Commercial Roofing
Commercial roofing refers to the installation, maintenance, and repair of roofing systems on commercial buildings, such as office complexes, warehouses, factories, retail stores, and other non-residential structures. Commercial roofs are typically larger and more complex than residential roofs and require specialized knowledge and materials to ensure their durability and longevity.
Here are some key aspects of commercial roofing:
1. Roof Types: Commercial buildings can have various types of roofing systems, including flat roofs, low-slope roofs, and pitched roofs. The choice of roofing system depends on factors like the building's design, climate, and budget.
2. Materials: Commercial roofing materials vary depending on the type of roof and its intended use. Common materials for commercial roofs include single-ply membranes (TPO, PVC, EPDM), built-up roofing (BUR), modified bitumen, metal roofing, and asphalt shingles for pitched roofs.
3. Installation: Proper installation is crucial to the performance of a commercial roof. It involves ensuring that the roofing materials are applied correctly, that seams and joints are sealed properly, and that any necessary insulation and drainage systems are in place.
