Membrane roofs are one of the most popular options for commercial roofing projects. These roofs are designed specifically to handle the harsh punishment the weather delivers with style, grace, and the attractive appearance.
As the popularity of membrane roofs grows, so do the options available for businesses that are considering these roofs. The selection has improved over the years by leaps and bounds, as well as the availability of these roofs and roofing contractors that are qualified to handle their installation.
Membrane roofing systems provide plenty of options when it comes to design. These types of roofs are available for quite a few commercial roofs. If you want something special or have very specific architectural requirements for your roof, membrane roofs may not be the perfect solution for you. However, if you are interested in a roof that is built to last, can withstand the curve balls that Mother Nature likes to throw its way, or is resistant to the ravages of water and fire, then membrane roofs are a good choice.
Membrane roofing offers many benefits over the standard asphalt roofing systems that have been more common for flat roofs in the past. The first benefit is that these roofing systems tend to seal quite nicely so that there are fewer leaks near seams or joints in the roof. Fewer leaks occur later in the life cycle of the roof as a result.
Most membrane roofs have a reflective coating that bounces the damaging rays of the sun away from the building rather than absorbing them into the building. This helps you in two ways. First, it extends the life expectancy of the roof because it isn’t damaged by the sun’s rays. Second, it helps keep the costs of cooling the building down. Over the life of the roof, it is quite possible that the utility savings alone will cover the cost of the membrane roof.
If you haven’t yet considered whether or not membrane roofs are a good idea for your business, now is a great time to give them a second thought. These roofs have value that goes well beyond a simple covering for your roof. See for yourself why these roofing systems are growing so quickly in popularity across the country.
