Services
Ballasted Roofs
Ballasted roofs use stone or pavers to secure EPDM membranes, offering durability and cost-effectiveness. Ideal for large rooftops, they reduce installation costs and withstand harsh weather. Midwest facilities benefit from their sustainability and low maintenance.
Fully-Adhered Roofs
Fully-adhered systems use adhesive to bond membranes to insulation, providing uplift protection and energy efficiency. These lightweight roofs are durable, UV-resistant, and easy to maintain, with a 25-30 year lifespan.
Metal Retrofit Systems
Metal retrofit systems add insulation and EPDM membranes to existing steel roofs, improving energy efficiency and longevity. This cost-effective solution extends building life while reducing maintenance needs.
Mechanically Fastened Roofs
Mechanically fastened roofs use high-density fasteners for wind uplift resistance. Available in EPDM or TPO, they offer low maintenance, lightweight construction, and cost savings for moderate wind zones.
TPO Roofing
TPO membranes provide UV resistance and energy efficiency through heat-welded seams. Ideal for large buildings, they are cost-effective, available in multiple colors, and contribute to LEEDS certification.
