Commercial Roof Replacement
Posted on July 10, 2018 by Anderson Industrial Roofing

When your Dallas business finds itself in need of a roofing repair or replacement, you will want to talk with your contractor about the options that you have. Your roofing system is important and should serve your building as a shield from the weather, reinforcement, and surfacing that provides boons like fire resistance and solar reflectivity.
Your selection in roofing systems may seem like a daunting choice, but at Anderson Industrial Roofing, we believe that once you have an understanding of the options, the decision should be simple. Here are four of the most popular commercial roofing systems on the current market.

1. Thermoplastic Commercial Roofing

Thermoplastic roofing systems are one of the most common roofing systems for industrial buildings. These systems consist of a single-ply layer created from ethylene propylene rubber that presents several benefits for commercial buildings that utilize them. Thermoplastic roofing brings buildings that use them superior strength, energy efficiency, and a comfortable working environment.

2. Metal Retrofit Roofing

Metal roofing is a great option because of the simplicity involved. When your commercial building opts for a metal roof, they are choosing minimal maintenance, strong protection against the elements and the prevention of seam problems that can occur within metal buildings.
A retrofit metal roof installed by Anderson Industrial Roofing gives your business a cost-effective and long-term solution to expensive roofing problems.

3. Membrane Roofing

One of the most recently preferred roofing systems is the membrane roof. These roofing systems are rubber and have found their way onto many flat, industrial buildings. Low slope commercial buildings also benefit highly from using a membrane roofing system over standard shingles.
A flat roof membrane system offers a client several benefits that include:

  • UV Resistance,
  • Seamless Leak Protection,
  • And the Exemption of Excess Weight

Roofing membranes are a light and sturdy roofing option that does not require the use of gravel to prove its strength against the elements. It is also superior to asphalt roofing because it has no breaks in its coverage and if it does leak, this system makes leak detection a painless process.

4. Green Roofing

Many business owners have grown to become more environmentally conscious. This is why the option of a green roof system has grown in popularity over the years. This system is typically used on flat roofs and is partially or totally covered by vegetation that is layered on top of a waterproof membrane. The popularity of this roof lies in its overall comfort in a commercial building.
This system reduces heat and improves a roof’s insulation system by leaps and bounds over other options. This means that not only will your business have a roof that lasts a long time, but your building will be saving a good amount on heat and cooling costs.
