Widely used in commercial and industrial roofing projects, flat or low-slope roofs are so named for their minimal slope. These roofing systems offer excellent insulation options, create additional space, and can withstand all types of weather. One drawback is the increased risk of ponding water, due to the reduced angle. Commercial flat roofs require specialized knowledge and experience to manage properly.
Flat roof installation and service is one of our major service offerings at MG Roof Construction. We can help you install and maintain a leak-free commercial flat roof so your business operations can run smoothly. Our experience, coupled with professional installation techniques and the highest quality materials, creates an unbeatable choice for your next commercial flat roof project.
Roofing System Options
One of the most popular roofing system options for commercial flat roofs is the single-ply membrane. Available in different colors and materials, single-ply membranes offer advanced weather-proofing, durability, increased roof longevity and improved energy efficiency. Each type of membrane offers its own benefits, so a quick overview is appropriate.
PVC: Technically known as Polyvinyl Chloride, PVC is the most popular single-ply roofing membrane. This membrane is sturdy and fire resistant. It is also energy efficient, thanks to its highly reflective surface, thick insulation, and light colors.
TPO: The technical name is Thermoplastic Polyolefin. TPO is a durable roofing membrane that is designed to make your roof more efficient and help reduce your energy consumption. It is lightweight and reflective, which helps to reduce energy bills.
EPDM: The actual name is Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, but that is such a mouthful, EPDM is used industry-wide. EPDM is a single-ply synthetic rubber membrane that offers incredible strength, elasticity, and durability. This membrane is extremely versatile and can withstand extreme weather conditions. Primarily black, new cool roof demands have led to the availability of a white option.
