THREE MAIN TYPES OF COMMERICAL ROOFING SYSTEMS

BY: T-TOWN ROOFING

1. Single-Ply Roofing:

This is made of a variety of plastics and rubbers such as ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), thermoplastic olefin/polyolefin (TPO), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

1. Single-Ply Roofing:

These are single-layer applications of roofing sheets bonded along the seams with a heat or adhesive.

1. Single-Ply Roofing:

Single-ply systems are ideal for areas that are exposed to direct sunlight.

2. Built-Up:

Built-up systems offer layers of reinforcements, because of the way the layers are sandwiched together.

2. Built-Up:

Built-up roofing is made of multiple layers of felt and molten asphalt, and often covered with roll-roofing cap-sheet.

3. Modified Bitumen:

This type is comprised of a felt based sheet that is covered with a modified bitumen cap sheet, which is made of reinforcement coated asphalt combined with plastic or rubber to strengthen the bitumen and make it tear-resistant.

3. Modified Bitumen:

The modified bitumen is covered with an aluminum-rich paint or granules for enhanced sun protection.
