Offices, schools, factories, warehouses, retail businesses, and other commercial properties typically have flat roofs. Whether your project involves a flat roof or a roof that’s sloped, Excel Roof Systems has the crews to repair or replace it.
It takes special skills and products to do most commercial roofing well. Excel Roof Systems knows what products work best, and we follow proper techniques in commercial roofing.
The main challenge with flat and low-slope roofs is that they’re made to withstand water, ice, and snow even when conditions are at their worst. And, commercial roofing systems are composed of special materials that resist moisture intrusion. While standard sloped roofs typically have shingles that overlap, allowing water to flow over them, a flat roof is a continuous surface capable of retaining standing water until it channels off or evaporates.
Our SPF products by Conklin means that you’ll benefit from a seamless barrier that insulates and waterproofs your commercial roof resulting in significant energy cost savings. Conklin’s SPF System will also stop leaks and extend the life of your roof. SPF roofing stops lateral water movement and simplifies repairs.
TPO has gained popularity in commercial roofing. Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) materials are ideal for flat roofs. TPO is moisture resistant and contains natural reflective properties to deflect ultraviolet rays of the Sun, which can cause roofing to dry-out and crack over time. TPO tends to conserve energy better within a building, as well.
Categorized as a single-ply membrane, TPO is composed of synthetic materials and fabric reinforcements for extra strength and durability.
The most common type used for residential flat roofing is EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer), a synthetic rubber sheet material. An EPDM consists of a layer of insulation board underneath a membrane of EPDM rubber. The membrane can be laid down without adhesive but instead covered with stones or masonry pavers that promote evaporation. The membrane can also be fastened or glued to the insulation layer.
Torch-down roofing consists of modified asphalt and resin which are melted together using a torch to form a thick waterproof layer, ideal for both commercial and residential use.
Torch-down roofing tends to last from 15-20 years, and is extremely durable. It also requires very little maintenance.
Modified bitumen roofing (MBR) is a flexible coating, similar to asphalt shingles. It comes in rolled sheets. The sheets are rolled onto the roof atop a base sheet membrane.
Modified roofing is often self-adhesive for peel-and-stick installation. It’s also lightweight and performs well in colder weather. Modified bitumen roofing tends to last from 10-20 years.
Excel Roof Systems has extensive expertise with installing multiple roofing types – single-ply PVC, EDPM, TPO, BUR, MBR, polyurethane spray foam systems, metal and shingle roofs.
