Commercial Flat Roof Replacement Services
TPO is the short name for thermoplastic polyolefin. This innovative material is made up of polypropylene, a chemical compound known for its elasticity and durability and commonly used in the manufacturing of a slew of both industrial and household products. Polypropylene is also known for its slippery characteristic, which means it can work well to repel moisture from potential roof wreckers like rain or snow.
The other important component of TPO is ethylene-propylene rubber, a synthetic elastomer related to rubber. TPO material is typically manufactured in sheets that are available in various sizes, and is distinguished by its bright white color. Because of this substance’s ability to resist weather, ozone rays, heat and oxidation, it is an ideal ingredient for this type of application.
The process of installing TPO involves prepping the existing roof by cleaning it, and if needed, removing any existing covering, then laying down the TPO material. Once the TPO membrane has been rolled out over the roof, it is secured to the roof’s cover board with a mechanical tool or adhesive. To complete the TPO installation process and effectively insulate the roof, a hot air gun, or hot air welder, is used to seal the seams of the TPO material together.
Of the various roofing materials available today, TPO is considered by far to be the cheapest and is a viable option for many seeking to increase the protection level on their roof, without the high cost of some of the other options.
