Versatile, Flexible &
Easy to Maintain |
Single-Ply Roofing systems are made up of sheets of
various synthetic materials. Because of the elasticity and
weather resistance of these materials, only a single layer
of this material is needed to complete the roof, which
provides effective protection for as long as 15 to 20 years
plus.
There are several different methods for installing single-ply roofing
systems. In the ‘mechanically attached’ method, we use screws and
battens or reinforcement plates. The ‘fully adhered’ approach involves
thoroughly gluing the sheets to the roof insulation. In other cases,
single-ply roofs are ‘ballasted,’ an approach in which they are loose-laid
and held in place by a layer of stone.
Single-ply roofing systems are generally faster and easier to install
than other systems. Even so, to ensure effective waterproofing, proper
installation is critical.
At R.D. Bean, we install three types of single-ply
roofs: EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer), TPO (thermoplastic
polyolefin) and PVC (polyvinyl chloride). To learn more, please contact us
