane, or acrylic. The benefits are numerous. Here’s why …
Protective — An APOC elastomeric coating is applied like paint and then solidifies into a durable, long lasting protective surface that resists weather damage and extreme temperature changes.
Reflexive — The finished APOC elastomeric surface is bright white, which is highly reflexive of the sun’s UV rays, which helps to keep the indoors cooler and to lower utility expenses.
Flexibility — The surface is elastomeric, flexible, and moves with the substrate as the roof expands and contracts with the weather without cracking or peeling.
Waterproof — The APOC elastomeric surface is seamless making it watertight to prevent leaks and water damage. Even under changing weather conditions, the surface will expand and contract to maintain the waterproof seal.
Durable — APOC elastomeric technology makes coatings that are durable, lasting 10 to 20 years. At the end of the warranty period, they can be refreshed with a new coating and thus last another 10 to 20 years, while activating a new warranty. This process can be repeated extending the life and sustainability of the roof.
Budget — The APOC elastomeric coating can be applied directly over an existing roof making it a cost-effective option.
Earth Friendly — Because an APOC elastomeric roof restoration lasts a long time, they lessen the need for replacement materials. There is less construction waste. The energy efficiency lower’s the building’s carbon footprint.
Upkeep — APOC elastomeric coatings rarely crack, blister, or peel. When a repair is needed, it’s usually easy and less costly.
