Commercial Flat Roofing – Durable, Efficient, and Reliable Solutions
At Tyner Roofing, we specialize in commercial flat roofing solutions designed to provide long-lasting protection for your business. Flat roofs are a popular choice for commercial properties due to their cost-effective installation, low maintenance, and versatility. Whether you’re looking for a roof replacement, repair, or installation, our team has the experience and expertise to provide tailored roofing solutions that meet your needs.
What is Commercial Flat Roofing?
Commercial flat roofing refers to the type of roofing system designed with a minimal slope or pitch, typically less than 10 degrees. Unlike traditional sloped roofs, flat roofs have a more level surface, making them ideal for large commercial buildings such as warehouses, office buildings, schools, and shopping centers. Flat roofs provide the perfect space for additional features like HVAC systems, solar panels, or roof gardens.
However, the lack of slope requires a unique approach to waterproofing and drainage, which is why flat roofs are often built with advanced materials and technology to ensure long-term performance.
Types of Commercial Flat Roofing Systems
There are several types of commercial flat roofing systems, each with its advantages and ideal applications. At Tyner Roofing, we install and service the following systems:
- TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin) Roofing: TPO is a single-ply roofing membrane made from a blend of rubber and plastic. It’s known for being lightweight, energy-efficient, and resistant to UV rays, ozone, and chemicals. TPO is an excellent choice for commercial properties looking to improve energy efficiency with reflective properties that reduce cooling costs.
- EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) Roofing: EPDM is a durable synthetic rubber roofing membrane that’s been a staple in commercial flat roofing for decades. Known for its strength and weather resistance, EPDM can withstand extreme temperatures and harsh conditions. It’s also flexible and easy to install, making it a cost-effective option for flat roofing.
- PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) Roofing: PVC roofing is a strong, durable, and fire-resistant roofing material that offers exceptional waterproofing and energy efficiency. It’s resistant to punctures, tears, and extreme weather conditions, making it ideal for commercial applications that require a reliable roofing solution.
Technology and Terms You Should Know
- Thermoplastic vs. Thermoset: Roofing membranes can be classified into two main categories: thermoplastic (TPO, PVC) and thermoset (EPDM). Thermoplastic membranes can be heated and reshaped, while thermoset membranes are chemically cured and do not soften when exposed to heat.
- Single-Ply Roofing Membrane: This refers to a roofing material that consists of a single layer of synthetic membrane (such as TPO, EPDM, or PVC) applied to the roof deck. Single-ply systems are lightweight, easy to install, and provide excellent protection against water infiltration.
- Ballasted Roof System: A ballasted roof system is a type of flat roof installation where the roofing membrane is held in place with large stones or gravel. This method helps provide stability and protects the roof from high winds.
- Roof Drainage: Proper drainage is essential for flat roofs to avoid standing water, which can cause leaks and structural damage. Drainage systems may include internal drains, scuppers, and overflow drains, all designed to direct water off the roof efficiently.
