BUILT-UP
The built-up roofing system is compiled from multiple layers of roofing plies (typically 2 to 4) adhered with adhesive or hot asphalt. The roof system is usually surfaced with a gravel layer embedded in hot asphalt or adhesive but can also be surfaced with a granulized cap sheet or coating. It can be installed over a multitude of roof decks and insulations.
SINGLE-PLY
Single-ply roofing systems typically are sheet membrane products over various insulation boards, and roof decks. Some common single-ply roofing systems are TPO, PVC, and EPDM materials. Typical installation methods include mechanically attached, fully adhered, or ballasted.
METAL
Metal roofing systems typically consist of concealed or exposed fastener systems and rely on concealed metal clips attached to the structure, with the majority of the attachment hidden from view. Metal roofing systems have matching metal trim and flashings. These systems one of the longest lasting roof systems available when properly designed and installed.
ARCHITECTURAL SHEET METAL
Architectural sheet metal is the custom fabrication of metal flashings, trim, and sometimes ornate metals utilizing a multitude of materials. The metal types utilized range from conventional metals like steel and aluminum to high-end materials like zinc, copper, lead, and metals with custom colored finishes.
MODIFIED BITUMEN
Modified bitumen roofing systems are multi-ply systems usually consisting of 2-3 layers of a composite roll and surfaced with granules or foils. These systems are typically utilized in low slope roof areas in conjunction with varying insulations and deck systems but are sometimes installed on steep slope substrates.
PRE-ENGINEERED BUILDINGS
Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEBs) are the building components that are manufactured at a factory and assembled on site. Usually, PEBs are steel structures and can be an alternative to conventional structural steel buildings. PEB structural components are fabricated at the factory to the exact size, transported to the site, and assembled at the site, usually with bolted connections.
COATINGS
Roof coatings are typically used in a restorative capacity to prolong the lifespan of an existing roof. Roof coatings can be installed over existing modified bitumen roofing systems, built-up roofing, metal roofing, and spray foam roofing. Multi-year manufacturer warranties also are commonly available.
SLATE
A slate roof is a premium roof system made primarily out of natural slate tiles and other slate roofing materials. It’s one of the most beautiful and long-lasting roof systems on the market. Because of its aesthetics, shingle manufacturers make asphalt shingles to mimic the look of a slate roof.
GREEN ROOF
Green or Vegetative Roofs are composed of several layers including an underlying waterproofing system, soil media, and vegetation. Benefits of this system include lower energy costs, LEED recognition, air quality, reduced stormwater runoff, and an extended roof life.
