What material is the best for your roof? This is one of the common questions every property owner asks when planning a roofing project. With the range of roofing options on the market, it’s overwhelming for anyone to choose the right material that matches their roofing goals.
To get the best value for your money, however, one of the options we recommend is thermoplastic olefin (TPO) roofing, which is common on commercial properties. Learn why it’s increasingly being found on residential roofs these days:
Improved Insulation and Energy Performance
Your roof is subject to heat. If you don’t choose the right material, you’re likely to experience problems with your roof’s insulation and energy performance. TPO roofing eliminates this concern because it’s made from an ethylene propylene rubber with filler materials to improve its durability and strength. TPO has a white surface that allows your roof to reflect heat.
In any given roof replacement project, Roofer Chicks® installs TPO over an insulation board to improve the thermal resistance of your new roof.
A Great Option for Flat Roof Structures
If your home has a flat roof structure, TPO is a great option. TPO roofing has superior durability that allows it to withstand water ponding and its effects. This eliminates your worries of water pooling on your roof when it rains.
Environmentally Friendly Roofing
When it comes to green roofing, TPO is your best bet. As TPO roofing has improved thermal resistance, you can reduce heat buildup and rely less on your air conditioning on hot days. This means a cooler indoor temperature, more comfort in your home and better contribution to energy waste reduction.
